Could it be the training ground?

Its the JJ air


What is for sure, I have never seen a team with this so much injuries.. maybe merda during R9 days they had
R9, Baggio, Vieri, Recoba, Zamorano, Kanu, Ventola, Mutu, Robbie Keane, Hakan Şükür and Crespo during these years.. and most of the seasons they were injured



Anyway.. chatgpt discussion



What is going on with Juve's injuries?

I've been thinking about this because it feels like injuries have become a recurring theme at Juventus for years.

Conte's first season in 2011/12 was remarkable: only 13 injuries and 40 total league games missed through injury — the lowest in Serie A. Of course, there was an important advantage: no European football, so much more recovery and preparation time.

In Conte's following seasons, once Champions League football returned, injuries did increase and there were some serious/long absences — Chiellini, Pepe, Bendtner, etc. So that incredible first-season record wasn't maintained.

Early Allegri didn't feel particularly alarming either. But over the years, through different coaches, different fitness staffs and different squads, injuries seem to have become a recurring Juventus problem rather than something linked to one manager.

And now 2026/27 looks crazy.

Yildiz → fractured 5th metatarsal, surgery.
Thuram → knee chondropathy, surgery.
Locatelli → meniscus, surgery.
Boga → biceps femoris tear.
Cabal → semimembranosus strain in training.
Ekhator → semitendinosus injury in training.
And now Grabara → ACL tear in training.

Four players requiring/heading toward surgery within roughly three weeks.

Obviously you can't blame the medical or fitness staff for every injury. A broken foot, meniscus damage and an ACL can simply be bad luck. But the repeated muscular injuries, particularly thigh/hamstring injuries and some occurring during training, are harder to ignore.

And Grabara surprised me most. An ACL rupture in a goalkeeper during training? Of course it can happen — goalkeepers can rupture an ACL through twisting, landing or changing direction — but it's certainly not the injury you normally associate with the position.

So after all these years and all these different coaches, I genuinely wonder:

Is this just terrible luck and modern football workload, or is there something in Juve's conditioning, load management, recovery or return-to-play methods that needs to be questioned?

Because at some point you have to ask:

What the hell is going on at Continassa?

An average day of a Juventus player… lol

Now that scientific materalism cannot explain the absurdity of our injury crisis, we can only resort to superstition.



The plan is that someone has to be sacrificed. We offer him as an oblation to Aceso, the Greek goddess of curing and healing. She then make him sustain all the major injuries in the team for one season, so that other players won't suffer any severe injury throughout the season.



But remember. First, the chosen player can't be too marginal a figure in the squad otherwise we are being insincere. Second, even goddess is not omnipotent, so minor injuries are still unavoidable.



De Sciglio and Milik had both fulfilled the role for JJ in the past seasons. In other clubs, Vermaelen once did it for Barcelona and Hazard, Real Madrid.



It seems too late this season to do this ritual but in case of more unfortunates, I offer Cambiaso.

If even Locatelli’s injury couldn’t solve that then i’m afraid nobody will lol

3 weeks of time to recuperate for these guys... Yildiz in particular should come in handy when we're playing like this. Let's hope he's back soon.

For a second there i almost thought that we’ll be having Yildiz back after this intl break but then i remembered he is only scheduled to return sometime between November-December.

 

[Juve-Fan-Iraq]

Wasn't there a season where we had about 50+ injuries? We might break the record ar this rate...

 

[Raphaël]

Surprise, surprise

Another one bites the dust.

I've become emotionally numb to these injuries now, enough to become apathetic to it, like what happens to a person that becomes burnt out. Meh, who's next?

lol this is funny

Hopefully David Luiz.

Also this, seems like we actually might’ve dodged this one after all.

Found a positive outlook on the injury crisis for once:

[Robee]

Made his debut. So it's only right for him to be injured now.

 

[DanielSz]

i think Makiobo was going to take his spot even before this injury.

Juventus treatment room, injury status update:

For Conceição, it is a bruise and no particular concern is filtering. Both medical staffs are in constant contact;

For Owusu, a 2-3 week layoff, slight muscle discomfort in the rectus femoris;

Cambiaso has been training with the group for two sessions and aims to return to the squad list for the match against Cagliari;

Boga continues with an individualized program. His return is expected between late October and early November;

For Ekhator, no official appearances yet. His return is also projected in about a month;

Cabal targets a return against CeltaVigo in mid-October, even though he is considered on the margins of the technical project;

Yildiz is back in Turin with a brace and could make his return between December and January;

❌ For Locatelli and Thuram, we will need to wait until 2027.
