Just hope he hasn't torn something, would be a massive blow. He's probably the last player I'd want to lose at this point...

Relegation fears...
Honestly. He took a kick form Jan. It looked like a dead leg to me. It didnt happen when he landed or from twisting a joint. Unless JV managed to snap something in TA leg wiht what wasnt even forceful contact, then I think he'll be back in a fortnight

It would be a massive blow for us if he is out for a longer period. Tears and ligament damage can happen without the actual challenge looking bad, so I fear this is serious from his reaction. Hopefully it's not an ACL tear or similar, that would mean he's out for the season. I'd take a two month injury right now, TBH. We can live with that.
But fingers crossed he'll be fine in a week or two.

That's my thoughts
From my things that are the most painful initially are the least issue long term and vice versa - but that's purely my experience

He's the only player we can't replace in this side. I don't think that changes even if we buy a world-class right-sided center half, because the chemistry he shares with Verts and the leadership he displays aren't things you can buy.
Little you can do about this sort of thing, unless you buy two established pairs of CBs and rotate them whenever one suffers an injury to one of the two players.
His reaction, and the reaction of the physios, didn't equate to the sorts of dead legs that footballers routinely get, even in training.

Looked like a twisted joint to me. Verts better step up now or I'll be on his back!

Didn't look remotely like a twisted joint to me. Those are more common from landing awkwardly, not from a small kick from someone

Let's wait until we know facts guys before speculating

True... I mean we won't know until we play Leverkusen on Tuesday
I have to say it's one issue with crappy international breaks ... Nothing sexy to talk about
Id say that's very inaccurate having had some bad football injuries but here's to your optimism!
Looking at it this morning I do not see it being an ACL as the impact did not look huge and he didn't seem to twist or fall awkwardly. The impact could have put his knee out causing massive damage as a worst case but it could also be a dead leg/knee or it could have locked or be severely bruised. Would love it be bruising and for him to be back by arsenal. He really is our most important player.

Looked to me that he turned his ankle on landing, then turned to take weight off and then reached to the back of his knee/calf. Stuck his hand up and went down.
On the ground, face down, he was thrashing his left about and again reaching behind his right knee/calf area
No idea what the injury actually is (nor, it seemed, did the med bods), but don't see it as impact with Verts.
Couln't see anyone nearby with an umbrella, so he should survive.

Poch confirmed it was a knock - I looked again he didn't seem to land awkwardy - looks like he got clipped by jan straight on the knee
