great insight to how he wants us to play and how we're playing...

interesting that we're getting a lot of hamstring injuries - what causes them?

When it happened at Newcastle last season Souness was critical of the training pitches?  I put it down to having injury prone players like Owen and Dyer in the squad though.  As for at STFC it could be the pitches, or just injury prone individuals.

Heavy pitches cause them, well I used to get hamstring strains when I played when the pitches were muddy/heavy anyway.

If that's the case were hamstring injuries a major issue in the 60s, 70s and 80s?  these days the priches are generally much better in comparison.

hamstrings weren't invented until 2001.

You can only pull your hamstring on the first Saturday of the month when the moon is waning.

it's probably the expensive flashy sports cars that our players all drive, the clutch over-works the hamstring.

ryan giggs used to suffer the same problem and now drives an automatic.
