Could all these injuries we have be related to the 'hardest ever preaseason (fitness wise) that Ash talked about? Is this inexperience from Monk...breaking them in too hard, too early? These players injured now will have to recover and build their fitness back up again so its not ideal. |  | | |  |

Chico got kneed in the back
Donnelly was subject of a shocking tackle
Rangel got a dead leg
Amat got a slight hamstring strain
Emnes and Britton got knee problems
Only one is a muscle injury - the rest are impact injuries. Nothing to do with being overworked at all. |  |

Wouldn't think so as most of them are contact injuries.
Also Garry has a whole medical backroom staff to advise him | | | |

This^^^^
Impact injuries are almost impossible to predict and/or prevent.
If it was a string of hammys and groin strains ala Oscar Garcia then fingers could be pointed |  |

Good point, but in my experience in football there is a certain degree of 'all the gear but no idea' in relation to some of the Sports 'science' that is used...! | |

I'm sure there is, but my point to the O.P. was that I would hope that Garry takes advice and then takes a balanced decision | | | |

Definitely Garry's fault! We never had any injuries before he took over! |  | | |

Still, trying to look dispassionately, interesting to note that no injury whatsoever is in any way attributed to a rookie manager giving the squad a self-proclaimed hard pre-season work-out...
Just an observation. I don't know the truth. Just interesting to see how people react to the news.
The slightest strain last year was blamed at the manager and his staff, this season....? just bad luck?
Cool, just observing. |  |

Jose Manuel Flores' back injury was likely due to carrying around his massive ego all day. | | | |

These friendlies are an unfortunately necessity.
Whilst we view them as an opportunity to try out differing options, how many of the lesser teams we play actually give it greater priority, come what may, to win the bragging rights of beating a PL team? Thus an increasing number of contact injuries. I don't mean to demean lesser team but it was the only way to make my point. 
The management and backroom staff need to watch this situation carefully, and I'm sure they do, as players are already injured for our opening match. |  |

At my age straight line running is a blessing.

this. the previous manager was also blamed for injuries that he couldn't prevent in a busy schedule, seems like there is a theme going on with blame the manager for all injuries no matter what the cause | | | |

The previous manager was blamed for employing a clueless c*nt who tired the players out in pre season.
Look at Jan Ekstrand on Twitter and read the journals on injuries. Makes interesting viewing (well for a boring c*nt like me anyway) | |

I've heard that the players hate Monk's training sessions and have been to see the chairman to complaint about it. |  |

I've heard that there's a mutiny because he's started wearing brown shoes and stroking their faces in a strange hypnotic way whilst murmuring repeatedly 'in that respect, like I said, oytstandun'. |  |

Short, sharp intense training in steps... the more you train.. the less likely injuries will occur.. train correctly though.. after Christmas they should revaluate the training schedule for specific periods of rest on individuals.. <- this is the most important part of the season.. players must be honest about their fitness.. (f*ck knows if it's correct.. it's just a guess..no googling, books etc... I say on instinct) |  |
