If i were part of the medical team, i would completely shut it down for a week and go to ice+electrode treatment. Try it again in a 7-10 days and see if he can do some movement with no symptoms.

I really don't like the Madrid medical team.

do we know that it was was swelling? i think they just mentioned about the pain coming back

It has to be. Pain is not something that is a real concern with tendon issues... you can easily practice and play with it as it has nothing to do with the injury. I partially tore a ACL a few years back and, once healed, i had some pain once in a while because scar tissue would get released. But i could do as much activity as i wanted without worry as long as there was no swelling (swelling happens when there's blood still releasing into the area). A sprain is a tear.

Either the pain is something he cannot cope with personally although the knee is fine. Or he was medically asked to sit because the pain was caused by swelling. Would be king of a pansy if it's the first case... and i doubt it.

ok, thx for the explanation

Sahin will wear number 5 right?

Only if Gago leaves. Has any player at Real been forced to give up a number without having to leave?

albiol for example

and gago gave up number 8 when kaka arrived in madrid

but definitely he will... just thinking if coentrao will hold the number 15 or try to use the 5

Yeh true. A bit disrespectful but who give a shit about gaga.

Varane for no 5, Sahin can take Canales' 16 or the 19 vacated by Varane. He can take Kaka's 8 when he leaves.

Varane 5 could be. 5 is more of a defender. Right?

Exactly.

Sahin is more likely to get the n.5, there is a direct connotation to Zidane here, and as a playmaker who was called the turkish zidane in his youth, it's more appealing commercially.

so he will be zidane's shadow. living under the name of a legend instead of being one on his own.

imo, if i am sahin ill avoid that.

why? ronaldo isnt living in di stefano' shadow, and neither is benzema with ronaldo.

It's only a reminder that the number belonged to a great playmaker, and Sahin is the new one.

5 was also Sanchis number and Zidane wasn't living in his shadow either...

simply because of this comment

nah, simply making the connection between the number, and the playmaking role, which previously belonged to Zidane, as he was our last GREAT playmaker.

Sahin is next, im sure if he gets it, the press will compare both, but it's not an issue.

just like i said

Di Stefano wore the 5 from what I've heard, and 5 is supposed to be a defenders number, which is why it should go to Varane not Sahin. No reason to prolong our silly tradition of making our playmakers wear 5.

true , gago wore 5 gago ffs!!! there is no tradition!!!

Gago was supposed to be a playmaker, he flopped.

Balon D'Or winner, Just Sayin'

Varane is still 18 (!) he has time to inherit a number later.

I'd give the five (Or 8 ) To Sahin instead.
