Raheem looks shattered. Today he had three great chances to run into the box at pace but chose to pass the ball sideways. He needs a break from football. This crazy season is killing our players. Some of them will never recover. I wonder how many games he has played in the last three seasons for City and England. He and Bernardo have been driven into the ground with KDB not far behind. It is painful to watch.

Probably less than soon to be 36 years old Ronaldo and Messi. The bloke upfront for Bayern is about 33 and plays every week too.

Bernardo has had plenty of time not playing since football resumed

Playing in Italy for Juventus or in Germany for Bayern is like a practice session most of the time. You can't compare the intensity of the PL with these countries. Lots of players get burned out in England and our clubs have a pretty crap record in the CL for the same reasons. It is not a level playing field compared to other countries.

True but he has never looked the same since his five-trophy winning season for City and Portugal in 2018/19. He has never been a lazy player. He's a workhorse but he still looks shattered to me. What else could be the problem? He is a fantastic technical player.
 
Another player who's confidence is at rock bottom , he scores goals that are put on a plate for him but he contibutes nothing else , he is playing exactly like he did when Pellegrini was manager , takes the easy option every time , can't believe we have so many of our big players so out of form , when Gundogan is winning MOTM plaudits for fun , we are struggling.

Good job he didn't rest him today though eh?!

Pep himself has disputed this and I believe he has a point, after all he's done the English,German and Spanish gigs so he's got a valid opinion.

This is going to sound harsh but Sterling has been shit, it's like he purpously runs balls into areas and then loses the ball, he refuses to shoot when presented with a chance.

He's that bad at the minute I'd sell him in the Jan window, and believe me I have always supported him through thick and thin on here.

Juventus have won nine titles in a row and Bayern eight in a row. In Spain it's a bit better with 15 out of the last 16 titles won by Barca or Real. Whatever Pep says the facts speak for themselves. It is a stroll for Bayern, Juventus, Barca and Real (perhaps not this season) in domestic football. These clubs save their energy for the CL and they get winter breaks. Burn-out is only a problem in England and always has been. That's why English teams have won so few Champions Leagues. That said if we get a good price I would sell Sterling because he has been brilliant in the past but won't get any better in the future.
