Could be mistaken

Coutts has metal in his leg and Lavery has metal in his face.

Forged in Steel indeed!

Should get together and form a band.

There's a lot more to coming back to be the player you were than just going through the .6,8, 10 week or whatever period lay off, to being able to play properly and get back to doing what you did can take months on top of that, some players never attain that level of excellence.
I remember when Gill Reece broke his leg, when he came back he was never the same player, - just saying.
I honestly and deeply hope Coutts is back doing what he, and only he, does for our team, a.s.a.p.

Gil Reece broke his leg about 1966. I would say he was a better player by the time we'd reached the promotion season of 1970/71.
