I wasn’t overly impressed when we signed him, but have to say, I’ve liked what I’ve seen of him. It’s a big loss for us.5

And you’ve asked him what he knows about the takeover right?el-pietro said:

On a serious note didnt Gomez do his ACL in 2015 when with the U21s? - He's only really recovered this season!!2

@ForeverAddickted He was then out for another four months returning to training in November 2016.

I still hasn't yet been confirmed. As our cardigan wearing sage once said.......WIOTOS0

I don’t wear cardigans and I don’t think I’ve ever said that either..?golfaddick said:I still hasn't yet been confirmed. As our cardigan wearing sage once said.......WIOTOS
Golfie you are starting to worry me
On a serious note, it’s a bad one for Clarke. Expecting an announcement tomorrow, if not Wednesday at the latest, once the doctors have had a final look at the scans.3 -
I rate him more than Reeves, it's bad for us too. Do hope it's not as bad as feared.4

Sorry when I meant recovered I meant returned to the First Team If you look at the period of games he played between his injury and this season he was very much limited to FA Cup appearancesDazzler21 said:

Partly as Klopp was wanting to ease him back into First-Team Football

With a number of Charlton players currently spending time in the treatment room, Head of Medical Services Alastair Thrush has provided the latest on their injuries and expected return dates…
Billy Clarke will spend the next eight to nine months on the sidelines after rupturing his Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) against Blackburn Rovers on Saturday.
The Addicks’ number 10 sustained the injury to his left knee with 21 minutes played at Ewood Park and scans have revealed that it will keep him out for the remainder of the 2017/18 season.
Clarke will see a knee specialist on Wednesday and, after undergoing reconstructive surgery, he will then begin an eight-month period of rehabilitation.
Charlton’s Head of Medical Services Alastair Thrush said: “Unfortunately, Billy won’t play again this season and everyone is really gutted for him.
“He’ll have surgery in the coming weeks, once the knee has settled down, and after that he will have around an eight-month period of rehabilitation before he can return to play. We’re hopeful that he could be back for the start of next season.
“This is one of the toughest injuries for a player to accept but Billy has been through it before. He suffered the same injury to his other knee in 2010, so he knows what to expect from his rehabilitation and he will be seeing the same specialist now as he did then.”
Jake Forster-Caskey also picked up an injury against Rovers and is likely to be out until early in the new year with a quad strain.
Ahmed Kashi and Patrick Bauer are targeting the New Year’s Day fixture against Gillingham at The Valley as their return date. Kashi is recovering from a small stress response in his heel bone while Bauer has a high ankle sprain.
Ricky Holmes remains out with a mild quad strain but could be back for our Boxing Day clash at Southend United.
Tariqe Fosu has begun running again after sustaining a significant injury to the tendon of his right thigh against Milton Keynes Dons, but will require another four weeks of rehabilitation in order to allow it to fully recover.
Lewis Page could return to training in six weeks. After recovering from a hamstring operation, he developed an injury to his Achilles tendon which has required a period of specific rehabilitation.0 -
So Bauer, Kashi, Forster-Caskey, Holmes, Clarke and Fosu, who would all be in the first 18, most of them in the starting line up, are all currently out.
I doubt any other team in our division has this level of injuries to their first team squad3 -

Bloody hell that update is grim, Clarke gone... Bauer, Kashi and JFC out for a bit, Holmes out for at least one match...
We'll be playing the under 9s soon.1 -
Poor chap. Hope he comes back stronger and fitter next season.0
-
Gutted for him.0

Had no idea he did his other cruciate a few years back. Must be absolutely gutting to have that injury happen twice to you in your career.1

Shame the bad weather was a week or 2 ago, we could've deliberately left the covers off to get some home games postponed.sam3110 said:So Bauer, Kashi, Forster-Caskey, Holmes, Clarke and Fosu, who would all be in the first 18, most of them in the starting line up, are all currently out.

Hard luck for Clarke as he always did a job, personally they are different players but feel if Reeves can get fit/stay fit he will get more goals and assists. Just need to hope that happens imo , failing that push JFC/Aribo further forward.ForeverAddickted said:

Clarke or Reeves?
I dont think it will be critical to our season but he has done well and its another option we will have to dip into our reserves/youngsters potentially.
PS- probably the best position we could cover imo , other than CB. Would be panic stations LB/ ST/ Wingers0 -
Really sorry for Billy. What on earth does the team for Saturday look like? Time for Messrs Reeves and Marshall to step up big time.4

Exactly this.Sillybilly said:Really sorry for Billy. What on earth does the team for Saturday look like? Time for Messrs Reeves and Marshall to step up big time.
With or without their injuries these were our marquee signings over the summer.
So far, the two understudies have rightfully kept them out the team. Hopefully, they will step up when we really need them.0 -

"Billy Clarke is also progressing well with his ongoing strength exercises. It is hoped that he could start some outdoor running drills next week, if planned strength tests show that he has enough strength and control in his left knee.
All being well, the Addicks’ number 10 should be involved in the conditioning elements of the squad’s pre-season preparations, though he will not be ready for a full return to match-play until the beginning of September."18
