Wots going on with all these injuries I'm 50 and still play if I get a injury of some sort of niggle like wot they say frey has had I'm out for the next weeks game but make sure I'm back for next as I'm desperate to play but our players seem to be out for weeks and weeks seem to be the same story at qpr I would question our medical team

2nd half of last season we was clear of all injuries, just one of those things this season & it happens to all clubs, we are no different

Players don't play through any pain barrier that might end up shortening their careers whilst earning circa £500k per year plus. They want to max their earning potential. Miraculous recoveries can happen six months before their contracts expire too. I suspect it's a job for most and the love of the game went many years before. They know they're in a meat market. The days of pain killers and crippled 40yr old ex players have gone.

Can't know for sure but Frey don't strike me as a malingerer. Just one of those things.

Willock last season is a good example of that. Suddenly in the final games of the season he was back looking pretty fit from what I can remember.

Yeah, but likewise going through the motions to avoid further injury. You can't blame them really when they have their futures on the line. Very few play for the club these days, but you get the pretend badge kissers. No footballer needs to carry lifelong damage, but many tweaks you can run off.
