KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum The real mistake with Lucas

I thought the real mistake was the medical staff not taking the injury serious enough in the first place. They were letting him run around on a damaged knee.
We had subs available and should have used precaution. Im not upset he played. We should go hard after any trophy we can get. Success breeds more success.

Well they are only humans, they don't have computer esque tracking devices, they can only assess it and take action based on their knowledge and experience, other players would of carried on and shook off the injury but unfortunately for Lucas it was a bad one.

If you've ever experienced the type of injury he got it's sometimes difficult to assess as the knee often functions pretty well despite the injury. after the initial pain subsides the knee often feels pretty sore but playable. It's exactly what happened. Lucas tried to play and realized then it's impossible. Not the physio's fault and him getting up and moving on it did absolutely no more damage. The damage was done.
Good luck to the poor lad!

Shows how hard the lad is - he wanted to run it off....now that's playing for the shirt. Get well soon Lucas.

True, he was even smiling right after the tackle... Hmm.. sometimes things are not what it looks to be...

Speedy recovery, RED Lucas!
