Lionator Posted 19 March 2014 Posted 19 March 2014 Earlier, the club posted a story about a conference that was held at Belvoir Drive on Sunday to do with injury prevention. Leading it was Jan Ekstrand who is a highly respected figure in Sports Medicine and is also vice-chairman of the UEFA Medical Committee. Anyway after a bit of research, it appears that he strongly believes that coaches are responsible for injuries at high level professional clubs. I wonder if Mr. Davies was at the conference.

He said high level - rules Mr Davies out
AKCJ Posted 19 March 2014 Posted 19 March 2014 Look at Redknapp and Davies. Both dinosaurs of the game, neither have coped with change. Pearson is probably one of the select few who does genuinely look at things like this and I believe it's one of the leading reasons as to why he's the best manager outside the PL.
stb1996 Posted 19 March 2014 Posted 19 March 2014 Apparently the same has been said for Felix Magath's old clubs Well at least that then clears up any doubt. Billy is a shite coach
Callabinho Posted 19 March 2014 Posted 19 March 2014 You don't get as many injuries as forest have as a result of bad luck, Billy clearly doesn't give a shit about the conditioning of his players, Wes being the prime example. At forest Wes always looked good, but always looked like he had a little bit of extra timber! here he is lean and mean and it has made him twice the player.

Same has been said with Dyche too. It's no co-incidence that us and Burnley are at the top and have suffered very few injuries.
LcFc_Smiv Posted 19 March 2014 Posted 19 March 2014 This needs too start from the very bottom, we learn how to read, we learn how to write, so why are we neglected the opportunity to learn how to move correctly. Hamstring injuries are the most common injuries in sport, Netball a sport that involves the most stop, starts, twists, turns, jumps, bounds, all movements that should cause strain to the hamstrings, has the fewest hamstring injuries of all sports. This is all down to the way they train their players, the drills are dynamic, specific and game orientated. We're obsessed with hurdles and cones, making players run through a course with a ball at their feet, stop, join the back of a line and wait there turn to go again, we don't train to the specific needs of our players or to football.

Top post. A few coaches I know are very scathing of teams with lots of injuries, saying those teams need to look at how they look after players
Stadt Posted 19 March 2014 Posted 19 March 2014 Wenger is supposedly very keen on sports science, obviously their training isn't easy on joints and muscles.
LcFc_Smiv Posted 19 March 2014 Posted 19 March 2014 Something that has just come to me, in terms of the age of our squad, I'd say we're relatively young for a side. In football, younger players are generally more impressionable, and tend to buy in to the sports science side more. I'm not saying older players don't take to it, but you tend to find they can be more set in their ways. The case with footballers seems to be they are either 100% committed, or 100% arrogant, if you are inbetween, then you won't make it. If you look at our side compared to that of Forests (I know that it may not be a significant comparison to other teams) we are a younger side across nearly all positions. Players like Nugent, Dyer, Konch, Was, Wes, have either played at thee top level where they will have been exposed to the sports science a bit more, or are 100% committed, both cases leading to buying in to the system here. I actually feel for the athletic support staff at Forest, if the manager doesn't buy in (which I doubt I does) and the majority of players don't buy in (I think the evidence is there) then it must make it a tough job!
AoWW Posted 20 March 2014 Posted 20 March 2014 Should we fly to all away games then? Not on a Boeing 777 - we had enough of the team going missing last season!
theessexfox Posted 20 March 2014 Posted 20 March 2014 What do people think about the Tigers' injury crisis then? Bad coaches? Bad luck?
Aus Fox Posted 20 March 2014 Posted 20 March 2014 What do people think about the Tigers' injury crisis then? Bad coaches? Bad luck? Bad sport
Weller in Tights Posted 20 March 2014 Posted 20 March 2014 What do people think about the Tigers' injury crisis then? Bad coaches? Bad luck? Wrong shaped balls leads to painful injury!!!!
