Serious Injury Woes for Torino, Roma (And Chievo)
There's terrible news for Roma this morning: Alberto Aquilani is expected to be out for two months with a partially torn quadriceps muscle. Having just recovered from an injury in order to be fit for the Man U match, he was stretched off the pitch yesterday in what appeared to be terrible pain, after "feeling" his quad snap. Ouch. The tears the poor lad shed on his way off the field may also have come as much from fear of the diagnosis as from pain Aquilani missed a chunk of last season with a thigh problem, and it must be beyond frustrating to hear that he's going to go through the same thing again now, particularly in light of how important he's become to Roma, and how many injuries they're already carrying.
