Sounds eerily similar to the Botman case. Let’s get the medical department improved ffs. 

It's not the medical department.

 

In Botman's case, he has been backwards and forwards to the Netherlands for specialist treatment / assessment, and the concensus from the specialists was to just continue to build his fitness back up and physio work. There is the potential he would need an operation IF the physio work isn't successful or he breaks down again (which would mean an 8 month layoff by the way). 

 

But it's nothing to do with an issue in our medical department.

 

Same with Barnes... they attempt to avoid operations if at all possible. Specialists will always advise to build back to fitness with physio work before thinking about operations.

The only one I think could be levelled at our medical team is the Willock re-occurence.

I still don’t think that the injury crisis is ‘bad luck’.  There’s a problem here.  This isn’t happening elsewhere - our lot drop like flies, and either get immediately re-injured or short absences become long ones

 https://www.premierinjuries.com/injury-table.php Never used it before so no idea but thought Chelsea and Man U were similar

If what you’re saying is accurate why are we the team who seems to be only facing these issues? Our injury reoccurrence rate is astonishing. 
 

maybe other clubs take a surgery first approach knowing a reoccurrence after physio treatment is an absolute disaster.

January doesn't sound that bad, but somehow that's like another 6 games at least. 

 

Klopp was moaning about MaCallistar being out for over a week for same reason. 

 

December fixture is a bit of a joke for clubs trying to compete.

specifically this and Botman situation seem very strange and doesnt feel like normal injury stories you hear in football. 

 

Definitely need a massive investigation into what can be done to limit injuries and improve training/recovery methods to prevent this happening again in future seasons, and invest correctly to rectify.

Howe saying he might still need an operation as well.

This is what he actually said "It's the same now with Harvey Barnes, he won't need an operation but we are waiting to see if he comes back or not." 


Nevermind :( He also said "It’s a setback to a degree. Where he’s felt pain in his foot again. Hopefully it’s not a permanent setback and he won’t need an operation. There’s still a chance that might happen.”

Apologies @ponsaelius

It is absolutely 100% true. The source on the Botman stuff is the horses mouth. And the source for the physio info is my brother-in-law, who is a sports physio.

 

Is our injury re-occurence rate really astonishing? Willock this season? Isak last season?

 

Other than that, what exactly has re-occured? Murphy's shoulder doesn't count because that is and always has been a major possibility with shoulder dislocations. You hope it won't happen again but there's every chance it will. It's a ballache of an operation to recover from so you try to avoid it.

 

Some players have had setbacks, yes, but that is part and parcel of football injuries... always has been.

They’ve been listed already in the thread, we have no players and those players we get back are injured again shortly after as witnessed with several players. 
 

so the question is why is this happening and what can be done to address it in the future? We simply can’t afford such situations to occur.

Isak and Willock. That's all right?

Targett got injured and right away, Botman touched some grass and has seemingly made it worst same with Barnes. 
 

We are clearly doing something wrong on this area and we have to address it.
