Thread: How long do you think John Terry Will Be Out For

I reckon he will be out the rest of the season. possible broken jaw or a fractured skull

i think he will out of this season.

Amazing how quickly players recover. He had been discharged from hospital and was celebrating victory a few hours after the injury. Will still take a while for him to recover. I really hope he's going to return the same player though. Something like that can really affect his confidence. Whether people like Chelsea or not, Terry is one of the great role models for the game. He doesn't cheat (ok he's a centre back but still), he doesn't always argue with refs even though he is captain (he even got wrongly s/o at spurs and didn't complain) and he is a brilliant footballer.

I did see a rumour on another forum that he broke his jaw, but why would he be discharged a couple hours after the incident if that was the case. I think thats bollox

yeah, that isn't true. He's already talking to the press, can't recall the incident:
Sky Sports - The Best Sport Coverage From Around The World

looked pretty bad when it happened. He's been a real battler the last few weeks with these injuries and he just cant seem to stay out. good for him.

looked horrible, hopefully he didn't break anything and will be back soon

The FA won't let him play for twelve days after the incident I think it is, but knowing him he'll probably be back after that

the fa will let him play straight away if he's cleared by a doctor

Well he was out clubbing on the night after hed got kicked, so not long Id say...

It's because of safety measures. Just imagine Chelsea played Man Utd this weekend and both teams were level on points. Chelsea may risk him because of the importance of the game, when it would be dangerous too, obviously that's an extreme, but there should be a neutral deciding.
