CMS injury

[Brighton Gull]

Thank goodness for sane comments at last. Agree with One Teddy Maybank except in rating CMS. If you looked only at work rate he'd be top & he's helped out pretty well in defence quite often, too. No, he may not have scored all the goals we want but has he always had the service he needs? Michael Owen scored quite a few but only when the ball was put in the right place for him! Craig's had a big part in getting us to our current situation, we should wish him a speedy recovery & thank him for all his efforts this season.

I'm sure CMS is gutted, hope he has a 100% recovery and is playing again from pre-season next year without any niggling injuries that always seem to follow a long lay off.

Ok so you are happy that our top goal scorer is out for the rest of the season when the team is making a push for a play off place to the premier league. Odd if you ask me.

Never said I was happy. I just said that it isn't a massive blow, which it would have been had we not got Ulloa. However, with Ulloa, Barnes in back up and a possible loan signing we're sufficiently covered.

I am massively in favour of CMS. His passion, work rate and desire set him aside from a lot of players and he buys himself a lot of respect.

But... how long can we discuss service when we have Orlandi and Dave pulling strings? He needs to amend his game a bit, and hasn't been able to. This injury, whilst being extremely depressing, may force us to sign a loan striker and that may be the difference between play-offs and just missing out.

Something just doesn't add up.

CMS starts, Orlandi and Dave lose the ability to kick the ball to anybody, according to the radio, and the fans that were there.

There's only one explanation, we are watching our very own:-

Confirmed snapped achillies. 12wks minimum, been there myself and I got my op quicker than him, must have swelling.

Three months doesn't seem like a lot for a ruptured achilles. Perhaps surgical techniques have improved.

That's 3 months walking not playing.

Shit luck! Poor old CMS.

I thought it was a year out? Especially as his sprinting and general mobility is a major part of his game? I know he will get the most advanced medical help, but a quarter of the norm sounds too good.

Hopefully the club are sending him direct to Sweden to the surgeon who corrected Elphick's bodged job.
