windermereROYALSutekh Quick update in addition to Edwards, Obita and Richards being injured
No idea how long Eza will be out
Bodvarsson now has a back injury
Yiadom is rated as doubt for Bristol City
But Clement (see, I said he had been injured) and Popa will back in training soon.
It`s seriously hard to suggest any team in the history of the game have injuty issues has severe as ours, every little knock and it seems they are out for months and in some cases years.
I was watching the youtube video of our 106 season the other day, Glen little went off with a horrendous gash to his leg, he was fcuking back playing within 3 weeks. imagine that now???
yeah, and they all walked to training in their bare feet, lugging sacks of coal, blah blah
A cut, even a deep cut, is not going to stop you playing as long as a muscle or ligament injury. Have any of our players taken months out for a cut? If not, it's not a fair comparison.
Possibly some players are reluctant to play in front of a hostile crowd in a losing team and therefore might exaggerate how injured they are. But it's very unlikely that all of the injury issues are down to that. when you look at the goalkeepers for instance - massive opportunity for Walker or for Jaakkola when Mannone was out, they're not going to throw that away willingly for an insignificant niggle
Training methods? the Physio department? a curse?
