I know Owen Hargreaves only played 57 mins but is it a sign Utd need a new fitness coach as they have picked up quite a few muscle injuries over the last few years and Hargreaves only lasted a few mins against West Brom last season.

Is it something that needs a addressed because Raymond Verheijen the Wales fitness coach has mentioned it before

Man Utd do on average play the most games from the English teams, and we don't get a rest in the Winter period like the other countries do and every second year most of our players are playing in International matches.

It is hard finding the rest between those times.

If you can provide the evidence on United injuries last couple of seasons and where it highlights the injuries are muscle related please. Would be great to see that. Thanks.

Well I cant get all the details off hand but can get the figures somewhere Im sure but we lost Wellback a few weeks back with a muscle injury can hardly say he was overworked after a few games of the season

I genuinely believe Hargreaves would've made the game with Barca very much closer despite his injury record; he's just got that extra gear and class about him that their over central mid's don't have.

Well if there were an inordinate amount of Utd players with muscle injuries for 2/3 years then yes it could be aimed at the fitness regime but it is probably just down to the make up of the player. Saha was also another injury prone player, and that has not changed even though he has moved on.

We will see how long Hargreaves will stay fit for although the amount of help Utd gave him to even still be playing, he'll now probably be like superman.
