Tranmere Rovers midfielder Brad Walker has opened up about his struggles with injury since joining the Club after his impressive return to the side in recent weeks.
Brad a commencé les deux derniers matchs de Sky Bet League Two sous Nigel Adkins et a bien joué à chaque fois.Pendant les derniers mois, le 27-year-old a subi une intervention chirurgicale pour une blessure, mais il a travaillé dur pour retrouver son état actuel.
“J’ai eu un début un peu difficile avec aucune présaison réelle après ma chirurgie. I didn’t start the season how I wanted to and couldn’t find myself back in the team, but I’m happy now I’m back.
Il était difficile. No player wants to be injured, and especially during the time I was injured, when the injury just kept reoccurring, I had to get surgery to fix it.”You just have to be professional and come in every day and try and get yourself better, and I’ve worked my socks off to get back to where I am.”
Since suffering a serious ACL injury in the Carabao Cup match at Tranmere Rovers last August, Krafft hasn’t played for Newcastle. The 29-year-old has recently returned to training and will be part of the Newcastle Under-21s squad to face Nottingham Forest Under-21s in the Premier League 2 Division 2 at Whitley Park this Friday evening (7pm kick-off).
Avant le match de Premier League contre Burnley à St James’ Park ce samedi, Eddie Howe, le coach principal de l’équipe nationale, a donné une information sur les blessures de ses joueurs. Krafth, Harvey Barnes (foot) et Joe Willock (Achilles) ont été éliminés.
Howe a déclaré lors de sa presse de presse pré-match que “Harvey est clairement absent et les autres joueurs de long terme continuent d’être absents – Joe Willock est absent et Emil Krafth est absent, mais il joue ce soir pour les Under-21s, ce qui est vraiment intéressant à voir.”
Additionally, Howe told The Gazette, commenting on Krafth’s return to first-team training earlier this month, “It’s early steps for Emil but great to see him back, he’s a brilliant character.””He gets better with every [training session] and I think the group is happy to see him with us again, he has a great mentality and is a vital part of our squad”.
Howe a donné des informations sur Willock en déclarant: “Il se porte bien. Nous espérons qu’il est actuellement dans une phase différente de son retour, où il est sur le sol, plutôt que chez nous, mais les physios et les scientifiques sportifs sont vraiment en train de renforcer sa confiance et sa charge.Tout va bien, semble heureux. I believe the physios has set a very good time for him to return. I believe we will be careful, not rush him back.
Il a toujours une option. I believe he is expected to return to training around the middle to the end of October, and of course he will require some time to regain his proper fitness.
