Injuries

But it shows the numbers factually for once
Much more telling stats than I've seen before, which really shows the impact injuries has had on us the past few months. We've had almost three times as many abscentees as Chelski, who are 7th in that dreaded table.

The underlying issue here, of course, is why these injuries keep accumulating. It's not all bad luck.

But in that context I also find this part of the article very interesting:

But sessions are understood to have been extremely light over the last few months due to the relentless schedule.
The ex-Celtic boss said last week: “I know people look at our training, but I guarantee you we’ve hardly trained for the past four months.
“We’re looking at our processes but the wiser thing to do is stay calm, investigate it properly and make sure we make the right decisions.”

Yep
We know nothing in reality and it could be blind luck but that’s an extreme and so unusual it doesn’t make sense
 
I’m sure there will be a reason for this and I hope the club is looking at this closely. I’ve got a slight theory which is probably rubbish but I often see the players in pics and videos doing Pilates style workouts. I do Pilates myself and it has lots of benefits but since starting I’ve had so many niggly little bits of pain (shoulder, hip) which occasionally develop into something I need to get looked at. My theory is that it promotes a strong core and even posture but perhaps works against my natural posture slightly. An elite athlete vs a 43 year old real ale enthusiast might be very different beasts but we are all human of course..!

My other theory involves some sort of curse or similar. That’s been quite a long standing theory when it comes to this club so probably the most likely reason for all the injuries!
