Fyraji Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I read the latest article published on WSAG, and in it the author states that many evertonians hold it for certain "Arteta will never be the same player again". This had never occured to me. I always thought Artetas game wouldn´t be too affected by a lengthy lay off. Since he is all about technique, not sprints or jumps, I´ve been thinking all he needs when he gets back is loads and loads of games to regain his tempo and timing. However, after reading that I´m not so sure. What do you all think ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 Not to sure but I think Joe Cole had a similar injury and he has been pretty decent since coming back. A lot of reports also suggested the Yak wouldnt be the same player he was before getting injured but he seems alright to me, hes just as lazy as he was before! With all of our current LT injuries I imagine/hope it will just be a case of getting games under their belt and not picking up any more injuries during the rehab.

Fyraji Posted November 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 Arteta is still only 27, and in his footballing prime. Maybe that´s young enough for a complete recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 ...the author states that many evertonians hold it for certain "Arteta will never be the same player again". The author is talking shite. Unless those (imaginary) Evertonians are all knee surgeons and physiotherapists their opinions are worthless .

Fyraji Posted November 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 The author is talking shite. Unless those (imaginary) Evertonians are all knee surgeons and physiotherapists their opinions are worthless . I really hope you´re right. Rehab is a whole science now a days. Surely a world class player like Arteta will have world class physios and doctors working on him all through his injury. It´s not like he´s at home on the couch is it, he´s probably doing every type of workout possible as he´s progressing. The major issues will be his timing and stamina, and the trainers will probably put him on a special regime when he finally get´s back. Seeing Arteta playing for us again would be a dream come true for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcopaulo Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 as long as he gets physically fit again he will be as good and get better as he gets into his prime years! talent like hes doesn't leave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 There were some rumours a while back that he may be forced to retire through injury, but fortunately they've died a death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, after reading that I´m not so sure. What do you all think ? It's always a risk when a player has had a seriously injury that he may be mentally scarred so not as adventurous or confident in going past players or making challenges. I remember as will many of the older members that Inchy Heath was never the same player after the Brian Marwood incident, Football has moved on a lot since those days though and i'm sure the players have the best physiotherapy and psychological people on board to assist them back to their best. I f*&%?n hope anyway!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Churinga2 Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 as long as he gets physically fit again he will be as good and get better as he gets into his prime years! talent like hes doesn't leave I wouldn't expect an Arteta at 100% this season.
