BEHIND THE SCENES: Fulham FC Sports Scientist, Lewis MacMillan. Fit, healthy & robust players form the foundation for success at a football club.  In 2018/19 Premier League teams paid £221m to injured players and this season we have seen a 42% increase in muscular injuries. For this exclusive, Paul sat down with Fulham's 1st team Sports Scientist Lewis MacMillan to discuss a plethora of issues. From why we have seen a spike in injuries across the league to the value that young managers, like Scott Parker, see in sports science. From the return of the 5 sub-rule to ensuring that key bagsman Mitrovic is getting the right amount of sleep. If you enjoyed this episode why not check out Episode 14 with the Club Doctor @ Watford FC.
