Loads of people overreacting about Leny Yoro's injury, however this got me thinking. Whenever a team gets injuries in pre-season, or are hit with an injury crisis during the actual season we often hear this line repeated over and over again: 'Travelling causes players to get injured'. Usually that's then followed up with something about a pre-season tour to America/Thailand or wherever, but can someone please explain it to me?
Any Premier League player who takes part in one of these 'gruelling' pre season tours, plays the same amount of games that they would if the pre season tour took place in Wales or Scotland. Furthermore all of them are taken to these tours via air in first class seats, effectively beds to lie in unlike the poor people, as well as then staying in the best hotels and more.
So how exactly does it mean a player is more susceptible to get injured?
Big time myth to me.

OP, preseason tours in America are particularly problematic, because players are not used to playing on artificial turfs.
