I dont think he'll play til after Xmas he's missed the entire pre-season, broken collar bone will mean he's done very little fitness work, he'll be starting from scratch and I strongly suspect that will mean he's way off the pace for the best part of the season. dont get your hopes up.
It won't take him long to get to match fitness seeing as though he doesn't run about that much anyway!

He told me before Cardiff he'd be back in full training in 3 weeks, so that's a week on Saturday. He's been able to run and keep himself relatively fit, but obviously match fitness would take a while...
I'd say he won't be ready for the 1st team till late September, once he's played a few reserve games to get up to speed.
Saw him yesterday at metrodome playing badminton. didnt hold back either, looks like the rehab has stepped up a gear.
