UEFA Champions League Round Of Eight

Clearly not dodgy enough for Guardiola.

JAMIE REDKNAPP ON HANS-WILHELM MULLER-WOHLFAHRT

Usain Bolt sought the help of Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt in the weeks leading up to the London Olympics in 2012. At the time, Jamie Redknapp recalled his experiences with the doctor.

There’s not much I have in common with Usain Bolt. He’s certainly a little quicker than I was at my peak.

But we shared the same doctor when it came to turning to someone in need of urgent repair.

When I was a Liverpool player, I regularly used the tricks and skills of Doctor Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt to rescue me from another injury.

Now Bolt, the greatest sprinter of all time, is visiting his Munich clinic to try and be fit for the London Olympics, which start in 18 days.

I’ve read in these pages about Muller-Wolhfahrt’s methods being described by a senior figure within the US Anti-Doping Agency as ‘Frankensteintype experiments’.

I’m not sure what that means, although with me he would use fluid taken from the comb on the head of a hen to lubricate a knee joint that had been eroded by a succession of injuries.

He would tell me that it was like ‘high quality oil for the engine of a car’.

He concluded that the fluid taken from a hen’s comb would lubricate the knee and allow greater movement. I was happy to do what he suggested to have the confidence to play again.

I’ve also read about him prescribing goat’s blood injections for hamstring injuries.

His methods are successful, which is what has drawn Bolt around the world from his Jamaican training camp and why so many go to see the man they call ‘healing Hans’.

Among the sportsmen and women who have stepped into Muller-Wohlfahrt’s dimly lit office are Steven Gerrard, Ronaldo, Jurgen Klinsmann, Dame Kelly Holmes, Paula Radcliffe, Michael Owen, Jose Maria Olazabal and Maurice Green.

There is talk of controversy about Muller-Wohlfahrt’s methods, but I won’t have a bad word said against him.

I saw him many times and there was never anything untoward suggested.

This is not a back-street quack.

He is still Bayern Munich’s team doctor, world renowned and a master of his art - and they didn’t seem to be doing too badly the last time I watched them in the Champions League Final.

Bolt versus his Jamaican training partner, Yohan Blake, is the golden ticket for London.

Last weekend, Blake beat Bolt, the fastest man on the planet, in back-to-back races over 100m and 200m.

Bolt then withdrew from the Diamond League race in Monaco and the alarm bells are ringing.

Nobody wants him to miss these games, surely not even Blake.

Athletes generally turn to Muller-Wohlfahrt as a last act of desperation, having exhausted all the local practices and medical skills of those they have been closest to.

You can’t tell me that Bolt has flown all the way from Jamaica to Munich without trusting Muller-Wohlfahrt’s art and without searching for a solution a little closer to home.

Like me, he must trust his methods and rely on his advice.

He is renowned for helping sportsmen and women, like Bolt, recover from hamstring problems.

When I tore a hamstring playing for England, I was out for five months. He is getting sportsmen back on track within five weeks.

I only wish I had known about him then.

It appears Bolt has a back problem which may have affected his right hamstring.

It doesn’t sound as if Bolt has suffered a tear, more likely a tweak and if he is unable to trust his hamstrings it might explain why some of his times have been sluggish, by his standards.

Didi Hamann, the former German international, first recommended Muller- Wohlfahrt to me when I didn’t know where else to turn.

I hopped on a plane with the Liverpool physio, hoping we could find some answers.

When I first met him, I was anxious, but he made me feel welcome and relaxed.

He was in his 60s (he’s 70 next month), but he had the skin of a man 20 years younger, with a shock of hair and healthy outlook on life.

He believes in the power of positive thinking, he is a charismatic man who convinces you he can find the answers.

Most doctors do, but he backs it up with achieving success.

His staff are dressed from head to toe in white and he is there, overseeing the treatments and working from 7am-11pm, trying to find the solutions for a conveyor belt of people, including the general public, who come looking for answers.

My club, Liverpool, paid for my treatment through insurance, but when I bumped into Hans at a recent Champions League game, he asked me how my knee was and I told him it was still causing me hassle.

He told me to come and see him and after some treatment I asked him where I could pay the bill.

He said: ‘There isn’t one, Jamie.’

It was a kind gesture from a very skilled man. Bolt is in Safe Hands.

Well that puts an end to any question marks in my eyes anyway.

When the son of Harry Redknapp endorses a mans character who are any of us to question it?

He treated Zlatan like shit. Course he is.

@balbec Any idea how rigorous Polish security would be for the Europa League final? Going over visiting a mate for it and we have tickets in another lads name…

They might check ID. I have a season ticket at Wisla Krakow and the odd time they will ask me for a driving license or my passport even though I have a season ticket with my picture on it. Could be because of the hooliganism down here with Cracovia though. I’d say you should be ok. Fine stadium. How did you manage to get those?

There was a few Everton supporters here that entered the ballot here in case they got to the final. We have four tickets got and looks like it’s just myself and yer man over going for a finish. Will stay a couple of nights in Warsaw and the go down to where my mate is living for a night or two.

There were names on tickets for Euro 2012 there and they didn’t check anything.

There are few more annoying songs/chants in football than that “Schiesst ein Tor” crap that German fans of all clubs seem to sing.

Good point

What does it mean, pal?

Guardiola’s side surrounding the referee multiple times already. Some things never change with that bald drug cheating cunt and his players.

Great chance for Bayern there

Where is that useless cunt Helton that used to play in goals for Porto gone?

That bit means “score a goal.” The bit before means “Come on X” where X is the name of the team playing.

Bayern have started very brightly and that goal was already deserved, Great cross from Bernat.

Ah lovely:clap:

You can’t beat an emphatic header. Game on

Alcantara gives Bayern the lead

Tiago puts bayan in front

Patrick Stewart is in attendance with a hot blonde and was delighted with the goal
