How is his recovery going? When will he be back? We really need him back as soon as possible

He went for his first pool run 3 weeks ago, it would be a miracle if he was back before November/December or so. They first said he was possibly out 12 months, and that was in May, but that has been revised.

Usually for Achilles it is 3-6 months. But we shouldn't rush it. He has been able to work out already in June tho and from there it is easier. The hard part is learning to run again but when you can support weight again it will come quickly. Also luckily it was his left foot so he wont lose his technique in his right.he might take a while to get his pace back. On the bright side he has enough time to fix his back issues and will probably come back an absolute tank if he also trains his upper body correspondingly.

I've never heard of a fully ruptured Achilles only taking 3 months to get back to playing. You usually can't put weight on the leg or at least a month of two. Then it's a long, slow recovery

Hopefully he will lose nothing of what he was showing right before the injury. With Hazard and Kante clearly best player. He will surely feel like a new signing. And there will certainly be the positive headaches for Lampard regarding the selection.

We need him but i'd prefer to see him playing in a central mildfield position, he's the Lampard's sucessor, he stands out because ( like Pogaba) he's got the physical potentiality to be a defensive asset and the full technical panoply to be a very efficient offensive player. We could try to play someday with a mieldfield  Kante - RLC - Barkley.

Will he interesting to see where he fits in under Lampard.

I can't see him taking Mount's place as he suits perfectly the style Lampard wants.

I think he'd be wasted in the 2 deeper positions though. I really do. Think we've either got to go 433 and use him with Jorgi and Kante or play him as a 10. He got a good amount of goals last season by getting in and around the box. Yes he can still do that in the 2 but hes more attack minded, I really hope he plays more advanced.
