Somebody with a stats head should do an analysis. Are we disproportionately hit with long-term serious injuries/illness  to important players/big signings?

It seems to be way out of proportion with us. Off the top of my head

Nillis
Laursen
Kozak
Bent
Grealish
Ehiogu in 1998/99 being out for a time more or less derailed our season.

Edit: Gary Charles, Dion Dublin, and I recall Benteke getting a few bad ones too.



Curtis Davies ruptured his Achilles Tendon in March 2008 whilst on loan from West Brom. However, we still signed him permanently later that summer......He did a similar injury much later in his career with Derby County.

We signed Downing pre-fucked.

With an injury inflicted by one of our own players when we played Boro.

Watching Saturdays highlights you could see his confidence was growing and there is no doubt Gerrard sees him as a leader so this is a real blow to our aspirations

My non footballing mate has just played footy with him in Cyprus in a Dads v Kids game

He is currently part of a kids football camp in Limassol.   

My mate got all 'new holiday friends'  with him

He was ever so chuffed  :)

but I set him straight about the original Rat boy   ;)
