Giovanni LEONI: 2025/26

it was 10 days since the post, you are late to the party, Viagra helps you respond quicker. I thought it was a funny joke, I laughed.

Man is he a unit!

Hoping for a full and quick recovery. Think he could be a massive part of our future.

Importantly that is an old pic from when he first signed

He’s at least 15 cm taller now!

He’d better slow down otherwise he’ll leave enough room for nippy forwards to just run between his,legs

Like the terminator he is coming back to murder everyone including Southampton.

Good to see this lad back at the training facility in training gear.

Is that a recent photo, by the way? It bodes well for his recovery if it is.

The seasons near done,

No need to rush the lad…

I can’t remember if it was in this thread or elsewhere, but someone knowledgeable was talking about the relationship between the length of recovery time and the chances of a reoccurring injury.

The conclusion was to let it take longer to heal, and it will be stronger in the long run.

Presumably the club knows all that, and then some, so good luck to Leoni whether we see him this season or next.

Presume his youth has helped with recovery. Wouldn’t be expecting him this season, bit of work over the summer rehabbing on the pitch running, before starting pre season would be ideal.

Like a new signing ? :wink:

Don’t play the lad. Let him recover. Next summer, give him a full pre-season under his belt, and then we’ll see how it goes next season. There’s absolutely no need to rush him back.

Yep - same applies to Isak too.

That said, if they are fit enough for a few mins here and there, I expect them to get on the pitch.

Isak will get minutes this season. I’m pretty sure about that.
