After hearing reports today of him being rushed back to hospital for more scans it could be quite a while, probably at least the rest of this month. Hopefully he'll be back for the big'un on the 15th April though
I wouldn't risk him before that though games like Sheff Utd at home are just not worth it.

I don't understand why he was rushed back for the carling cup final, Mourinhio has only made the matter worse than what it was.

how- he's now out with a completely unrelated injury to the one he suffered in porto

He merely passed his fitness test against Arsenal, its not as if he was training properly a week before.

I take your point, maybe he should have preserved him for the premiership and not risked him for the CC but the one the fact he got a boot in the face has got nothing to do with his injury against Porto.
