Signing Injury Prone Players

[edskan]

I hope we learn our lesson in the next recruitment drive and not sign players who have a bad track record for injuries (as they rarely come out of that cycle). We seem to have signed more players with questionable/dodgy injuries than other clubs and I don't understand why. The latest is Nketiah (who was also often 'injured' at Arsenal). Off the top of my head others include Wickham, Ferguson and Franca (injured when we signed him).

It is very annoying but I'm fairly sure every team has a couple of sick notes in their squad. We obviously just notice the ones at Palace more.

A few that spring to mind that always seem to be injured.

Mount - United
Lavia - Chelsea
Bentacur - Spurs... And the rest of their squad
Broja - Burnley

But I definitely agree that we need to be very careful when investing large sums of money.
