Coop Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I paid £65M for Benzema and he been injured 4 times in 5 games (I don't mean a knock, I mean game ending injuries). Is this a record? The game he didn't get injured I'd subbed him at HT Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScouseFromTheSouth Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Oba Martins picks up knocks a lot. Haven't suffered this too much, but I do notice that it's always the best players who get the long injuries, while the totally replaceable players generally manage to be available for 38 games per season.

Coop Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 According to my scouts before I signed him (or my coaches now) he does not have any weaknesses. He should not be injury prone. Thankfully all the injuries have been short term. My team is missing him as he's by far my best striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerChris Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Got one regen, fantastic striker. 4 seasons virtually injury free, scoring goals galore, this season he's had the worst luck. Out for 3 weeks, then for 4 months, now for another 3 weeks. No wonder i've been lacking goals! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 My fans were delighted at my transfer coup at the beginning of my game, June 08. I persuaded Stephen Appiah to come to my Championship side on a free. He was my marquee signing, on the highest wages and intended to be club captain. He arrived injured and remained on the treatment table until the season was well underway. As soon as he was back in light training and moved to the reserve squad, he got injured again. This has happened again and again - now nearing the end of the season he has played 20 minutes of one reserve game (got injured of course). I think he's listed as have picked up 6 separate injuries - all without earning one penny of his fat salary. Love it!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafa2007 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Not my striker, but a newgen in my game, that makes Michael Owen's injury problems look small. He's only 27 btw, he has 3 injuries missing off there (I couldn't fit them onto 2 slides), they are: Thigh strain - 3 weeks Dead leg - 6 days Damaged heel - 13 days Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKL92 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 in my save, rooney has been virtually out since january 2009, after a serious injury, he would receive another in a reserve game or on international duty, so he has only played about 10 games out of around 30 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-evo Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I've got a striker called Shaun Tuck who consistantly gets injured for around two weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love it!! would be great if these were knee injuries. not all big risk signings pay off i guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyko Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Lee Holmes for my Saints team has been on and off the treatment table in the 1 and 1/2 seasons i've been playing. Have been very carefull with him and have now managed to get him to play in 2 of my last 3 games for at least 60 mins in both. Hoping he has turned a corner, and can help me in the run in.

50_kwache Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Robin Van Persie can only play about 5 matches in a row for me before he is crocked. Mind you he is in his 30s now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 would be great if these were knee injuries. not all big risk signings pay off i guess. Knee, ankle, back - the lot. It's not as if I rush him back. Just bad luck, I guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeXe Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I had the same problem with Appiah, basically whenever he got fit enough to play either a reserve game or come off the bench in a first team game he'd get injured again... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted April 7, 2009 Author Share Posted April 7, 2009 I said 4 injuries in 5 games. Well I'm now in February (Benzema joined in July) and he's on injury number 6. For £65M I've been robbed. I wonder how much I will get for him if I try to sell in the summer? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
