Roger Red Hat Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 Yes, a shame for Sam as it looked like he was just regaining some good form. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go as far to say it would have been a different outcome on Saturday if he had not got the injury. He had their right sider on toast for pace. After that QPR had nothing to deal with. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t guarantee it would have been a different outcome but as I’ve said in a different thread once Bell went off their right back Dunne had a much easier afternoon.

TinMan's left peg Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 I think the problem was that, other than Max, the rest of the squad all had a major off day. I doubt that Sam playing well on his own would have been enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 (edited) FFS. All the best to Sam, it never rains but it pours eh. How many hamstring injuries is that this season now? Edited February 21 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 Real shame but at least it comes at a time when frankly our season is over. Gives him plenty of time to get himself sorted for pre season though, can’t recall him missing any other significant spell with an injury.

CityReds Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 (edited) Needs surgery! That usually means a full or near full rupture from the bone. Up to 6 months Edited February 21 by CityReds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILINFRANCE Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 With hindsight, we (and he) were very lucky he got that all important first goal against Southampton, as it would have been awful if his last appearance and involvement this season were to have been his unfortunate penalty against Forest. Yes, I know he started against Middlesbrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W-S-M Seagull Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 (edited) When a hamstring goes in the first half and especially after 25 mins I always question it. It shouldn't happen. ly gutted for Bell. As his Dad was one of my favourite players I am very fond of Sammy.

But seems to be ever since the covid interrupted seasons that this trend in football has occurred. I'm not saying covid is the cause. I'm suggesting that the stop start nature was a contributing factor? And then we had the winter world cup too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecko Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 I feel for the lad, must be devastating for a player to be out for so long. Only silver lining is there is only 3 months left of this season. He should be fully fit for August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a lot of medium to long term de rigeur and then short term ones bump it up saw in October 2023 especially. McCrorie and Twine just 2 examples of medium term to long term injuries not long after joining. Atkinson hasn't kicked a ball in a year for first team, Benarous hasn't kicked a ball in 2 years. Baker had to retire, Kalas and Williams major issues. Etc. You can add Pring to that too unless that is reported now? That is a snapshot in time tbh.

Remember that 14/15 title winning season we had barely any injuries and a fairly small squad I had this conversation a few years ago with a friend of mine based in the US who has a PhD in Exercise Science. He couldn’t get over the lack of strengthening our football players do not do in order to protect their hamstrings. He understands how important pace is in the game, but feels our footballers would benefit a lot more by bullet proofing their hamstrings with further strength and conditioning. They’re not Olympic sprinters after all. I also shown him some of City’s strength and conditioning workouts that had been posted on YouTube from pre seasons. Again, he was surprised on the execution of exercises and couldn’t believe how poorly they were being setup and performed by our players. Which I imagine happens across a lot of professional football clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
