Must be living in an alternate universe.
I don't really know how much of that is down to Maresca, who is certainly spreading the minutes accordingly well and/or perhaps a combination of that and the new medical department.
The out of possession pressing is definitely less intensive than it was last season (there's been a dramatic drop-off on that aspect which leads me to believe it is by design), may or may not contribute to good injury record thus far.
If it's the former then it's a damning indictment on the previous manager.

Defo, Poch prior to his Chelsea days did have concerns raised that his training regime were responsible for an increase of injury blight at the previous clubs he managed, i think Tottenham was particularly affected.

We had the worst injury record in the league the two years prior to Pochettino as well. Luck (or lack of) has a lot to do with this, United did no intensive pressing last year & they couldn't field their best back 4 all season.
Injuries in high volume are just going to be the norm for everyone now, there's too much demand on players that's only going to keep increasing. We're getting lucky now but it won't last.
