Injury Timeline

I've mapped out injuries and fitness issues over the course of this season.

Green = Not injured
Orange - Assumed not match fit. If a player is injured then only returns to the bench then player would be classed as not match fit (i.e O'Nien being on the bench and Johnson confirming he wasn't fit enough to start). If a player is injured and comes straight back into the first 11 he is class as match fit on his return.
Red - Injured. Player injured and unavailable for selection.

Blue Line indicates when Johnson was appointed.

There has been some talk that Parkinson had the same injury problems as what Johnson has had. Parkinson's biggest 'crisis' was for 2 games where Xhemalji, Willis, Gooch and O,Brien were all out at the same time. Xhemalji hadn't started a league game for us and O'Brien wasn't featuring in the side at prior to that so 2 players were missing from the starting line up. Parkinson won 0 of them. O'Nien being played at CB has also been put forward as an example of Parkinson's injury problems. Parkinson chose to play O'Nien CB ahead of Sanderson when Flanagan was suspended, then continued to play him ahead of Flanagan and Sanderson. This was not due to injuries.

In comparison Johnson has had constant injury problems. Players who were always first names on the team sheet under Parkinson (Gooch, Willis, Hume, O'Nien and Wyke) were either injured when Johnson arrived, or were injured in that first Wigan game then Flanagan broke his foot shortly after. Covid followed that and then a hernia forced his only fit right back out. His last two games are the only games he's had 2 (or less) first team players out (if not including Xhemalji, Stewart and Winchester as none have yet featured regularly in the side).

We are starting to see players now come back to fitness with the exceptions of Xhemalji (not featured all season anyway), Hume (one of our most important players and now Willis so we should begin to see some improvements and consistency in performances.

You’ve too much time on your hands marra.

Have a like for the effort though.
The sooner this lockdown ends the better.
:lol: :lol:
 
Interesting. The difference is so stark that it makes you wonder if we're doing anything fundamentally different. Is Johnson asking for more high intensity running in-game or is it just pure blind luck?
 
Interesting graph, it does appear that there is a correlation between injuries and when Johnson arrived.

However, it is also winter and the state of the pitches at this level are not good. It could be the fact that they have been playing on shit pitches since Johnson arrived and that is the reason from the additional injures as well and the increase in matches lately.

Would be interesting to see a whole years results compared to previous managers over the whole year.

Top effort, the fact Johnson has been getting similar results as Parky with much fewer options to pick from is worth remembering, Hume has been a massive loss for us imo.
 
Someone is after a job in the data department. You would imagine that clatter gob would be using this sort of information as a matter of course the way he speak about it. However, having the data and knowing how to use the data are two very different things.

f***ing beautiful effort that

Honestly reckon Hume is critical to us. In the Parky era he was undoubtedly our most important attacking player. He's been pretty much completely denied to Johnson. There's lots of faffing that Johnson isn't helping himself with, but the injuries he's had to deal with shouldn't be ignored - and correlation isn't necessary causation when it comes to LJ arriving and our recent injury issues

There's been about a 40% increase in muscle injuries over the leagues this season due to reduced pre season game and fixture congestion. With regards to our injuries:

- Wyke was injured before Johnson got here
- O'Nien was injured before he got here
- Hume was injured in Johnson's first game when he had been here an hour
- Gooch was already injured before he got here
- Flanagan broke his foot
- Wright concussion protocol
- Willis has probably been unfit all season in various degrees (although case for overuse by Johnson lately)
- McLaughlan hernia

Only muscle injuries (which are the ones you usually pick up from overuse/training is Flanagan following an injury layoff for a broken foot which can happen anyway, MacFadzean and Neil. Think they (although I doubt Neil) and Willis are the only ones you can say weren't due to training methods (although Hume's would be down to Parkinson's).

For all the bollocks he often talks, the intentions in what he says are usually laudable. He's not really one for excuses to be fair to him.

Hume was our most important player under Parkinson by a distance imo. Saw this the other day which is just one model he shows well on.

I don't think he would be as important in Johnson's team (with such a large reliance on the front 4), although he would certainly be outperforming the players who have been in to cover him

@samaistonsrightfoot
Winter period, shit pitches, fixture pile up, Covid.
Potentially training methods but a lot came a week or two after arriving. It won't have intensified that much and the other above factors will have contributed. There is a stark contrast and shows the difficulty for Johnson in trying to change the philosophy to a more attacking style. Several disruptions to the squad and not enough time in between games to rectify and put his ideas across.

This is why I'm relatively calm about the displays on the pitch. On the face of it there appears to be little to no improvement as a team from Parkinson. (Individually however, he's working wonders with Wyke) Its clear to me however that there are extenuating circumstances to that and it won't be until next season when we can start to properly evaluate Johnson.

You should apply for a job at sky doing the daily covid graphs mate .
