I had semi pegged Gordon in that bracket. saka and Fernandes never seem to get tired or injured for example. Even Messi and Ronaldo never seemed to get injured as often as you might expect. Edit: Ronaldo has 16 seasons playing 40+ games a season. 15+ 30 league appearance seasons in Europe. A tactical master, budding physio and financial whizz. TCD talent pool knows no bounds.

You have to move the limb to ‘pain’ to assess where the pain is. Also, as mentioned it’s only a ROM test. Nothing in the clip shows an ACL test. Because its classic N-O to go and google something, pretend you have an informed and educated opinion, then post about it matter-of-factly for pages upon pages. Then, make sure you throw the knife in to trained pros who make these calls every day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack j Posted March 13, 2024 Share Posted March 13, 2024 (edited) Good news But he should be rested for the season now. Played far too many minutes already this season Edited March 13, 2024 by jack j Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted March 13, 2024 Share Posted March 13, 2024 Rubber band man this cunt (if true). I swear he has had 2-3 injuries with us where it looks like he’s totally crocked. Then he’s back playing the next game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted March 13, 2024 Share Posted March 13, 2024 I agree that he should be wrapped up to a degree from here, shouldn’t be playing more than 60 mins and would be good to get Anderson some more minutes before the summer so we can see whether he can make nail down a place in the squad longer term Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's no significant injury (crossing fingers like I'm in a royal photoshop), a couple of weeks off will be ideal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted March 13, 2024 Share Posted March 13, 2024 He wouldn’t even play if he went with the team. Would be great for him and his confidence but couldn’t be a worse time in terms of him needing a rest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s definitely genetic, some people just don’t get injured no matter how much load they put on their bodies. We are lucky that some of our most important players like Bruno, Gordon and Schär seem to be like that. I know Bruno had ankle problems but that was just bad luck.

He’s not going to play 2 full 90 minutes in any case and there wouldn’t really be that much more strain put on his body compared to if he stays with our group. Just the mental boost he would gain would IMO make it worth it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are lucky that some of our most important players like Bruno, Gordon and Schär seem to be like that. I know Bruno had ankle problems but that was just bad luck. I think a lot of it is down to mentality and professionalism. Wanting to be fit and wanting to play and train all the time makes a massive difference. Mentality and physiology are in the same box. Generally I think slender and less muscular physiques are also less prone to injury. I don’t think original Ronaldo had the best professionalism for example. But more than anything he had so much power and strength + agility something was likely to happen. But if he was as professional as Cristiano with that mindset he wouldn’t have had such bad injuries imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted March 13, 2024 Share Posted March 13, 2024 Disagree in general. There are obviously a lot of things you can do to look after yourself and it will catch up with you if you treat your body like shit for years. However, there’s enormous amount of luck related to injuries and some people are just way more susceptible to things than others. Ledley King, Callum Wilson to an extent, Michael Johnson was ruined by injuries at an early age. Not sure if that sent him into a bad place or whether he’d already been there. Whether you get a hamstring injury, muscle injury, ligament injury is largely out of your control for most footballers I’d say. The vast majority will be looking after their bodies as best they can Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
