Great to have him back, he really stepped up last season and came up with some amazing moments. Then he got injured and we went to shit.
I doubt it tbh. He’ll still likely be a fair way behind Skipp and PEH fitness wise, even if he is a much more talented player. Hopefully he can be back on the bench for the Chelsea match.Could he be on the bench Monday?
Ange said in his presser that no chance for Fulham, but they will assess him over the next few weeks. I’d expect a return at the middle part of November.Could he be on the bench Monday?

4 games then another international break, so depends on how slowly they want to integrate himI reckon bench for Chelsea.
I'd be surprised if we see him start a game as early as late November. I think realistically late December. Its such a huge injury to return from, even a player with his incredible quality will take a long time to get back to the sharpness and level required to start.I forget that he was basically our second best player last season.
Keep in mind though, while it’s great he will be back. It will take two months for him to get back to actual match sharpness.
Ange will probably use him as a sub a lot over the next six weeks. Doubt we will see him start a game until late November.
Agreed, and it's as much about building confidence as anything I guess. Even for a guy as motivated and confident as Bentancur. Every minute he's out there, the injury moves further to the back of his mind. 10 minutes here, 20 minutes there and the knee is still fine etc.I'd be surprised if we see him start a game as early as late November.

Compared to Bentancur?Raya looks shit
wrong threadCompared to Bentancur?
Almost certainly fat fingers.WTF, right backatcha @ssamme !!!
That's what I always assume. The alternative is that someone could possibly disagree with me on something and that is simply preposterous.Almost certainly fat fingers.
Actually at that point in the season prior to his injury, he was our best player.I forget that he was basically our second best player last season.

Imagined without the injury, we could have still been playing under Conte because he would have bailed us out too many times.Actually at that point in the season prior to his injury, he was our best player.
Devastating to lose him for so long. A player who has everything in his game.
