to many injuries, for too long, and nobody has any answers... maybe instead off getting milliband who does what?? how about trying to get someone who knows all about training, injuries etc. take a leaf out of the game of rugby, they don't seem to suffer so much, someone like clive woodward.
Birmingham had massive injury problems under Bruce as well, but then Wigan didn't, sooooo. **** knows.
SNQ seems to agree with you Syd lad: (from the OP) "Just five days after his transfer, we learned that we would be without Danny Welbeck for eight weeks ..." I'd go with that.
Welbeck was already injured and was expected to return within a week or 2 but had a setback, just checked on safc.com and before he returned at Arsenal, his last appearance was at Villa Park.
