Evidently in training on Monday he tore something and he's gone for the year!

This sucks. Bad injury. Unfortunately our baby (Halfar) suffered the same fate yesterday.
Still, I have never ever heard of a team suffering four torn ACLs in such a short time. Mindblowing!

In 94/95 we had at least three torn ACL's (Povlsen, Riedle, Chapuisat). That was when our "Babysturm" emerged - Ricken and Tanko!

Well... can the same thing happen again? Of course I mean the emergence of young talent.

We have a young talented striker (that some even see as skilled as Sahin) called Sebastian Tyrala (17). Unfortunately...he has a torn ACL. :-(
He will be back after winter hopefully. Else we have some youth players like Amachaibou.

Get Buckley back and then Ricken goes out. We just can't get a break. Unless it's an ACL.

we now really need a new striker
BEFORE the winterbreak
Imho
GAMBINO , BUCKLEY, ODONKOR and EBI aint enough
and BvM meant we had too much strikers

Feel bad for Lars....he's got real bad luck when it comes to things like this...he's gonna have to go under the knife for this.
Dortmund are looking at Frei, arent they? I doubt they'll get him though, he is one of France's hottest property and no offense to BVB, but why would he come to play in Dortmund?

I agree but Frei was the top scorer last season, that in a league that is improving and many people recognize to be better than the Bundesliga. If it was Bayern or Werder then yes, but BVB have been struggling and don't show much promise despite what I think is one of the better squads in the league.
