If this has been bothering him for so long, I'm kinda annoying at him for battling through it. I know he is probably not one to complain or look weak, but he'd have been far better off admitting he had a problem 1-2 months ago and getting it sorted. That way he could have possibly got it sorted or let it heal, come back and resumed where he left off last season. But by not doing anything about it until now, he might have risked longer term damage and it could have ramifications for him when his deal runs out in the summer, regardless of which organisation he's with.
Be interesting to see if this is the case once we can an official word from him or the management.
