I personally would rather let him sit through the bye to continue to let him strength his knee, let him slowly get back to full speed, and then let him go crazy. I’m not a doctor and definitely don’t know what he is capable of or not, but I’d like to see the conservative route here to ensure the best possible long term outcome. My fear is that there will be injuries in Germany due to the stadium conditions. Seen a lot of it already in London.
The only acceptable answer to this is when he’s medically ready to play. Obviously everyone wants to see him play asap.
