was it trying to get out of bed or when he stretched after waking up? sure they said it was when he stretched after waking up.

How unfit do you have to be for that to give you a muscle strain.

Got him in my dream team too, will have to get shot..

[Dokko]

Considering he's a goalkeeper it has to rank in the top 3 like.

[Fugazi]

I'm sure I remember an English keeper dropping a jar of something on his foot, happened a while back.

 

EDIT: It might have been Dave Beasant actually.

From what I read, it wasn't a muscle strain, though, but rather some weird nerve pressure thingy. I've seen something like that happen to a friend, and it was hilarious. Obviously very painful.

I think the problem is that footballers are so fit that it only takes the slightest thing for them to pull a muscle.  A bit like a finely tuned racing car I suppose, in that it doesn't take a lot for them to break down or not run properly.....

 

It does make you laugh though, I have played football for nearly 30 years and never really had an injury that stopped me from tutning out.  Slight strains and knocks were just played through.

Also... some player injured his knee while walking his dog. Got tangled up in the lead making his leg twist. Can't remember for sure who it was, but Cudicini comes to mind.

Arca was out for a while with a jellyfish sting as well.

 

I remember when Southampton had two very apt injuries for the same match with Peter Crouch out with a damaged knee and Micheal Poke out with a broken finger.

[Astroblack]

Roy Carolll got injuered picking the ball out of the net.

 

I think it was Reo Ferdinand who got injured changing the channel. And I remember David James getting injured playing Tomb Raider or something like that.
