Injuries

SteveAWOL said:
I shan’t be counting my chickens (pigeons) with Richarlsion tbh, what with his return from injury in October only last a couple of weeks before his hamstring gave way yet again. Sadly those type of injuries tend to accumulate and with his history there’s every risk he’s another Sessegnon.

Hopefully Moore’s immune system has fully recovered from whatever he contracted in the autumn and he doesn’t succumb to that sickness bug which ravaged our squad last week.

Ange said Richarlison would need another week of training, wanting to be careful with him. Moore could be on the bench.
 
I would not bet against that the boots they wear now are contributing to injuries. Bought a pair last year, but cramped up in my calf after only about 15 minutes. They're so rigid. Almost no flex at all. Like a fudging wooden plank with studs. As soon as I switched back to my old Copa Mundial or Predator from 25 years back, I was OK.

Have to say I think this is a great shout. Between modern surfaces and the incessant 'need' for new 'technology' in boots, I think you're onto something.

Blades instead of studs definitely increases injuries. You don't actually want too much grip, sometimes its better to go into a slide rather than have resistance against it. But that causes knee injuries. We're getting hamstring injuries.

Hamstring injuries is most often because of physical conditioning or overuse.
In Angeball overuse - sudden sprints when muscles are spent - is the main culprit.

Two games a week (Europe, cups etc.) requires active and moderate rotation which Ange is still learning about. We're not going to win anything until he does.
