Midfielder Teemu Tainio said: "I've started doing exercises, and it's felt alright."
"I had a similar operation five years ago on both sides, but this time it was only the left side."
"I knew I wasn't playing my best, but it was a bit of a shock to find out I needed an operation. Hopefully my bad games will be behind me."
Steed Malbranque, signed from Fulham in August, said: "I kicked the ball for the first time since my surgery on Tuesday morning and I felt no pain. I have just been running with the ball and getting my touch back."
"It has been very frustrating for me. I joined a new club carrying an injury and it has been difficult because I so much wanted to be involved."
Club captain Ledley King endorsed the signing: "Whenever we played Fulham we always recognised him as a big danger. We were all glad he decided to join us," he said.
