****ing nora! This season has been an absolute abomination with injuries, and poor form.  2 of the brightest prospects for Leicester in modern history both get ACL injuries within a month of each other.  It is either incredible bad luck or something in training for the amount we get.  I wonder if the new training ground has a problem with the soil.  It happened to Arsenal when they first moved to their new training ground.  They had a lot more tissue injuries.  Either that or the training needs to be looked at to find out why we have so many tissue injuries.  Add the 2 Achilles injuries for Ricardo and Justin, it doesn't look good.

Would be interesting to hear the medical teams take on this

Whilst I know these things are freakish, especially Alves.

 

There was ABSOLUTELY NO REASON he should have been playing in an U18's game the evening after playing very briefly for the first team.

There was also ABSOLUTELY NO REASON Sammy should have been playing the day before deadline day when we could have sorted him out a loan.

 

I'm more annoyed that these situations were avoidable. 

 

Yes of course they might have both gone out on loan yesterday and torn their ACL's in their first game, but i'd find it more palatable because at least they were doing that whilst following a productive, well thought out career path!

Would be interesting to note how many ACLs have been sustained through impact or just freak injuries. 

 

Alves - horrible challenge 

Pereira - impact (but carried on playing?) 

Fitzhugh - unsure 

Justin - innocuous 

Barnes - innocuous 

Braybrooke - innocuous? Unfortunate? 

 

 

Who else am I missing?

There needs to be a serious investigation into this now. This is wrecking promising careers and costing us genuinely more than Seagrave itself cost in squad value. It's not an exaggeration to say it may have lost two England internationals.

 

It's 'that' unlucky that I just don't think it can be. The odds must be akin to being hit twice by lightning.

Barnes was Patella injury wasn’t it not ACL? Could be wrong though.

Justin did his ACL after landing funny bringing the ball down and his foot getting caught in the turf

 

Braybrooke looks very unfortunate in that when turning the ball has just got caught under his right leg and he has gone over on it

Braybrookes game is all about quick turns and movements of direction, I imagine he puts an immense amount of pressure on his knees doing that. Which is why his development has to be managed well. Including the amount of extra pressure it's put under during S&C work.

They cant exactly account for the ball getting stuck under his leg when he makes that turn and causing him to go over on it can they?
