8 - Pedri

[Masetro10]

I would say maybe it's time to sacrifice Pedri for 120m. He is a good player but he no longer has a chance to be the great player. Injury prone. Take your chances with Gavi. Then again every young Barca player is injury prone.

Injury till at least the end of January. Could be longer.

Bet that he will be injured again around April (when the season is reaching its climax).

Love him but club must think about this. This is the third time.

 

[serghei]

You don't have to be a genius to figure this out. It's a combination of the player being frail physically and the club playing him too much too early while his body wasn't yet properly developed.

Only thing that makes sense.

 

[Windhook]

Club and nation as well. That 80 game season was madness that Pedri pays heavy price now.

 

[Gnidrologist]

Injured doing what? Lifting glintwein glass?

Why would anybody take player that gets injured doing nothing? At least Dembele teared his muscles on the pitch. Isn't this the third time he basically gets injured 'at home' and gets out of game for months? I bet the January is 'optimistic'. It will get extended. The guy is cripple.

We surely fucked him up as well, but allowing him to play the Olympics that season was an outrageous decision. One that's impossible to grasp.

Train long shot with his right.

He also chose to play in the Olympics. He has a mind of his own too. Besides, can clubs prevent players from representing their national teams when injuries aren't present?

Clubs can prevent players from playing unless it's a FIFA sanctioned event.
Olympics is not that or part of the football calendar so it's up to the clubs whether they allow their players to take part or not.

Okay; I stand corrected. Club, country and player are to blame for his participation in the Olympics, and we’re seeing the ramifications of that now.

Its worrying because players with this kind of build don't usually get injured, let alone be injured all the time. That's typically for bigger explosive players.

Come to think of it it started with the advent of his 'physical training' which doesn't seem to have been coordinated properly with the club and god knows which experts he has advising him.
He needs to drop all the physical training stuff, at least for now, because it clearly isn't helping and might be damaging his play more as opposed to before. Has barely gained any size either.

 

[serghei]

Physically weak players get muscular injuries too, not just explosive types. He hasn't played like a physical player anyway, been the same old Pedri all this time.

Not really. Guys like Bruno, Busquets, Jorginho basically never get injured.
Those kind of low intensity players usually don't because they are more long distance types. The explosive big contraction players like Dembele or Adama or Araujo suffer it more.
For Pedri to it is very strange and also that its suddenly come on as opposed to being something he experienced his whole life (as Fati did).

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

He has too much artificial emf/electrosmog in his environment. Probably microwaves from his airpods, phone, wifi and playstation controller. Of course his doctors are completely ignorant of the hierarchy of toxins since it's all legal and within ICNIRP guidelines.
