Per source: Amara Darboh is walking with a limp and wearing a boot. What the injury is and timeline for recovery unknown by source.

Someday, I hope people on this site will realize that the number of people making sarcastic comments about negative overreactions far outnumber those generating said negative overreactions.

This shtick is old.

It seems like he's had a great camp based on the coaches talking about him.  I hope he's allright.  On a side note can ever get through a camp without an injury to a projected starter???

Wow this could totally be nothing. These kind of tweets are incredibly stupid. Maybe he just rolled his ankle kinda bad? He might miss a couple days of practices, maybe less. How many times have we heard reports of a player wearing a boot during the week only to be 100% for the next game? Seriously people.

Well he was right that Green was hurt, and he was the one who broke that story. If he made a prognostication this time I might not believe it, but if he just says Darboh is in a boot I'm inclined to believe him, that's a tough report to mess up.

of the OP, but on the topic of your post. I agree tweets like this are ridiculous. No info on anything other than "he's in a boot and walking with a limp." I find these types of things slightly annoying but being an avid EPL fan who follows my team very closely I will say that tweets like this have nothing on the media that covers European soccer. 

Literally every 5 minutes another paper reports that ManU is in the mix for another top flight player and within minutes of that every major media outlet runs with that story, only to find out a few days later that it was total crap when the player (or team) reveals that there were no talks involving said player.

As I said, I dislike things like this tweet but given what I have become accustomed to in following European Soccer this isn't too egregious. You literllay can't even expect there to be a grain of truth in anything you read over there. At least what we find following college footbal is that there is some truth in what gets reported, even if the details are somewhat vague.
