Injuries have become the narrative around Adam Forshaw in the past three years and even the Leeds United midfielder admits he’s starting to sound like a broken record. However, a comeback against Elche tonight is hopefully the start of a new, curbed approach to training.
The 31-year-old sat out of his first training session for three weeks yesterday as he allowed his body a little more time to settle before the friendly tonight. A full-blooded approach to every aspect of his game has defined his career up to now, but with guidance from Jesse Marsch, he is trying to calm it down outside matches.
“I was speaking to Jesse about it yesterday and it’s something I’ve got to curb a little bit, especially in training,” he said. “Not in games, but, like yesterday, I just didn’t train for the day to save myself for tonight and I need people to tell me that because I would have trained.
