Zanetti with achilles tendon injury

As much i don't like Inter, Zanetti is fenomenal player and it will be very sad to end his career like this. He won't be able to continue his style of play after injury but he deserve to play one or two more games next season and then end his career with dignity and respect from his fans.

Zanetti: 'My career is not over'


It is now official – Javier Zanetti has snapped his left Achilles tendon and will be out of action for up to eight months, but insists “my career is not over.”

The Inter captain turns 40 in August, but that is not denting his confidence after today’s setback.

“My career is not over,” he declared outside the clinic where he underwent the tests.

“After such a long time, I needed a tyre change... I want to come back stronger than ever. It’s just a shame I can’t give a hand to my teammates, but I have faith we can reach a Europa League spot.

“Will Andrea Stramaccioni stay? That is up to the club. They want to make a stronger Inter and one that I’ll be playing in too. I thank all my colleagues for their kind words.”

So Zanetti really is human?

Yes but he's on the #kobesystem. Different animal, same beast.

You are a hero to us so don't let it end this way.

i cnt wait to hear the plauds in the guseppe meazza when the legendary man enters the pitch after months of injury, i wish i can be there that day,
hope he gets back as soon as possible

Please stop saying Kobe and Zanetti have the same battle.

Kobe is 34. Zanetti is turning 40 soon.

Zanetti >>>>> Kobe

Zanetti is a god. Kobe is just human.

Zanetti, 40, then went on to discuss his recovery process from a serious Achilles injury and revealed that he could make his comeback halfway through November.

"I've started running again – I missed that! I'm still training on my own but I'll have a test on Tuesday and if everything's okay I'll start upping the workload.

"I need to build up the calf muscle a bit. I'm not too far off returning: hopefully it will be around mid-November."

He is not from this planet, seriously.

We are not worthy.

two years ago one member on GL said that he cant wait until Zanetti turns forty so he can hear the commentator wondering how a forty years old can do that. There you have it, GL member, it happened

Ridiculous...Estimated recovery time up to 9 months,Zanetti returns in 6 months and 12 days.At the highest level...Started playing like he never set foot off the field.

Amazing moment for Interisti and any true football fan

Kovacic assist

Beast. The only current Inter player who is almost universally respected, even by Milan fans.

Even Livorno players wanted to celebrate with him after that goal

A legend on and off the pitch. I will never forgive Pékerman and Maradona for ostracising him.

Legend.

Unbelievable athlete & proffesional . Legend .

Eternal Zanetti returns!

When Alves retires in 3 years, I hope we get Zanetti as his successor.
