Play him as soon as we can, and if he breaks down again, just give him the full off season to mend properly. He is a strike weapon and we need him asap ! Even at 75% fitness, he is still more of an x factor than anyone we currently have.

If he's genuinely fit then play him, if he's bulldog fit then don't.

He'll have the off season to recover, and be ready to be injured again in training early 2024.
Brought both King @ Kiraz back too early out of desperation, and both haven't been the same since their injuries.

What are you, the doctor that told him not to bring him back early? If it was too early, they would have broken down and re aggravated the same injury and more then likely made it worse. That didn't happen.

But it did make the recovery process longer, and the risk of reinjury is still there.

You don't know that. It's up to the medical and physio team to declare them fit or not. No professional coach of any sport would go against that advice.

If he’s cleared to play then he should play, for a number of very good reasons. It’ll give his teammates a moral boost, they can do with every lift up possible. It’ll give him game time with a lot of players that he is going to play alongside next season. It’ll give him more in game opportunities to understand how Ciraldo is coaching the team, from game to game. Training is all very well but it’s no substitute for game time, it’ll give him confidence that he’s good to go. The bonus is it will give us fans a lift, we too could do with it, to see him back on the field.

What if it’s not “rushing” what if he’s actually 100% good to go? Stopping him from playing when he is fit to play, and most all wants to play, it’s not good for him or for the team.
