Gemmel Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 If it is broken, I would have thought we would have heard Sunday or the latest yesterday... Unless the club wish to keep it secret, which would then make no sense to release the news today. Unless Billyb has some inside information that none of the sports channels have heard. I am of course wishing it not to be true ....and maybe trying to convince myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Albert Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 Sods law would dictate that VVD breaks his foot the first PL game after Fonte's departure. I hope it isn't true.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Gotsmanov Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 Sods law would dictate that VVD breaks his foot the first PL game after Fonte's departure. I hope it isn't true.. I know I want to believe he is OK but I was encouraged to see him at 7.16m though the match day uncovered. He was not limping at all and if he had broken his foot I would expect some response.

St_Tel49 Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 Really? Was a pure accident! It happened right in front of where I sit. It was a petulant, deliberate stamp because he had been outplayed by VVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasoneuelllfanclub Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 If saints waiting until tomorrow to make decision then it suggests the injury not bad. If he has a broken foot I am sure they would know by now and he would obviously be ruled out. Sent from my SM-A300FU using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St_Tel49 Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 That's why I said realistically, Charlie. I don't see him playing Wednesday and I'm not convinced about "dosing him up" and risking further injury. "Dosing him up" would only be necessary if he was medically unfit to play - and that, IMHO, amounts to negligence and a failure to act in the best interest of the player..

Whitey Grandad Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 I don't think it takes 24 hours to confirm a broken foot from a scan. Very difficult to get a definite diagnosis. Either way the treatment and recovery plan is much the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.comsaint Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 I would imagine taking a whack on his foot like he did would have been very painful and would take a few days to settle down ; swelling, bruising, etc. I fully expect him to miss both the semi-final and the Arsenal game. Anything other and I will be very chuffed and surprised in equal measure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lickierambert Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 I'm yet to see evidence VVD is actually human so don't believe he has broken a foot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wurzel Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 I think he may have been wearing a protective boot. He wasn't , he was wearing his playing boots, including the one he took off whilst on the pitch which would presumably indicate no immediate swelling.

Saint_clark Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 Two explanations for the club keeping quiet. One, they want to keep it under wraps so that he's a surprise for Liverpool on the teamsheet. Or the other, that he's out for a while and they don't want to announce it in case it affects ticket sales (i.e, people who were on the fence don't bother).

Shroppie Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 Can't see any reliable info here. There are many metatarsals in the foot that can easily be broken by a stamp like that. Although the bones are small, they can be difficult to heal. I'm still livid that Vardy wasn't penalised. It was deliberate and should have been red.

doddisalegend Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 Just watching the matchday uncovered at 7.15 VVD is seen walking back down the tunnel after coming off both his boots are on and there is no sign of a limp of anything. https://southamptonfc.com/news/2017-01-23/matchday-uncovered-southampton-leicester-city-premier-league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doddisalegend Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 Saw this on the O/S. Puel says it was VVD's ankle not his foot that was injured could be a translation thing I guess "van Dijk, he is having a scan and I am waiting for the results at the moment,” said Puel. “It was a good kick on his ankle, and he could not continue in the game yesterday. "It’s not serious, but I don’t know if he can participate in this game. We will see in the next days before the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlesaint Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 is this getting like the ear lobe thing ?

spyinthesky Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 Don't know if it has been mentioned before but we lost our in form central defender, Mark Wright, with a broken leg in the last (FA Cup) semi final v Liverpool In an earlier SF v Everton our influential midfielder, Steve Williams, was hampered by injury so we don't have the best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Wayman Posted 24 January, 2017 Share Posted 24 January, 2017 Realistically how can we risk VVD? If he only lasts for 15 minutes we've lost a sub which Puel could not afford to do as he'll want to pack his defence later on especially if we nick one and they have to score 3 to win.

Whether that is now the norm after that South American team got wiped out, I don't know, but Virgil was not in the first group. Probably getting as much treatment here as possible before flying up later, I would hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
