Khiry Shelton [Forward]

[Nicholas Constantino]

A week ago, wed or thurs. The club sucks with info, and they've been tragically wrong with estimates in the past (Calle/Williams), but I've heard a four week estimated return. That gets him back for Montreal away 7/4

Great. Thanks. My experience with a similar MCL injury was also 4 weeks recovery. But that was to get back playing, not back to game fitness. I'm not a professional athlete though, far from it, so 4 weeks is probably pretty close unless there are any set backs.

I have an unnatural love for Chevy Chase, lol

Top 5 all time movie.

I knew I wanted to marry my then girlfriend when I said "whoops" and she responded "whoops? What do you mean whoops? Don't say whoops."

I love christmas vacation.

Look Russ, no lines

I'm really looking forward to his return. He's certainly not the most polished of players but he adds an undeniable level of excitement.

A month later and he's still hurt. NYCFC is the worst with their injury report. Do we even know how he got hurt?

He has a MCL sprain. Can take two months to heal.

Well that's just great

At least he's going to practices, thanks Mix for all your car sing along snaps with Khiry.

MCL sprains are tricky. You don't want to go back prematurely because you risk injuring your ACL which could be disastrous to a career (see Onyewu and Holden).

 

[LionNYC]

There's no point of having him back until he's 100% healthy. Hell, I even go far as to say he might as well take the rest of the season off to get better in the shape this team is in. Adding Khiry to the formation even as a sub wouldn't do much for this team to get three points.

Not sure I agree with this. If we start our best XI we have no one who is a game changer off the bench. Khiry's speed is game changing.

That said, I'd rather sit him down extra games to be sure about his health. Too many injuries already this year.

Do we have a medical staff? It seems like our players are getting injured way too easily.

We do, but how effective are they is the question.

Any chance that he could play against Columbus? I miss this guy

I'd be shocked. I'd expect a bit more chatter before seeing him take the field.
