From a reddit thread about performance enhancing drugs in football.
They must have put the wrong stuff in Haji’s then going by the last few games!
Exactly. I can't find any reference to it on the web. In fact I feel a fool for looking
Got mixed up with MvEs stash.
There was talk about this - alot of players in La Liga have armbandages (lemar etc) but when they play for spain they dont have them on....and it'll be literally night and day, barca game theyre on, international duty off, and first barca game back its back on again...
The general tenor of the thread was “everyone does it and no one will say anything cos it’ll ruin the sport”
Although Wright had a bandage on against Stoke, Wrexham and Sheff united.
Unless the theory is that they wear the bandage every week but don't always have the patches on underneath.
BTA wears one as well.
However, surely if it was the case then refs would be doing checks?

I think they just soak the bandage in Red Bull and suck it out of the fabric during the game.
its more like a patch on the skin, and bandage just covers it up, slow release med stuff, endurance, i dont know, but theres been alot of talk about itPerformance enhancing bandages? Heard it all now.
So how do they work in respect of getting chances or a shot/header on target rather than off target?
When using illegal performance enhancing drugs. The best thing to do is it have them on you wrist in a big white bandage so everyone can see your using them. Or maybe thats the idea
Its all in plan site

He needed it in the right arm, not the left, in order for it to work, but the medics who taped it up for him, only heard "put it in the Wright arm" and went for the left, thinking it didn't matter which one.
It's going to be something ridiculous boring isn't it. Something like those trackers players wear but they don't like to wear the bra so they strap it to their wrist instead and bandage over it, or it's easier to analyse player movements post match etc.
`Yeah wonder if it's those Whoop trackers. As dont you have to cover jewellery when playing. So could just be an over top way to cover it
Bandages containing illegal performance enhancing drugs. What a ludicrous story, absolute bollocks!!
Anyone know where I can get one ... ?

If they're not related to injury, it will be some sort of mumbo jumbo that people have started to believe makes the body function more efficiently in some way. A bit like those nasal strips that athletes wore in the 90s that were complete hokum.
Stimulating acupuncture sites or some such.
The idea that it might allow performance enhancing drugs to be administered in an undetectable way is laughable. If the body is metabolising a banned substance, then it will be detectable in tests.

Why do footballers tape up their wrists?
Our Ask Me Anything team explains why footballers use tape to wrap their wrists.

No. Players use them as a support for slide tackles on their supporting arm Its been around for ages. Some players like Yamal use it as as "fashion" mind
It's clearly a push back by 'big shinpad' after Grealish etc. caused them stunning losses by bringing no shin protection into fashion. I reckon Sondico has secretly invested billions in 3M.
Used to get the piss taken out of me for wearing sondico shin pads back in the day. Never had a shattered shin though
Gus has kebab flavour
I thought that doping was common knowledge, for all the teams that have the resources to anyway.
Look at the amount of players diagnosed asthmatic, it’s way higher than society as a whole and it’s some of the fittest athletes going. No way they got this far with asthma. They’ve got the diagnosis to take performance enhancers.
No way do they do it for other sports but then football, the biggest cash sport in the world, goes completely clean.
