According to Pravda, they expect to know more about TV's latest "setback" today.
I fear the worst, and doubt we will see him again this season and maybe way beyond that.
If so then surely Wenger must sign someone immediately, no matter what the cost.

This is disgraceful, someone at Arsenal needs sacking (for once I don't mean Wenger)! The Arsenal medical team have taken 5 MONTHS to decide on surgery! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: That's appalling!
Well now Wenger has to sign someone, cheap Frenchman anyone??

i did think the same, 5 months to realise surgery might be an option? If he had had surgery 5 months ago, he might be back now or soon possibly...likely by march i would have thought which is when TV expects to be back

Vermaelen set for Achilles op
Defender facing six more weeks out of action
Arsenal defender Thomas Vermaelen is set to undergo surgery on his Achilles injury which will rule him out for six weeks.

Vermaelen has been out of action since suffering the Achilles problem while on international duty at the start of September.

Arsenal had been hoping that Vermaelen would return to action this month, but they have now decided to send under the knife to correct the problem.

The Belgian international is hoping to be back playing in between four to six weeks after undergoing the surgery in Sweden.

"I'll undergo this operation in Sweden," said Vermaelen.

"According to the specialist who will operate on me it's a little tendon situated beside the Achilles tendon which is provoking the irritation."

Hmm... TV goes from being 1 game out, to being virtually retired, and by the standards set by our supposedly great back room staff, this is probably one of their greatest achievements...

Is it me or has TV5 picked up the RvP11 bug for chocolatitus?

Last season he suffered fronma suspected broken leg...he also limped out when we lost at the Lane.....and then in August he like RvP and his injury jinx, got nobbled playing for his country.

Holland and Belgium have a lot to answer for...these two nations have effectively stolen over a year of football combined in injuries for OUR two players?

Two key players losing more matches through injury than they actually play.

Does anyone know how many times Vermaelen has played for Arsenal and how many matches he has missed due to injury?

Until he got injured last season I don't think he missed a league game
