8 - Pedri

[BusiTheKing]

If I were to attribute it injury to anything, it would be improper pre-season strengthening. Not having worked up to full sprinting comfortably in training for example and then suddenly having to push the muscle in a match.

He certainly looked like was taking it very relaxed in those pre-season games.

 

[Temptation]

What happened? How long is he out for?

 

[Skalman]

so he misses 2 games and the international games and thats it?

ffs

Thank Koeman for his 70+ games in his first professional season. I'm pretty sure it fucked up his muscles in one way or the other.

Don't put any new creative arguments into serghei's head!

Won't tolerate any anti Dutch narratives. Mierenneuker.

Pedri is just injury prone and that's it. I don't think he will ever play 20 games in a row again.

 

[serghei]

Hasn't proved anything in CL tho so he isn't a 'great' player by your standard.

True, Pedri isn't a great player.

 

[Temptation]

Overrated af. If he wasn't Spanish and Barca player, no one would rate him.

We need a Christensen and Balde injury to see Alonso, Roberto and Garcia starting again.

A good manager ensures that every player in the squad understands (and implements) how the manager wishes to play. Getting eliminated from the CL because a few players are missing is not an excuse at Barca. It’s a result of incompetence.

Also, Xavi signed Alonso and extended Roberto. I’ve heard no transfer rumors regarding Garcia. Xavi believes that these players are essential to the squad. It’s his job to make them click.

Christensen is very very good.

Pedri injured again !!

This is why I think Gavi could have more successful career than our wonder boy

 

[Saladin]

Gotta be fucking kidding me... Muscle injuries galore incoming.

The main man is back! Good to have you back.

He played the equivilant of around 40 full games for Barca that season in terms on minutes and club can balance that off v training etc. There had been a 3 month break from football that year before season started also.

The issues for Pedri came when he had the stop/start summer for Euros then Olympics then back to Barca quickly after few weeks off.

Then both Koeman and Xavi rushed him back once injuries started.

Folk are focusing too much on the number of games he played that previous season.. he coped fine physically with that and had played a lot of minutes season before.

The clear change was how the summer and into next season was handled then coaches handling injuries when started.
