Hybrid pitches more injuries

Fri Sep 20, 2019 9:31 am

At the same time that tackling has virtually gone out of the game, clubs injury lists grow ever longer.

Can't help but link training and playing on hard based hybrid pitches?

More injuries but it appears some managers have players out longer Wenger is good example his players appeared out longer with same injuries as other clubs NW is the same our players out much longer than rivals with same type injuries.... is it training or pitches bit both probably , football science as improved out of all recognition so injuries should mean better treatment so quicker return ...

How do you know players from our club are out longer than players from another club with the same injury?

A player with a grade 3 hamstring for example is out for two months approximately but this can vary from
1. Variations in the severity of the tear
2. Person to person.

So a player at one club could be playing again after 2 months and a player from another club could be closer to 3 months especially if he pulls up with another slight strain on recuperation which is common.

Isn’t Sol Bamba (our club) way ahead of schedule?
