That table can be misguiding.

The drop off in quality when we get a key injury isn't the same as someone like Chaudaray for Leicester or Garner for Everton gets injured.

Not bothered aabout them was thinking more arsenal and liverpool teams we’re competing with.

Right come on you blue bastards time to bounce some Czech’s

Into them boys!

Look, I most emphatically am not scaremongering, but there's a rumour on this side of the water that there's a new strain of covid in the offing. I myself have been pushed to get a jab (not sure if I will, for the time being). Not that you'd expect people of Jack and Jérémy's age to get anything. Any such news on the UK side of the Channel?

Didn't someone say that Foden had Covid a few weeks ago? So it could be going through the squad.

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

Jack just can’t string 5 games together. It’s a real shame. He looked sharp on Sunday too.

There’s loads of people going down with Covid but most people just ignore it and get on with their lives. I had my Covid shot on Monday so fingers crossed I won’t get it again

So bad that I had to turn it over to the One Show!

That is desperation :-)

I’ve had Covid for the last 3 weeks, still can’t shake off the bloody cough.

 

[MichaelFrontzeck'sBathroom]

Anyone else cant get hyped for this bullshit league ? Just extra games vs Dross

feels very europa league like they’ve fucked it up big time

 

[cleavers]

I’m surprised Gundy playing again thought he needed a rest

He's just had 2 weeks rest.

 

[Blu1]

He's just had 2 weeks rest.

He looked shattered v wolves to me :-)

 

[GaudinoMotors]

First argument of the evening - Sparta fan in full colours in my seat.
Gotta hand it them - everywhere.

Oh lovely

I am still a bit stunned at the rate of first injuries we seem to pick up..and have been picking up over the last couple of seasons...is it the intense fixture list? How are we compared to other top end clubs in the Prem/ Europe?

 

[blue b4 the moon]

7 (seven) on the bench, if only we had the biggest squad in the world.

 

[cleavers]

He looked shattered v wolves to me :-)

He's looked like that since he returned for me.

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Look at that bench, not exactly confidence inspiring...and Jack and Doku now both out for the weekend. We seriously can't afford any more people out tonight. Get the game won nice and early & take some of the big guns off for safety.

 

[freshie]

Pep giving nothing away as usual :(

Tbh we have been pretty fortunate over last few seasons. Arsenal also missing several key players right now. Injuries just happen. Going with small squad would eventually bite city

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Five Prime Ministers since City last lost at home in the CL. Incredible, and not all for the correct reasons lol.

Where have you seen this mate?
