Yeah, you likely don't see a specialist if it's something quick and simple.
If I was being positive, Ndiaye could go back to the left (probably still his best position) and we could give Dibling a little more of a chance to make a go of it?

You hate to become a medical professional but not really much else it can be other than a broken foot.
That’s a minimum 3 month injury by the sounds of it and the way it has been written. 6-8 weeks to heal a broken bone and then another 6 weeks to get back to fitness.
All of this means he will be out for almost the rest of the season.
Not sure why he would stick around here and not go back to City though if that was the case so let’s wait and see.

Could be anything at this point.
Best case scenario is a sprain. Worst is a break, possible ligament damage.

When did he sustain this?
He didn't seem injured at the end of the game.

Finished the game and didn’t seem to have a problem. Never rains but pours

Six weeks to get back to fitness? I’d say more like two.

It’s just bad news all round but especially for Jack. What little chance he had of making the World Cup squad has now gone and he would have wanted to impress to get a deal with us at the end of the season.
At least we have Illi coming back but now will have McNeil on the right for a long while yet. Urgh.

Depends where the fracture is but likely 6 to 8 weeks if I had to guess.
