In his first few months, Solanke seemed to get sucked into that chaos and ran around the final third like a headless chicken, often needlessly dipping into the middle third too. Over time, he appeared to grow into his understanding of the role and the whole team looked much better as a result.
I thought he just got hurt at Leicester and struggled to recover, to be honest.
He was doing well when he got back up to speed, but then had to play every game.
 
Dejan Kulusevski has a foot injury. How has that happened? Who knows?

Reportedly missing Alkmaar and Bmouth. I guess it was inevitable he'd pick up an injury eventually. I think that's only Pedro Porro unscathed this season out of the entire outfield squad and two goalkeepers which is just nuts <laugh>

He's injured at a time when attackers are returning and in droves and tbh badly needs to just lie on a beach for a week, so maybe this is a blessing in disguise.
 
What are they doing in training to cause so many muscle injuries?

This is more than just bad luck now, something somewhere is causing these issues.

That's been clear for a while.

The unscientific approach is to blame 'luck'. The scientific approach is to first rule out all other possibilities.

I've also seen rumours this week that Richarlison has flown out an expert from Brazil to consult about his latest setback as a second opinion.

It does seem that something somewhere is very broken, and the players don't trust it anymore.

Players getting second opinions from their national team or previous club physios is not as uncommon as people make it out to be

Vinicius Jr paid out of his own pocket to fly Santos' physio to Spain while Lionel Messi had the Argentine national team's physio live in his house for a time when he was at Barca, yet there was no suggestion that either Los Ladrones or Barca had hopelessly inept medical/physio teams
 
This is getting like groundhog day , seeing reports that Kulusevski's injury is worse than first thought , wonder how good the Swedish physio team is ?
