Kevin Mirallas reveals how a revolutionary treatment he underwent in Germany, based on calf's blood and cockerel's crest injections, seems to have cured his hamstring problems and saved his Everton career!
Everton winger Kevin Mirallas has revealed the revolutionary treatment that has got him off the sick list and back in David Moyes' team.

The £5.3million Toffees forward has been under the supervision of Dr Hans Muller-Wohlfhart — a German sports specialist nicknamed ‘Healing Hans' — in a bid to cure the hamstring problem that had put his Goodison career on hold.

Dr Muller-Wohlfahrt injects his ­patients with the extract from a ­cockerel's crest and has also used calves blood in his treatment of top athletes like Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt.

Mirallas got the recomendation from Belgian buddy Daniel van Buyten, the Bayern Munich defender. And he ­revealed: “I decided to turn to Hans after talking with my best mate in football, Daniel.

“If he's on the staff of Bayern Munich then he's obviously there for a reason. He's proved that he's a competent guy at what he does. He certainly did a good job for me. And so far so good. Things have gone well. It's worked for me. I just had this problem and as an option I decided to turn to him to try and cure it.

“We tried a certain method here at the club with the doctors and the physios and had a setback. “So I chatted to Daniel and he said: ‘Why don't you come and try here. He's very good. It might work out for you'. So I consulted with the club and with their blessing I travelled over to ­Germany. I went there with the club doctor and it was explained exactly what he was going to do.

“From the very first injection I started to feel a slight improvement in things. It was incredible.

“Let's hope the injuries are behind me now and that I can start to get a run of games together again.”

I still wonder how Mirallas managed to pass the medical while Leroy Fer did not...

And then of course Naismith who passes a medical after 20 blown cruciates and no knees!

Paul. Big difference. Naismith was free.

Would it have been cheaper for Mirallas to consult a witch doctor?

Interesting that calves blood is mentioned. The current scandal about widespread "drug" use in Australian sport centres around the use of peptides and calf blood (actovegin) to aid recovery and boost stamina. I believe Actovegin was placed on the IOC banned list when used by cyclists. Much hand wringing over cheating and the announcement of ethics committees being set up to combat illegal sports drugs in Australia. I wonder if the subsequent fallout will spread to England and footballers in particular

I think I'm in trouble with the mafia.
I woke up this morning and found a beef lasagne on my pillow.

I find that a KFC chicken bucket and a rare steak solve all of my problems... why not?
