Yep so you're validating my point - Hargreaves, Woodgate, King, plus Diaby - that's 4 examples, which is kind of what I meant by 'very few'.

Of the above examples, 3 had chronic knee issues and the other had multiple injuries all stemming from an ankle-breaking tackle early in his career.

Sturridge has had none of these things. He'll be back, don't panic ;)

So you don't buy into the theory that persistent or regular injuries have a long lasting affect on the mind of the individual, not just their physical abilities?

Mate all I said was that very few players have their careers ruined by injury, and that I don't think Sturridge will be one of them.

No doubt injury preys on a player's mind, but if that worry is enough to end their career then they're not mentally cut out for football at this level.

Pretty simple bro.

Do you just like arguing or something?
