I can't believe the club weren't aware of this

 

Although many hip/groin/pelvic pains can mimic each other there should be a pretty strong suspicion of intracapsular pathology from orthopaedic testing - and strong suspicion should be investigated immediately with scans and specialist referral

 

My GUESS is that the club did have prior knowledge and took the decision to try to manage the symptoms and try to get him through to an appropriate time - ie either toward the end of the season or immediately after the last meaningful game - then do the surgery

 

That approach failed so there was no other option but immediate surgeryg

Sorry for the delayed reply iv'e been at a funeral all afternoon, however, you may be right,especially taking the quote below into account confirming a previous past medical history to his other hip, I was only speculating on the type of surgery that may have been performed and discounting osteoarthritis and a total hip replacement.

i'm only saying what he told me, he had the other hip done about 3 years ago and it's still holding up so I don't know

he also said the surgeon advised him to think of early retirement to save problems in later life

he's expecting to be out 4-6 months

 

The only other injury that I can think of that could be explained as bone on bone is Femoroacetabular Impingement which is also common in sportsmen this is where the neck of femur knocks against the edge of the socket. Surgery for this can be keyhole 3 to 4 months recovery, open surgery up to 12 months (had to google the recovery time and the diagram).,

Pincer femoroacetabular impingement

Also like to add that a Labrum tear as I speculated too earlier can accompany Femoroacetabular Impingement.

While I understand a lot of you in saying it's time for Abdi to step up, as it should be an opportunity for him to get more game time and in a more familiar position, but I think it's more important for Bannan to now step up.

 

Bannan hasn't had a great season, through his own form and also being played in various positions. But now he should get a run of games in his "best" position. He now needs to be as influential as Lee was, in terms of setting our tempo, creating goals, getting assists and most importantly, scoring goals. He doesn't score anywhere near enough goals for a player of his ability and he must add that to his game, for the teams sake to soften the blow of this huge loss.

 

Along with Hutch, Lees, Forestieri & Westwood, Kieran Lee is our most important player and this is a massive, massave blow for us. He really does help set a tempo for our team, a vital cog in the way we play, with and without the ball. 

 

Gutted for Kieran Lee and gutted for all of us. Hope he makes a speedy and good recovery. Massive loss.

 

Agree. I think Lees performances have made him a shoe in for the central spot and perhaps Bannan has suffered as a result. (though I still think a triumvirate of those two and Hutch would work in a different formation).

 

Bannan hasn't been in sparkling form, though his effort cannot be questioned. I hope that (should his own niggles not play up) that he can start to show the quality which he showed last season.  I don't think it's through lack of trying though I must say. He's been attempting some of the same sorts of passes that he was doing last season but they haven't been coming off and he's been on the end of the "hollywood ball" pelters. But i think it says something about the man that despite the groans he still always demands the ball and hasn't gone hiding. Still keeps trying the passes even when they don't come off. 

I really hope that he can play his way through this and show once again why we were all so excited about him last season.
