Kompany injured?

[jimharri]

Something's amiss with the medical care our players are getting. How the fuck are we picking up so many non-impact injuries this last 3 or so seasons? It's getting ridiculous now. We're winning titles and cups despite our medical staff, not because of them.

I know what you mean but the fact remains, it is the same players...Kompany, Silva, Jovetic and Aguero which suggests it is more player related than medical team issues?

Which (sort of!) drives home the point. Everrone knows at this stage that those players are "fragile"; surely we should be looking at having a specialist training/medical regime for those lads. The fact that they keep getting the same types of injuries again and again suggests that they aren't getting the specialist care they need. Otherwise, why do they keep getting injured? Very frustrating. Wasn't there some staggering stat doing the rounds at the end of last season that our main players had spent a (relatively) tiny amount of time together on the pitch?

What are Chelsea doing that we are not? Can't recall them having an injury crisis in recent years.

Better to have players injured now than in January / February .

Why are the games worth less points at the minute?

Remember that old Italian trainer that Mancini brought in? The one with the folk remedies? Ever since he left, we've been getting injured.

The way I remember it it was after Mancini sacked our Doctor that we started getting injuries we had virtually none the season we first won the title and Mancini kicked him out, brought in his own man and we started picking up injuries.
It may be conincidence though.

Very true. Easy stretch lf the schedule in the league and CL wont start back up for a while. Even with Pozo and Lampard (who would have thought 12 months ago id be saying that) as our 2 most forward players we still won comfortably. Think we need a striker in Jan tho.

Seems odd that he wasn't fit enough to play on Wednesday, but having been to Rome and back on a plane he was suddenly ready to start. Wonder how much of it was the player just being desperate to get back into the team?

He was sacked for giving Kolo the go ahead to take something that was on the banned list.

In which case we lied and Kolo lied in his hearing, he said that he took his wifes water tablets on his wifes advice the idea that a team doctor would acquiesse to that is absurd.

No way Kompany should have started today now he's pulled a hamstring and that could mean 6 weeks out if its a bad un!!

Exactly my point, Pellegrini as just admitted as much. Fucking ridiculous. He's also just said that maybe without all 3 strikers until the new year.
