I think you have to speak with the medical team before you think about what you're going to do. His injury this year wasn't the usual niggles and missing 3 or 4 games here and there. Prior to that TM seemed able to manage him quite well and get the most out of him.
If the medical team are confident I'd be tempted to offer him a pay as you play deal.
The problem is you would want decent cover, would that be affordable? If we have someone who is good enough to play in his place would there be any value in having him here as well.
Reda will come good, 1 year deal, dont forget he's player of the year!
Reda has managed 140 league games in an 7 year professional career in England, that is an average of 20 games per season.
You don't need a Doctor to tell you he is a crock, you need a statistician. Cue Mr Anderson....

if hed stayed fit i think we would have made playoffs
shame,but least TM knows to look for physical defenders next season
Think that's a bit unfair, there's no doubt when fit he brings an awful lot to the team.Ben Turner was 100 times the player Johnson is/was.
He's not going to sign a pay as you play deal. If he did he would be playing with the fear of getting injured. If he's a crock like everyone's saying then he's hardly likely to take that risk of not getting paid whilst injured. I'm sure someone will offer him a 1 year deal

martin improved still isnt at redas level though,so if we are ruthless we have to get rid of both
Where on earth would you find an easy replacement for Martin? He's definitely at johnsons level as well by the way. Fat better than Johnson this season.
i was going by his ruthless logic, i am not saying get rid of martin
and martin has improved alot but nowhere near reda level imo
In my opinion he is a far more consistent and reliable defender. I would pick him over the erratic Johnson every time. Even when he was fit he was often bailed out by Martin whose far better at holding his defensive line. Johnsons main strength is arial power - positionally he is all over the place.
gonna have to agree to disagree on this one. i like it when cbs come out and power headers away just outside centre circle and stop moves even beginning, i think reda is very good at that. martin had to be told to be braver, thats not good for a cb, but fairplay he took it and has managed to implement it somewhat.
i personally like 1 marauding cb and 1 that holds line. i remember inter milan used it under jose to win treble with lucio and walter samuel, i dont think it made lucio a shit defender because he was more irratic, it really helps the team.
harries will probably be 1 of the 4cbs next year, martin too. leaves 2 or 3 spots open. i doubt reda will be back
You're obviously not very good at football, centre backs do not maraud.

Why didn't he the last two?1 year deal and he'll get us top 6
