In such a high level sometimes the precautions are huge, I remember back then Schweini had a plaster from the knee to the ankle and yet he was ready in two weeks as the official announcement said, I don't say that this photo of Neuer looks promising but it's not like us "normal people" we get a minor-operation and we go to work after 3-4 days with a bandage. Neuer probably is told to completely relax and laid down plus all the precaution measures for the asap rehabilitation.

The surgery he had recently is fresh, very fresh but in 10 days it might be like a scratch. Even a bruise hurts like hell in the first 2-3 days imagine an operation in your toe...

Yeah, you're right. This probably looks way worse than it actually is. Crutches are no surprise, of course he'd be using them after a foot surgery. It could be that the problem with his toe is not with the digit itself but with the muscles that move the toe. If he had an operation on his muscle, it'd be only natural to have the whole instep and ankle bandaged.

That calf is worrisome but let's hope it's something precautionary because he returned to full training on Monday and I'd hate to think that our medical department would be so careless than to let an injured player back to the pitch.

And besides, he was seen on Säbener Strasse on Friday (apparently Uli´s personal chauffeur picked him up from his house) so it's likely that he has started a reha already. Bild is of course trying to create extra drama around this match... I probably should stop reading them because they always manage to freak me out.

Bayern Munich manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed Manuel Neuer will be fit in time to face Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals later this month.

Neuer, 31, suffered a foot injury in training that forced him to miss the international break and underwent minor surgery on Wednesday, ruling him out for upcoming matches against Augsburg and Hoffenheim.

Bayern have huge matches against Borussia Dortmund and the first leg of their Champions League quarter finals later this month, but Ancelotti has confirmed their star goalkeeper will be back in time for those matches.

“Neuer is ready to play against Dortmund and Real Madrid,” Marca quote Ancelotti as saying. “He has a small problem with a toe but there is no danger to his participation in the first leg of the quarter-final.”

My brother broke his little toe once(on the edge of a furniture, that's what they say the little toe serves for: detecting furniture) and they plastered all his foot and ankle too... I left him for 1 minute alone as I went upstairs then I heard him cry for help... it seemed to him that I didn't drive him fast enough to the hospital and still holds a grudge for it. Wtf a little toe can't be that urgent.

No problem as long as he's ok for Real

If Real Madrid is the first game he plays after a 4 weeks break it's a problem imo.

I'm not worried at all as long as he's ready for the first game against Real Madrid. No need to be pessimistic, after all, we're talking about the best goalkeeper in the world.

I'd suggest you not to think about his Kikser mode turning on for that match.

Nahh... Neuer plays all the time. It won't affect him that much. And match fitness is less important for a world class GK than any other player, I think.

Btw I still think they're playing with dates as a mind game.

Of course it'd be nice if he could play against BVB to get into rhythm but only if it's risk-free.

Earlier today media wrote that he has a some sort of fracture in his foot and in the worst case it could lead to a 2-3 months' pause. But in today's presser Carletto said that he has no problem, he starts individual training today and with 100% certainty will play against Real.
