Fabio out for the rest of the season

From UEFA

Liverpool FC defender Fabio Aurelio is likely to miss the rest of the season after being stretchered off towards the end of the UEFA Champions League victory at PSV Eindhoven with a suspected rupture of his achilles tendon.

'Terrible injury'

The 27-year-old Brazilian left-back was taken off with 15 minutes left of Liverpool's 3-0 quarter-final first-leg win at the PSV Stadium, and Rafael Benítez believes the injury is a serious one. "We played well, it was an organised and effective performance, but we are all more concerned about Fabio," said the Reds manager. "It was a terrible injury. We believe it is very serious although we will not be sure until after a scan when we get back to Liverpool."


Hope the injury isn't too serious.  Really been playing well recently....was going to say just starting to find your feet...  :

Hang in there Fab

good luck fabio. quick recovery is what u need mate.

Sorry to hear this get well soon Fabio, you were playing so well .....just to add to that, this probably means that Riise will go back to Left Back and Harry might be able to regain his LM spot...here's your chance Harry . let's hope u make the most of it bud and prove that you still belong at this wonderful club...couldn't bear the thought of you wearing a Bolton or Man City top...what will I do with my autographed framed photo of you, in my LFC dedicated room

All the best to you Fabio, the injury jinx strikes again.
Hopefully you'll be fully fit for the start of next season and regain your place.

All the best Fabio, Just when you started to show us how good you were you get badly injured

Agree with AussieRed, Come on Harry we know you can get back to how you were playing towards the end of last season!! Lets prove all your doubters wrong!

Good luck Fabio !!

It seemed that it's an achille rupture, a very bad and career risk injury. Good luck Fabio, all the best.

Poor guy!! I saw him go, and I thought he'd done his ankle by the way he grabbed it and fell to the floor

Get well soon Fabio hope he makes a full recovery

Good luck on a speedy recovery Fabio! Hope you'll be back fighting fit next season! Gonna miss some of those quality, pacey, crosses into the box!

Liverpool have confirmed that Brazilian left back Fabio Aurelio will miss the rest of the season after rupturing his achilles tendon in Eindhoven on Tuesday evening. 
Aurelio fell to the ground in agony during the second half of the Reds' emphatic 3-0 victory and left the stadium on crutches after the game.
 
He underwent a scan on Merseyside where it was revealed he faces up to four months on the sidelines.
 
Club spokesman Ian Cotton said: "A scan has confirmed a complete rupture of the achilles tendon in Fabio's right leg.
 
"The player will undergo surgery and is expected to be out for approximately three to four months." 

I can't believe it.  He's been doing well onthe left for us, with some superb crosses.  He'll be missed in the run in to close of season.

Get well SOON Fab

Are all our players on the left cursed?

Kewell's been out for the whole season, then Garcia, now this.

If anything happens to Riise now it's gonna look like a very silly move selling Warnock. In the meantime we're gonna be stuck with Zenden & Gonzales fighting it out for left wing. Joy.

Zenden??? Plllllllllllease, he must p*ss off in the summer!!

 Rafa Benitez expects Fabio Aurelio to return for pre-season following a successful operation on his Achilles tendon. 
The full-back was stretchered off against PSV on Tuesday night, with initial fears he could miss the start of next season.
 
But Benitez today confirmed: "He will be fit for the pre-season. Yesterday he had an operation and it was really good. It was over quickly – the doctor carried out a new kind of operation."
 
The injury came hot on the heels of some of Aurelio's finest moments in a Liverpool shirt, most notably two assists against Arsenal last weekend.
 
Benitez added: "He was playing really well, so it was a pity to see him get injured again."
