But then you have someone like Van Persie who clearly is incredibly coordinated but has suffered a lot of long term injuries...it's a difficult one but it is amazing how certain layers are more injury prone. I wonder if it is also something to do with being a bit 'awkward' in both the timing and way a player challenges. Also not having a sound judgement of knowing what to do and when.
I think Phil Jones is an example of this and he is another who spends time out with injuries. I don't think it's totally down to bad luck.
be sound once berto takes us down thenSome players bodies aren't cut out for elite level sport.
If he dropped a few levels he wouldn't have half as any issues.
I bet it was BarryI'm not disputing he's injury prone. However, I normally associate injury proneness with muscular injuries, and not broken bones.
He's clearly taken a hefty whack, so I wouldn't class this injury as being anything other than unfortunate.

Didn't bring Gibson, Distin, Pienaar or Howard here like...We have a shed load of sick notes and useless players,martinez needs to get a grip of the situation, he bought them here the useless cart.
He is still a useless cart in my opinion, giving contract extensions to players that are past it, could do with a clear out starting with him.Didn't bring Gibson, Distin, Pienaar or Howard here like...
Moyes left him an aging squad that needed fresh new blood brought in.
Its a process that is going to take some time.
There's a thing called a squad.He is still a useless cart in my opinion, giving contract extensions to players that are past it, could do with a clear out starting with him.
Koff you bellend your just using anything to ramble on about roberto and slate himHe is still a useless cart in my opinion, giving contract extensions to players that are past it, could do with a clear out starting with him.
