We were lucky Honduras or El Salvador weren't playing for keeps. You trust CONCACAF refs and rivals over Bundesliga? In any case, this wasn't a foul, he was all alone when it happened, for me your "roughed up" point doesn't make sense. Roughed up, over worked. Same shit. Pick your poison.

Kent Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 For the people talking about the compressed COVID season and 3 match international windows, I don't think that plays a role in Davies' injury. Remember that he missed all of January, February, and March (at least, don't remember when he was back for Bayern) with his heart issue. If the World Cup was in the summer, who would have been missing? When was Osorio hurt, might have been after the World Cup would have started. Hutch would have been out. I think Kennedy would be out either time. Henry probably would have been out, but I am just going off of memory here. Plus if it was in the summer perhaps the MLS season would have had to be more compressed and could have caused physical strain on all the other MLS guys. So Kaye, Piette, Miller, Johnston, Laryea (or he might've not come back to TFC yet I suppose). Injuries suck. They can happen at any time, and they can be for any length of time. You can blame FIFA and Qatar for a lot of things, but injuries I think is maybe a bit much. I would be interested in seeing some statistics though about how many players will miss the World Cup due to injury compared to other years, but I'm sure that's tough to calculate since you can't prove that the injured player would have been called up if they were healthy (of course in some cases it is obvious). red card 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free kick Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 (edited) Another problem with this injury is the impact it has on game planning. Herdman would have, no doubt, had by now an idea of the game plan and players needed to carry out that game plan. It obviously would have included Davies. With this news, if it means Davies is out, it throws a big monkey wrench into the whole plan. That might be the bigger concern than the absence itself.

Jack1997 Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 This injury scares me, I have a feeling it’s going to be a 2 week injury which would put him right back in time for the WC but honestly that might be best case scenario.

frmr Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 I don't think it looked very serious, but that's just to say that it didn't look like he'll be out for several months. It could non-serious and he could still just miss the World Cup, so even a non-serious hamstring injury could be extremely serious within the current context. All we can do is hope. We dodged a bullet with the kick to the face. Twice lucky? cornerkick and Obinna 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floortom Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 This is a good study on hamstring strains (again, if it’s a serious tear than he’s out for Qatar and this study isn’t relevant) https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/48/11/929#ref-3 it analyzed hamstring strains in NFL athletes over 10 years and finds that: 41% of players with the injury returned in less than a week, another 41% returned between one and three weeks, and only 18% of injuries lasted longer than three weeks.

The disaster scenario is Davies doesn't play and Canada doesn't get out of the group. Meanwhile the most likely scenario with a healthy Davies is Canada doesn't get out of the group.
