What are you saying Sala would sit out half the season because he’s not up to speed on his tactics? If he went to Liverpool.

Well no, I never mentioned anything about Liverpool or Salah.

How many players though, have we bought that came in and went straight into the team? How many were successful? It’s going to vary depending on how experienced they are and how quickly they learn it but there has really not been many.

You also talk like that’s impossible but Man City do it a lot. They bring players in and you hardly see them play for a season I.e Grealish, Foden, Phillips, Stones when he came in. He works on them for a long time before they go into the team. It’s hardly unheard of.

Estupinan and Mitoma seemed to pick it up pretty quickly. Pedro didn't take long either.

Bloody hell, MORE injuries!

This season has been ridiculous. This many injuries in pretty much any other season in our history would have seen us relegated. It's unreal.
This is why we should of got a couple of players during the transfer window ,
they were so optimistic about all injured players returning in February
we were always going To pick up more injuries and the returning players were never going to come back and hit the ground running

Really should of got KDH over the line his manager and ours both talking like it was going to happen until Leicester actually wanted money and then it collapsed rather swiftly 🤣

Sigh.

I hope there’s a review into what’s gone on with our injuries this year. Probably an element of bad luck but worth looking into given how many appear to have happened in training.
The injuries conversation has been done to death on the Injuries thread, but it bears repeating that Premier League injuries collectively are at a record high.


As shown on the above link, Luton are currently on 13, Newcastle and Chelsea on 11, Sheffield United, Liverpool and Manchester United on 9.

And so on. We are currently on 7:

March, Mitoma, Hinshelwood, Pedro, Milner, Gilmour, Enciso.

The point I’m making is that injury frequency and recovery times are up across the board

I doubt other clubs have had as many pretty long term injuries to their best players as we have, shit happens I guess :down:

We don’t do short term injuries it seems
