De Bruyne injury - Back in Training (p89)

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Nothing has changed,the MEN are talking nonsense,as usual.

Yep, as per usual, re the MEN trying to over egg stuff

The weekend reports were just that Kev had visited Barca last week and the doc had given him permission to increase his rehab.

Big stretch to state being back sooner.

It is similar to Nasri in 2014, injured for 8 week 12 Jan, scored against Chelsea on return 15th Feb. He was the best player in the run in too.

Er; no. Dzeko and Toure were far more influential in that run in.

Toure was on a par, but not the other guy by any means, he was in the top 11 though. Unless the number of goals is the only barometer...

Not just the goals. He stepped up to the mark and led the line brilliantly in Sergio's absence in that run in. And you class Toure as only being on a par with Nasri? Hmm.

Pretty similar Everton and United away where Nasri was on fire setting up the goals - but who cares now?

Fair enough. We could debate until midnight and not see things the same. We'll have to agree to disagree.

Dunno if it's common knowledge or not.
Kev was in the gym on Friday doing squats with the weights etc.
No strapping,no supports,nothing....seemed in good spirits too,apparently.
Hopefully ahead of schedule.

I wonder what Kev even squats normally....he's not big but footballers do have disproportionately strong legs and core.

Well, if he's anything like Aleks....

No idea mate.

I look at Aguero and Shaquiri and similar players with incredible leg development and i think they must squat humongous amounts but I only ever see training vids with very modest weight....I don't get it?

A couple of pissheads putting the world to rights.

I think a lot of their work is single leg squats, balanced based stuff, plyometrics etc. and the occasional picture we see of them doing a standard squat is accessory, rehab or warm up work.

Also they would probably only train for mass or strength in the preseason. Once they're playing every 3 days it's surely just about conditioning and recovery.

I suspect our world class medical department will have a handle on that.
