Injuries

Even Pep won't be able to do anything with us with injuries like this,nobody could, there is something seriously wrong in training or preparation. Am I right in thinking this started when we moved from Carrington ?

Is this anything to do with the nylon weave in our pitches? The turf simply doesn't give like it used to...

Something is seriously wrong
 
This is really depressing.... now we're just talking about survival. They should sack the most of the medical staff for this fiasco.
 
It's almost like fucking witchcraft. This is what we've lost so far:

Nasri - 7 months (including current injury)
Delph - 6 months (including current injury)
Kompany - 5 months
Zabaleta - 4 months
Clichy - 4 months
Bony - 4 months (3 seperate injuries)
Mangala - 4 months (3 seperate injuries including current one)
Aguero - 3 months
De Bruyne - 2 1/2 months (including current injury)
Silva - 2 months

That's 10 players, including 7 first choice starters, out for a total of 41 months....or 3 1/2 years. Genuinely incredible and completely unprecedented

This can't be down to just bad luck.

Surely our fitness and medical team need looking at?
 
I wonder why no one has discovered why football players and especially the ones playing in the PL, have so many injuries. Too many games, the physical high standard, and the weather (rain and cold weather certainly won't help) are the main reasons that are also so obvious l really don't understand why we need to compete in 4 competitions. When we play Kiev we have played about 20 games since they starts the winter break. Crazy.
 
I read somewhere that we have had something like 52 separate injuries so far this season whereas Leicester have had about half a dozen
Something's not right
 
What a complete fiasco, people! Surely the club is looking into this, ffs.
 
Delph injured now.



However, David Silva has been passed fit following treatment in Spain for an ongoing ankle problems and Vincent Kompany, the captain, returns to the squad for the first time since a recurrence of a calf injury on Boxing Day.

“It’s difficult when you have so many players injured in the same position. We must try to manage with the players we have,” Pellegrini added.

“David has been playing with a problem with his ankle for the past four or five games but I hope now he will be better.

“Vincent is coming back from a long injury and is another important player for our team so hopefully we can have a good performance.

What the hell have they injected him with to magically fix his problem?
 
I genuinely believe that due to the spot light constantly being on our club from UEFA and the media coupled with our desire to do everything in a transparent way, we are probably one of the only Premier League teams who aren't doping.

Doctors who have led doping operations in cycling and other sports say it's impossible to detect doping if done professionally.

Just look at our injuries compared to Liverpool in 13/14, Chelsea last season and Leicester this season. It is absurd.

Leicester, a team rock bottom of the League this time last year. All of the sudden they can miraculously sprint through brick walls for 90 minutes week in week out, without sustaining any injuries, without showing any signs of fatigue in game. No fitness regime can make a 29 year old Vardy sprint at 20mph for 90 minutes.

This post is hilarious lol
 
leicester are cool- they were in a false position really this time last year- a good side that had played well but suffered poor fortune early/mid season (results wise)- their talent and high quality prevailed in the run in.
 
Don't worry about it -- Craig Burley of ESPNFC says we should still start Delph in place of Yaya anyway . . . or maybe -- just maybe -- this "professional football pundit" didn't know Delph was injured. He gets PAID for this! PAID!

Ridiculous from you. This was recorded almost at the same time that Pellegrini had his presser and by that time no one knew Delph was injured.
 
This quote sums up the season, Pellegrini: "We started the season with Vincent, Silva, Toure and Aguero all of them playing in the first four games. After that, for different reasons, this is the first time they will play again together."

Just waiting for the next injury to be announced now.

Sergio will be the next victim, I can sense it.
 
Absolute farce.

Still a long way to go in the season, yet, too.

Why we didn't go for reinforcements in January is baffling!
Equally strange, still letting Roberts go out on loan, after we lost KDB long term?
Perhaps a lack of flexibility to reassess and allow for injury cover, will cost us this season?
 
Do it the Leicester way...2days off and plenty of light training for us is the answer seeing that we are playing so many games.
