Coco eager to return
Coco was relieved to find out he would not need surgery on the damaged joint, but still faces six or seven weeks recuperation.
"I am a lot better, "Coco told Inter's television station. "The therapy is hard work because it has been a major injury.
"I have a big will to start again, but I don't want to make the same mistake as last time and exacerbate things by rushing back."
Coco found himself under-fire last season, with injuries limiting his impact.
"Critics will always be around - you can't do anything about that," said Coco.
"If you are playing badly you just have to knuckle down and play through it, and hope your performances on the pitch begin to answer the questions."
