Gareth Bale still doesn't know why he suffers so many injuries

Gareth Bale says he and Real Madrid still aren't sure why he suffers so many injuries.

The Welshman starts building up steam and then seems to sufer a problem which puts him out of action for a week or two.

“It’s been frustrating. I’d feel I was just hitting my peak and then something would happen,” Bale said in an interview with the Guardian

“We can’t quite put our finger on why. There’s no underlying reason. We’ve looked into everything: the hardness of pitches, boots... I’m running a lot, more than usual, so maybe it’s a bit of fatigue. 

"I need to pace myself a bit better but, when you’re playing well, you just want to keep going. Sometimes I have to think I’m not 19 any more, manage my body better. But injuries do just happen. [Vincent] Kompany, for instance. You just have to do your rehab properly and come back stronger."
