Amdouni serious injury?

[Tricky Trevor]

Saw some of the club videos on players either in the gym or doing medicals. Some of the lunges they were doing with weights in hand were scary.
Absolutely no doubt that squillion pound footballers get a thorough medical before signing, if only for the insurance company.

[Jakubclaret]

Clearly wasn't the same kind of injury, one takes 12 months to recover from, the other a month, so pointless comparison.

Did it really recover or was it just temporarily suspended. He had surgery so it wasn't a band aid plaster job. When something goes like that it's never quite the same again.

[expoultryboy]

Been out all day , has he got a serious injury ?

[fidelcastro]

Yep, because no player has ever recovered from a serious injury in the history of football, have they?

[Jakubclaret]

Of course they have but more often than not they are never quite the same exceptions of course.

Was it even the same knee?

[fidelcastro]

Yeah, and it's all the club's fault apparently!

[Jakubclaret]

Was it even the same knee?

You'd reasonably assume so. Bloody hell we have got problems if both have gone.

[fidelcastro]

Exceptions?

Based on your logic, Lazio and Rangers should never have gone anywhere near Gazza!

I wish we hadn't, mind!

They wouldn't have done if commercially it didn't make sense the same applies to us.

Ramsey is commercially valuable, is he?

I have come to the conclusion you're bored, and trying to be funny, but failing, I won't be assisting in your little game any more

For want of a better description the recruitment team have make a royal horlick. Without labouring the point the importance of research.

No they haven't. Ramsey's injury could have happened to any player.

I suspect you know this, but are just being deliberately obtuse. If you're not, then you're really not very bright.

Indeed it could but he'd be the favourite to somebody who hadn't experienced that sort of injury before.

The recruitment team rely on medical professionals to undertake clinical assessments. I don't think our club has been an outlier in number of injuries because strangely other clubs suffer injuries too.

He'd be far from the favourite

I agree I've always maintained that other clubs do suffer injuries as well I just question to what degree. I'm not quite sure how many times I have to concede that point it keeps getting mentioned as if I'm refusing to acknowledge that fact.

The way you're going on, you'd think our club suffers more injuries than all other clubs, and injuries can't come out of the blue post clinical assessment and medical process.

[dougcollins]

Put the spade down fella.

[CharlieinNewMexico]

We did a video last year or a couple of years ago after someone signed ( can’t remember who) which focused on the medical in detail.

Maybe Jakub could watch that and let us know what we’re doing wrong.

[exilecanada]

Do we actually know he's suffered a serious injury? The Turkish post hasn't been confirmed or denied Amdouni's social media post only says he's patient, maybe he's patiently waiting for a move away from Burnley?

[Jakubclaret]

As it's already been mentioned on other threads (transfers) in terms of medicals & outsourcing & numerous changes it hardly instils me with confidence to watch a video further reinforced with my belief that some of the signings health wise are on shakey ground.

[Dark Cloud]

I think it was Weghorst. The camera followed him around the clinic (Manchester I think?) as he was having his various medical checks.

The one with Laurent jumping up and down with those big weights was mental

[Hanoverusaclaret]

An injury so "serious" that a month later he signed for Middlesboro on loan. If you have to stretch the truth to support your argument... your argument probably isn't that great tbh

Didn't Ramsey have a serious knee injury playing for Norwich on loan.

By all means downplay it but that's how it was described.

Regardless it's still an issue to this day & something which had occurred previously despite you claiming it hadn't.

[KRBFC]

Iv just read through 3 pages and still don’t know if Amdouni is injured or not.

3 pages of certain posters arguing with Jakub for the 1000th time. They can’t help but bite and get a kick out of ruining this place yet nothing is done.

I won't post again on this thread even if quoted so we can find out if amdouni is injured & what's actually wrong with him.

[rob63]

Why wouldn't people focus on Amdouni when you're suggesting any injury he has suffered now should've been picked up two years ago through the medical. You referred specifically to and focused on Amdouni. It's idiotic.

Plus, he had a medical when he went out on loan!

Take no notice, I refuse to engage with him now.......he's never wrong, just says, lets agree to disagree. As if he's being magnanimous! Classic passive aggressive move.

[aggi]

I feel the blocking option needs an update so you can also block posts quoting those you've blocked. It'd help to make a jakubclaret infested thread more palatable.

[dibraidio]

Wasn't Sean Dyche particularly proud of the fact that we had so few injuries at one point? In both relegation seasons when he was manager injuries to key players definitely didn't help.
Under VK it struck me that we had more injuries than before but that might just be because we had a bigger squad.
I hope that Amdouni will be back sooner rather and I wish him well if he is injured but I don't think his injury will be as anywhere near as influential as the loss of Dean Marney way back when.

[Guller Bull]

Anything concrete yet on this? I hope it doesn’t become another mystery cloaked in an enigma.

Don’t think we need to know the ins and outs just whether he is injured and whether it’s short, medium or long term prognosis.

If he is injured, good luck to the lad on his recovery.

[RVclaret]

Being reported in Switzerland that’s its a cruciate ligament tear.

I saw that, but where and how did it happen?

It's an odd one.

Training?

Presumably in training

Looks like it.
Players often pick up injuries in training, it's not uncommon.

[ArmchairDetective]

Helpful to see a post about the original topic.

That's a real shame for him if so. Not sure if he was going to stick around this summer but was looking forward seeing him in a Burnley shirt again.

Wishing him a speedy and full recovery if true.

[jlup1980]

This is a blow. I was hopeful he would play a big role this season. There's no doubting his quality. I think he would have benefited from being part of a more pragmatic approach.

[Darnhill Claret]

Zeki, always sorry to see any player have an injury that requires surgery. Wishing you a complete recovery. Hope there are no complications and that you are back training before the final few games of the season. Keep your chin up. Stay strong. UTC.

[Goliath]

Could be back for the run in to the season potentially

[ollieclarets8]

Partial or complete tear? Seems to make quite a difference but got to expect at least 6 months out.

[claretlegend]

Does anyone know if clubs have insurance on this sort of thing or do we now have to pay his wages while he's injured?

I hope his injury is not as serious as first thought? His comments would indicate a lengthy period away from the game.

I must admit that I didn’t think he would ever play for Burnley again after the issues towards the end of the transfer window last September.

[warksclaret]

It can’t be helped as injuries happen.He is one of our squad that’s never made an impact though has shown flashes of brilliance
Can’t help think Burnley may feel they made an error here.I think he would have been sensational in the Championship but instead of selling him put him out on loan without the obligation to buy. It’s possible he did not want to play in the EFL in which case he is no good to us.Suspect moving him on in the future could be as big a challenge as Wout.The only advantage being the squad size comes down by one

[dougcollins]

So, just like last season.

He'll have no impact on us.

[CyrilEbokiPoh]

He will because he was either going to be playing or sold. Either way would have been useful!

Shame for him personally as well. Especially in a world cup year
