I think he had surgery didn’t he? Google indicates “If your meniscus was repaired, it can take 6-9 months to return to sporting activities. Meniscus tear and repair surgeries tend to be effective.” So I doubt any earlier and possibly slight later…

The Tesco picture, one page back #2164, shows him in a knee brace shortly after the op, so it sounds like that's no longer needed, or maybe he had it off for some physio.
Had it off? I was never offered that type of physio after my surgery.

I had a very painful, debilitating meniscus tear in July: "might need an op

Just wish we had a tall, fit, athletic understudy - but we seem to prefer to buy wingers and CMs to CF and FBs.

I thought that we did have a fit, athletic, and average height understudy. The problem we did not have an understudy for the understudy!?

I heard it as well. Could just mean back in training. Still can't see him before Dec
Yes, to be fair, three weeks before first team training and then another three weeks to get in the squad. That’s end of November so plausible.

Be good to get him back beg December. Really looking forward to seeing the big man.

I would imagine meant back in full training in three weeks. Great to have him back for the bush December Xmas and New Year schedule. Teams will be completely unprepared for him which will be to our advantage and that includes Arteta who imaginebjs fastidious in his preparation versus opposition.

Right. 8th October. It is now officially late 2024. Welcome to Brentford Igor. :bounce:

I'm not expecting a return much before January but it is good to see him making progress in his rehab
So good! I think that because I watched so much of him at Bruges (including two live games) it's the most excited I've been about a new signing ever. I'm certain he'll terrify Premier League defenders and will turn us into a proper force up front. If Thomas can somehow find a way of he and Wissa playing together with Bryan drifting then I think that would be a dream front three.

That was against Aldershot wasnt it ? He still needs time to adjust to the pace of the EPL
AFC Wimbledon but your point still stands - I am not expecting him to set the PL alight this season, it should be used to bed him in for next season when he has had a full preseason behind him and half a season to adjust.

Mean while we all secretly hope he tears up the EPL straight away !

I remember watching a video of of the YouTube analysts and he said something about not being sure Thiago would come good as he scored so many of his goals from the stuff yard box and he may not be able to get that sorry off space here.

He just not have looked at one of our team shot maps from last season.

Damn, if only we had access to some kind of data analysis. :(

If he hits the PL like he did in the pre-season friendlies before his injury we have something very special to elevate us
Unfortunately it was the singular and not plural.

Vaguely remember seeing the same video. IIRC the YouTuber was a Rara, so no surprise he was chatting nonsensical b*llocks.
