TIMBER ON TURF + A NEW STRIKING TARGET EMERGES
Well good morning to you ALL. Are you enjoying the ramp-up in Le Grove posts" I hope so. It feels good to have the pen in hand more regularly and it has been fun to joust in the comments section again with that exact pen.
New Year, new me, same Arsenal propaganda as before.
So, let’s talk Timber.
He’s out in Dubai with the team and he has been spotted on the turf training alone. This is great news for Arsenal fans, but you do need to hold your horses with regard to his return. Getting on the grass is a big step, but also small in the grand scheme of these types of injuries. Fixing the tear is phase one, now he has to rebuild all the muscles around the knee, then he has to regain his fitness… the return is never perfect. Players tend to have mini-set-backs along the way. Then they have to deal with the psychological impact of the trauma associated with that type of injury. Will it heal"
Will it be as strong"
Why is my body failing me in other places"
Can I trust my knee won’t explode if I turn sharply"
It is really, really hard getting back from this type of setback, and it cannot be rushed. If you do it again, return times are way harsher. A late March return would be exceptional, early April will probably be par the course at this point. Still, having a player of that caliber coming back for the business end of the Premier League and the Champions League would be special. So keep ’em crossed for him.
The Times is repo...
