I've just heard some tremendous news on Faurlin regarding his recovery.

The person has asked to remain anonymous, but he has a very close tie with Faurlin. The fitness/recovery work is going much better than anticipated. Ali is already putting in some very heavy work on the running side by the sounds of it.

He will be joining in pre-season training with everyone else and will be fit for the opening game against Swansea. Personally, my gut feeling was that he wouldn't be fit enough to start the season... But it looks like he will.

Obviously the club haven't officially put anything out there regarding his fitness as yet, but it's looking extremely promising for him.

If true, marvellous news. Like a new signing almost. Just hope he can recreate his form from before, will take him time to get match-sharp of course.

Agreed, tremendous if it is true. Not least of all for Ale himself, who comes across as a terrific fella.

We so missed his passing, strength, determination and agression in midfield for so long last season.

Thanks SM for this post, I know you wouldn't have put that up unless it is true. Great news, I totally agree as good as a new signing!

Tremendous news. Maybe he'll be joining in with everyone as soon as they're back from the Asia tour.

Great news.

They leave for Thailand today with the first match on Saturday. I can't see any reason to leave Ale out of the the trip. Even if he doesn't feature heavily in the matches he can still train.

That's not quite true ...

I actually spoke to him on Sunday and he told me, yes he was beginning running but wasnt sure about pre season ... thinks that may be a bit early .. Admittedly his English was not great...

He was generally optimistic though and his rehab was going well.

Genuinely nice guy ,,,

Faurlin's performance against Man City at LR last season was one of the best things I have ever seen.

Just a fraction of what he did on that day would be very, very welcome.

My fingers are crossed that the combination of Samba & Ale works like a dream.

With the nature of his injury he may have been using a Zero G running machine just to relearn the muscle movements and not put too much strain on the recovering tissues. I have no inside knowledge of his rehab but this is becoming a standard, albeit expensive, bit of kit in cases like this. I wonder if we still have Ray Wilkins' oxygen chamber still Very Happy
