Is there actually a source saying its a tib/fib? AVB said fibula, which is easily fixable.

It would be huge if there was no break. Ligaments would be a right bastard as well but tbh, a really nasty injury can pretty much end a career. Or at least end it at the top level and for his sake, more than even us a club, I hope he isn't finished at 25. He should be coming into prime in the next few yrs.

Looked horrible and I expect the worst - at least this season off.

Everything crossed that report is accurate though.

Typical Spurs luck, losing a player to a bad injury in the first few games of the season.... Luckily it doesn't happen every fucking year :rolleyes:

If the Injury is gonna keep him out for a few months keep Carroll or Sigurdson at the club. Paulinho can play DM and Sandro is coming back.
