Unfortunately he broke his wrist, 6 ribs, 2 vertebrae and a small vase typing that out.

Live, laugh, lacerate your Achilles tendon and be out of the rest of the season.

I think we'd all agree the most humame thing to do with him it take him for one last run around Leazes Park then shoot him in the back of the head. 

 

Feed him his favourite food, too. That new diet be damned.

How is it even possible to pick up an 8 week injury on a hamstring without actually using a hamstring....he's gone full Seim de Jong mode now

got to be more to it.

eddie said he felt it getting tight againts brentford. 

a hamstring strain nowadays shouldnt really put you out for even a whole month.

and there;s no way he could have torn it. would have been more obvious.

His only job in life is to look after himself and get fit to play football, he will have the best kit, equipment and medical staff money can buy, disgraceful really.

I really don’t understand people blaming Wilson for getting injured or assuming some lack of professionalism on his part. He’s spent most of his career crocked. His body is just obviously not up to playing regularly at the top level.  
 

Blame the club for keeping him around when he is past it and can’t be relied upon, sure. But I don’t know why Wilson gets so much flak. It’s not like he’s deliberately injuring himself.

It's a tedious given that as soon as a player isn't performing to the level we expect/know they can reach that their desire or character has to be brought in to question. As if the sporting world has never seen athletes made of glass before or something.
