Barcelona's medical staff has announced after a series of tests that Barcelona left back defender and French international Eric Abidal (29) has a meniscal cyst on his right knee.
The French defender had to leave the training session this morning with pain in his right knee and a series of tests by the medical staff determined the extent of the problem.
Abidal will certainly not be available for the next two games and will follow a recovery program in the coming days. If the injury doesn't get better after one week, the Frenchman could undergo an arthroscopy, a minimally invasive surgical procedure to examine the damage.

As long as this doesn't turn into anything chronic, I don't mind a week or two off for Abidal. I think it's time to look for a young LB this January that can backup the position and also take over the job in the future. What would be even better is a ambidextrous young fullback that can backup both flanks. Unlikely, but that would be magnificent.
Hmmm.....lets hope this isnt too bad. I never thought I would be saying this but I think we would actually miss Abidal a lot if he was out for an extended period of time. I have never really been a big fan of his, but recently he seems like a completely new player. He is solid at the back, rarely makes mistakes, constantly has pace to burn and is even showing a lot more promise going forward.
My respects for HIM!! theirs also puyol caceres and sylvihno but hope he gets better!
put cáceres in the LB position he can play alaso full back.
Let's see...
now it's time to let caceres play LB!
recently he played very well, just as I expected. Player like him at least need 1 session to adapt with la liga environment. Hopefully similar situation happen to henry
