At least according to 3cbperformance, the problem is mostly mental statistically, which is at least something. Definitely on the eye test it feels the other way though. I miss pre-ACL Holding and Bellerin...

@Astrealix @ThePowerOfGeek having had a recent knee injury (not torn acl but close) i think a lot of it is mental and also biomechanics; you lose so much muscle and strength in the leg with surgery and it is easy to see mechanics get thrown off as a result.
