It wasn’t the first half season and then it went from disaster to disaster. The fitness coach died and the whole squad was either knackered or injured.
seemed normal under poch and previous. We'd have injuries like any club but never massive amounts i don't seem to recall. seemed to ramp up under Jose and just continue from there
Yeah we’ve been on a roll for sure.
Imagine Lamela under Ange. Guy would probably be legless by now.
Which coach are we blaming for Lamela then?
Romero wants out, he will be gone soon, Richy will go probably in the summer, leaves VDV.
We have several players that are fragile. Some of them we can sell, with Micky the club really need to get specialists to look at his biomechanics and come up with a fitness plan to build his muscles in a way that will limit this problem. He had a bad hammy injury before he came to us, he is always going to be prone to it even if more prone playing a high line.
Kane used to get ankle injuries all the time but apparently made changes which stopped them. VDV and the club will need to look at him and change his development.

Where would Richarlison feasibly go?.....
He refuses the Saudi league and no serious football team is going to sign him with his injury record
Probably a cut price to Brazil is the only option. Club will have to take a hit.
he only has 2 years left on his contract in the summer so we may try shifting him more forcibly
I don’t think any coach was to blame, he was just an injury prone player. I’d wager VDV is the same, but that this system were playing is amplifying it, just look at the rest of the injury bench, it was never this bad under Poch
Some players just have horror runs with injury, and a season or two later they seem to overcome them. Often for no apparent reason or rhyme. Let's just hope that when we see VDV back again it's for an extended period. It seems the medical team are taking all precautions now.
How long is this shit house out for I'm sick of all the excuses now. If I broke my leg I'd be back quicker. Ridiculous all this and Romero stuff
It's the very nature of this club - "bad luck", excuses, countless 'reasons' why things don't go our way. Basically rotten from top to bottom.
Why would anyone buy a player who's constantly injured?
They won’t for good money unless his injury record improves.
It will end up being something like a loan with option if we’re desperate to shift him.
Shithouse? Not really culpable if his hamstring is snapping. That’s not his fault.
He’s not a doctor either, he can’t fix it himself. If he’s following the rehab the club lay down for him, the onus is on them to get him right.
Theres rumors hell go to saudi now for the pay day as he realises his career is falling apart due to his injury issues
Think players also need to own their habits.
Not saying VDV doesn’t have elite habits but the elite players just don’t get hurt,
They know their body, the sleep like a machine, eat meticulously and spend huge money on their own recovery protocols on top of what the club prescribes.
It IS a matter of how bad the player wants it too.
