A rotton run of injuries for the Lads and finally Bruce is saying a review is necessary to determine the causes. Can anyone else recall a post (it might have been 606) from either a Wigan or Birmingham fan who was critical of Bruce because his squad picked up too many injuries and the players were rushed back too soon? I didn't think anything of it at the time but it seems like too much of a coincidence. It needs sorting.
Training methods perhaps, just dont know the answer, and the back room staff at the SOL, dont have a clue either. suggest players carrying a lighter wallet.
If you look though the team today there are a few still not 100%, Cattermole, Wellbeck, Turner, Bardsly still carrying a knock as is Ferdinand, Muntari not fit and i still don't think that Sess is 100% yet. To be fair, what could he do? he has no option but top pick his best team and hope it pays off, we don't have the strength in depth yet.
Said a few weeks ago 1 of the physios had left, apparently after a major bust up with bruce. Bruce blaming physio & vice versa regarding the injuries, rushing people back etc.
I know the answer, Bruce told them all today to leave their wallets in the changing rooms, some ignored the advice, anyone carrying 40lbs of paper in their back pockets is bound to be sluggish and susceptible to injury due to the excessive weight
