Achilles, apparently. Think that might be that for Rangel, sadly, at least with us. |  | |  |
| Angel Rangel on 23:16 - Jul 14 with 2994 views | EmpireStateRanger | Think it's over for him, too. I have a feeling he realized it immediately. The dejection on his face... seems like he knew it was a bad one. Would love to see him here next year in some fashion. Think our guys really love playing for him, and I'm sure they'd listen if he was on the sidelines. |  | |  |
| Angel Rangel on 23:46 - Jul 14 with 2907 views | daveB | really sad but enduring image of him for me was laying on the sideline in agony knowing he is in trouble whilst watching and cheering the team on. Even in that moment he was more about the team than himself. Really top man and been a great player over the years. i hope it's not as serious as it sounds. When you compare him agreeing to stay an extra month to Hall calling it a day he really doesn't deserve this |  | |  |

| Angel Rangel on 00:37 - Jul 15 with 2805 views | Jigsore | if it's as bad as people say then I think he may well retire at his age I hope the club gives him absolutely everything he needs and more regarding rehab and, if he wants it, a coaching role with a youth team |  | |  |

He'll retire anyway I reckon. That's why the club have now said anything about a contract. We could do with a defensive coach 😠Edit. Could be bad https://www.westlondonsport.co [Post edited 15 Jul 2020 7:13]

| Angel Rangel on 07:21 - Jul 15 with 2518 views | Northernr | We said Achilles straight away. When it goes it's like an elastic band snapping, people say you can actually hear it, and it's like being shot in the back of the foot. You can see it happen on the replay, he sort of jumps up in the air like 'the fck was that?'. That's terrible for him because that's his career done you would think. He's been a great signing for us, very valuable person to have around and help steer us through some difficult times. |  | |  |
| Angel Rangel on 09:30 - Jul 15 with 2254 views | francisbowles | Yes that's really sad if it ends that way. We will miss him. He has been 100% for us. |  | |  |

That's the measure of him. Great people make great players, they say. Hopefully this isn't the end of his playing days but if so I hope he gets a good coaching gig should he want it. I think his family still live in Swansea so he would have to balance that long-term as well. Wish him nothing but the best, but first a speedy and full recovery. |  |

| Angel Rangel on 10:08 - Jul 15 with 2127 views | daveB | He'll be a good manager one day imo, I'd look to get him on the coaching staff if he does call it a day |  | |  |

| Angel Rangel on 11:33 - Jul 15 with 1925 views | BklynRanger | I hadn't started to watch at that point but very sad to hear. Still showed great passion and intensity at this stage of his career (unlike a litany of others we've had) and did a lot to try to organise that back line when he played. That fit he had against the Swansea player last year was one of my highlights of the season. |  | |  |
| Angel Rangel on 11:36 - Jul 15 with 1919 views | bosh67 | If his career is cut short by this despite being part of a fairly poor defence he is an excellent defender and perhaps the kind of character that Warburton should be adding to the backroom staff as a specialised defensive coach? |  |

We don’t need a defensive coach do we? |  |

Bosh you keep harping on about this specialist defensive coach but no club has carved up the play like that since the offside rule was amended thirty years ago. Defence to attack back to defence is a single thing. Set piece coaching, different story. |  | |  |
| Angel Rangel on 12:01 - Jul 15 with 1866 views | DavieQPR | Yes he has been a model pro but why do people immediately want to sign ex players as coaches with little or no experience. |  | |  |

Gerry Francis is very good at coaching a defence and working on set pieces. At his age he could probably do the job part time |  | |  |

Really like the guy, but given he's never held a coaching role before seems a tad risky non? |  | |  |

Would tend to agree in general but in Rangel's particular case it was watching his interviews that made me immediately think this is someone players would play for. You'd have thought he already was the manager if you didn't know better in fact. Plus he's been part of good footballing sides for most of his career so that's a logical (tho not watertight) assumption. No one's suggesting he skip his badges though. |  | |  |
| Angel Rangel on 12:33 - Jul 15 with 1789 views | Wokingham_r | Reads like he sees himself going back to Swansea although he doesn't get on with some of the big players there. Still has a house (and family?) there. |  | |  |
