Meet the team so unlucky with injuries that
they would be tempted to hire Jonathan Woodgate as a fitness
coach!
GK Dave Beasant
Famously dropped a jar of salad cream on his foot in the 1993
pre-season and was out for two-and-a-half months.
RB Svein Grondalen
The Norwegian international defender missed an international game
in the 1970s after colliding with a moose while jogging.
LB Darren Barnard
The Barnsley man's injury took the piss. He was out for five months
with knee ligament damage after slipping in his new puppy's
pee.
CB Steve Morrow
Famously fractured his collar-bone when he fell off Tony Adams's
shoulders while celebrating Arsenal's 1993 League Cup win.
CB Shaun Teale
A tale equally as fishy as Lita's account. The Aston Villa
centre-back suffered a gash to his arm while cleaning out the
family fish tank.
RM Perry Groves
Groves managed to knock himself unconscious while warming the
Arsenal bench by headbutting the dugout when he jumped up to
celebrate a goal.
LM Paulo Diogo
The Portuguese player managed to get his wedding ring caught in a
fence while celebrating a goal for Swiss side Servette. He tore off
the top half of his finger and the rest was later amputated. As if
that wasn't bad enough, he was booked for excessive celebration!

SICK STUFF!
CM John Durnin
The then Portsmouth midfielder ruled himself out for six weeks in
1999 after crashing his golf buggy and dislocating his elbow.
CM David Batty
Achilles injuries are not uncommon among footballers, but those
acquired by being hit by toddlers on tricycles are a little more
freakish.
ST Robbie Keane
A young Keane ruptured his knee cartilage in 1998 while stretching
for the TV remote. Still, it was probably worth it if he managed to
mute Clive Tyldesley.
ST Darius Vassell
While at Aston Villa, Vassell picked up a nasty infection after
using a power drill to cut through his toenail and drain a blister
in a bit of DIY surgery.
