Dejan Kulusevski

people are posting on reddit that he tore his ligament and broke his kneecap
so its a complicated surgery and healing process, with a high chance he will not be the same again
 
He knew he wasn't making it back in time this season. The World Cup was a slight possibility due to the later date but even then he probably still wouldn't get his fitness to the level required.
Months ago he probably thought he'd be back for us and be off to the WC with Sweden.

He's just not met his milestones in recovery. For all we know, he still might not be. It's been a complicated recovery.

As a fan, you certainly feel in the dark about it.

I'm not even sure whether he gets full pre-season training and can play in any pre-season games.
 
He has so much fight and determination. It’s going to he hard for him to return to playing and at his past levels BUT if anyone can do it then I have faith that he will. He is so head strong and won’t stop trying.

with injuries like this, it doesn't just depend on sheer will and hard work
there is a fair chance his body just won't be as good as before

I get that, that’s why I said if. He was someone I rated so highly and I’d be gutted if this is it, so I have to believe. We’ll know in a few months I guess.
 
I hope you are both wrong, he is only 26 so we may have not seen the last of him. Lets hope so.

One of our best ever January transfer windows was picking up Bents and Kulu.

Bents steps on the pitch nowadays and can still play well. For me, not the player we had before the injury though. It is all very much compromised.

With Kulu, I'm wondering whether we'll end up having similar conversations about him. I'm definitely left wondering whether he could ever be a wide player again. I guess the only positive school of thought is that Kulu was quite one footed and it was his right patella where he's had the issues.
