Mathieu Debuchy

You do have to start asking questions, the amount of injuries we get.  Thing is they are always out forever, not just one match.  Hatem, seemingly keeps getting near then has yet another set back, again a massive set back after being allowed to start a game.  Cabaye, been out a lot this season, Tiote suffered lots of niggly injuries keep putting him out for a while.  Now Debuchy, will be interesting to see how quickly he comes back, and whether he comes back too early.

 

Last season we were lucky with injuries by our standards, but apart from that the last 10-15 years we've been fucking awful for our injury list. Under souness we looked in to the pitches, spent a lot of money changing them round so I'd imaging we've got that sorted. You then got to look at club doctors, physio, fitness coaches, dieticians and if all them are top notch, then it really is down to luck and there's nowt you can do about that apart from having a bigger squad so when you lose key players you have ones to step in, but squad depth is only something we've had in the last few weeks, so maybe the answer lies there.

Man Utd last? :neutral:

Who did they lose for injury for so long?

The two joke billionaire clubs at the top of the list - money can obviously buy the best medical staff and facilities too.

Don't question Pardew's medical qualifications! You'll make Cajun cry  :(

 

I'm just looking forward to you quoting it 3-4 times a day if he doesn't make it :)

I wonder if Man City only having 7 injuries and significantly less "days lost" is to do with their fitness staff and facilities? I'm guessing it plays a part, just wondering if we would be anywhere near the top of the table with the same set-up.

 

They  have a lot more rotation of players.
