Kevin de Bruyne

I'm no surprised , the last game, isn't was the beginning yet

I love the fact that José purposefully paired KDB with Lampard for training. No doubt to learn as much from the master as he can!

(and to keep Lamps on his toes!)

Is that wound on Lampard's eyebrows from their collision while training in Bangkok?

It is!

I think it's right after it happened to be honest!

What a stunner! Injury looked pretty bad but let's hope it isn't that bad.

Well when he gets healed I think we can rest assured that he will be vital for the team.

But depending how long he will be out cause he will need to get back into his game.

I cba with the game now, please be ok

Mourinho says there's nothing serious about the injury. No ligament damage done and he'll stay on tour.

He goes on to say he'll be a really key player on the pitch this season.

Really great performance. MOTM for me even though he didn't play much of it. Best result of the day is that he is ok though.

Was worried for some hours but thats great news!

He looked ok, with the team to collect the winner's cup on the stand, looking relax.

read that he was walking without support on his own so doesn't look too serious he should be fine lads we have some great physios.. really great to see him get on score sheet though..

GOD IS BELGIAN ....

Been good these last few games. Glad his injury doesnt seem too bad

Great, it's just the meniscus apparently.

It shouldn't be a great problem. Perhaps just removing a bit of cartilage in his knee I think.

I hope it will not affect his knees during the season. If I remember, last year he had fluid in his left knee after overworking.

Maybe working more with the physio as he has an habit of picking injuries after bad landing. In Belgium, he had already an injury after an akward landing like today.

Saying it is 'just the meniscus' can be slightly misleading, since a tear in the meniscus will often necessitate an (arthroscopic) operation. What JM said though was that even it was a meniscal injury it appears to only be a small one,

[chelsea blue 615]

The first question the Portuguese was asked after the game was on the fitness of Kevin De Bruyne, who injured himself while scoring our second goal. He was happy to report encouraging news.

'When he was on the floor and asking for a change everybody thought the worst, but the first assessment by the doctor is that [it is not] ligaments, and if it's something in the meniscus it has to be a very small injury, so we believe it is not an important injury and hopefully it isn't because the kid is a fantastic player. A kid, but a man on the pitch. Hopefully it's nothing important and he will be ready soon.

'The doctor wants to do some control tomorrow, and after tomorrow if necessary he will go to London. But the doctor's feeling, and I trust him a lot because he is very experienced, is that it's nothing important and during the next week here he can recover.'
