Skapetis

[Brisbane]

Think he picked up a serious injury early on there

Two ACLs in a row... Ale Faurlin situation.

2 ACL's? I'm sure it was just the 1, a couple of months after he left us.

I'm sure Skapetis will find his level. Would probably do a very decent job either back home in the A-League or by dropping down a few leagues in England.

1 or 2, an ACL is still a phu cker.
Faurlin was never really the same after his first one. Amazing really that he managed to come back after a third.

Agree that it's not a good thing to injure. Plenty of examples of players that have had this injury and come back to their best afterwards though. Alan Shearer did his right at the start of his career and still went on to be one of the best strikers in the world at the time. Same could be said for Ruud Van Nistelrooy.
