Show Notes
We’re joined by Michael Green, an elite-level physio who’s worked in professional football across different clubs and projects, including time with the FA and supporting players through PFA rehab pathways. We get into what actually happens after a “routine knock” turns into months out, why ACL timelines are never as simple as fans want them to be, and why hamstrings are basically their own medical universe. Michael also tackles the big Spurs talking points: pitch surfaces, fixture congestion, intensity of playing style, rotation, injections and why you sometimes need weeks to know if they’ve worked. Plus, the bit nobody talks about enough: how stress, sleep and mental load can quietly push players towards injury.
