So instead of 3 months it might just be 12 weeks.
Do you think what Lampard has said in the article just released is a 'spoof'

feel for him but at least it wont stop him doing fashion shoots
I can't guarantee the validity of it, however from what I've heard they were doing a scan and decided to amputate both legs.

"Pretty sure" would indicate a high level of certainty around it.
Everton manager Frank Lampard has confirmed striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin will miss Saturday’s Premier League opener against Chelsea after sustaining a knee injury in training.
The England international is currently being assessed by the Club’s medical team and will continue treatment at Finch Farm.
Lampard said: “We are assessing Dom’s injury. No timeframe has been confirmed and we are pretty sure what level it is so we are hopeful it is not long-term.
“We’ll miss him for Chelsea. He was looking in great physical condition and was training really well. It was a freak injury in training, which does happen. It’s a shame but we have to find the solutions to keep ourselves strong without Dominic before he returns.”
"Hopeful" would indicate they have no idea.
That hasn't really told us anything other than he is definitely out for Chelsea.

"It's not long term"...which means what - months rather than the season out?

That doesn't clarify anything. Reading between the lines that's looking like at least 4-6 weeks at best.
Hopefully the club are downplaying any serious injury in order to stop clubs holding Everton over a barrell concerning the sale of any striker we make an offer for.

I think the club are covering their own backs.
If they knew DCL was out for months rather than weeks and they confirmed that news to the fans, the pressure on them from fans would rightly intensify.
They will now know internally, if they didn't already, that a new striker is essential and it will be risky to rely on DCL only for the full season.
Fans knew this already but maybe now clubs will know we are desperate as we do not have a leading striker going into the season. Prices will inflate 5-10% at least.

Even if he misses “only” a month, he’ll then spend another month being very average (and missing a penalty) regaining match fitness. Then get another niggle elsewhere due to forcing himself back too soon. Then…… etc etc.
Gutted for him. Gutted for us.
Empty the P&S wallet now and pay decent money for a proper 1st team striker. Try and recover this years P&S deficit by selling anyone with any value very early next summer (so same accounting period). Really against a crap stop-gap striker on £80k who we will either be stuck with for years OR have to play every week if DCL goes full Andy Carroll.
