Injuries - 2023/24 | Ederson cleared to return to training (p 146)

Kovacic, Grealish and Stones not training today according to SSN

Reckon it will be a season of niggles after going all the way in 3 comps last year.
 
It always makes me laugh when people say 3 games a week. When did players ever play three games a week other than in end of season catch ups.
So City play Red Star Tuesday, Forest on the Sat and Newcastle on the Weds. Unless you’re a pedant, that’s broadly 3 games in a week
 
Sunday - Wednesday - Saturday. Pedantic, but true.
But it’s not Sunday-Wednesday-Saturday-Sunday-Wednesday-Saturday-Sunday-Wednesday-Saturday-Sunday-Wednesday-Saturday-Sunday… that would be three games a week over a month.

If it’s ever Sunday-Wednesday-Saturday, it’s only ever one game the following week in the midweek (if there even is one) because the following Saturday is 8 days after. So over the course of a month, it’s only ever Weekend-midweek-weekend-midweek-weekend-midweek-weekend-midweek.

Damn, Stones should have returned long ago but he is on injury mode again. Let's hope next week will start playing normally again and injury free for many many months.
Grealish off too and Kovacic.... damn tough times, but thankfully with a win on weekend we are fine and all these 3 will return next week!

Easy to resolve this.
There are some times, were in a 7 days time(a week) we play 3 games. E.g Sunday, Wednesday, Saturday.
But on AVERAGE, under 8 months time, we(as also everyone) play 2 games a week.

I did not realise it but when we signed him someone on here said Kovacic tends to miss a lot of games with niggly injuries and we know all about JS. But Boulders tends to fit back into things quickly and hopefully will be back when more difficult fixtures arise in October and November. I'd say Jack is having a bit of a rest.

Reminds me of that Arsenal fans discussion on twitter.
"He's 29"
"Not until october"
"He's nearer 29 than 28"
" but until he's 29, he's 28"
"He's in his 29th year"
"But his age is 28"
"And 11 months"
"But still 28 until he turns 29"

Or words to that effect :)
