Inside Injury Rehab in Football: Dave Fevre on Scans, Setbacks and Getting Players Back

In part two of this special with Dave Fevre, the conversation turns to the work fans rarely see: what really happens when a player goes down injured, how decisions are made in those first critical moments, and what the rehab process actually looks like behind the scenes.
Drawing on decades of experience across the professional game, Dave explains the pressure of pitch-side assessments, why staying calm matters most, and how quickly a “simple” injury can become something far more serious. He also shares why he still believes in clinical judgement over over-reliance on scans, the dangers of treating the MRI instead of the player, and how lifestyle, stress and even alcohol can impact recovery.
From Roy Keane’s rehab mentality to working with top-level professionals like Thiago Silva and Mateo Kovacic, this episode is packed with stories, insight and hard-earned lessons from one of football’s most experienced physios.
A fascinating look at the balance between science, instinct, psychology and trust — and why getting a player back on the pitch is about far more than just healing the injury.
