Do you want to point us towards the definition that shows to be "injury prone" it has to be an occurrence of the same injury?

Bullshit. How can you be injury prone if you don't suffer a recurrence of the same injury? David Silva is injury prone, Vincent Kompany is injury prone. Ilkay Gundogan had one major injury, with his back, and has had nothing to write home about outside of that. For example, last season he was sidelined for a few weeks with a bruised foot as a precaution. Outside of the back, he's missed only 36 games through injury or sickness and played in 347.
You have a poor understanding of injury prone

There's a difference between being injury prone and having bad luck.
Fortunately, I'm not the only one who can actually decipher this.

Ah, ok, so instead of answering the question, you reference a Goal journo.There's a difference between being injury prone and having bad luck.

Awesome.
edit.....and the hilarious part is that you've just shown that rather than you posting your own thoughts, you've pretty much copied what a journo has written about. Truly fucking pmsl.

And instead of making any actual point, you spew this bullshit.
I can reference you plenty of other sources that show there is a difference between being injury prone and picking up injuries due to bad luck. What have you got to show? Fuck all.
Having bad luck is picking up a one-off freak injury (Canizares dropping a bottle of aftershave on his foot that meant he missed the Euros or World Cup, for instance)There's a difference between being injury prone and having bad luck.

Suffering the same injury over and over again means you have a chronic injury.
Suffering various different injuries to different parts of your body in different circumstances, means you're injury prone.
Gundogan is clearly the latter, at least so far in his career.

Surely the definition of injury prone is missing a lot of games through injury.

And, as I pointed out, this actually hasn't happened to Ilkay Gundogan at all. He had one big injury and hasn't really missed much through injury outside of that.
Outside the back injury he has missed only 38 games since 2008 through injury.

Bingo.
hahaha
Great post.
I read a study on baseball players and the predictability of them being injured. It found that the players most likely to suffer injuries in the future were those that had suffered injuries in the past. Aka the Rodwell effect.
