Both were with the national team during this international campaign week and both picked up injuries there so as many other players representing their countries which brings us back to the ever continuous argument what’s really happening to this recent hike of injury. Most people have pointed out that since the covid vaccine was issued players are more less fragile and easing prone to injury but I personally don’t buy that. My biggest point where is that this players are more or less in a state of fatigue and some things needs to be looked at.
Many will disagree with me but I will say international breaks within the middle of the season should be cancelled if at all they need players around before a major tournament then the break should be like for a month before the tournament traveling continuously creates fatigue and fatigue that’s one thing that is affecting this players. The EPL itself is the worst they engage in numerous competitions and hardly have even a winter break for the players. Yes many will say it was like this since ages but I will say players then weren’t repeatedly playing 100 minutes due to VAR
