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

So what we know now, among other things, from what he himself has said, is that he already had the hamstring injury, and was playing in pain, when he played the Arsenal match at the Etihad. I was there for that one. When I think about how he played that night, and how that match completely knocked the stuffing out of Arsenal, I'm in awe.
I don't forget Aymeric, also playing in pain, at the end of the 2021-22 season. We were down to the bare bones at the back.
Along with Zab, Kev is The (Second) Fucking Man…
 
On reflection it means that Foden and Grealish have to kick on this season. They’ve both contributed to our recent success but if they can reach another level consistently ala KDB now is the time.
 
Potentially disastrous. Not only lose our best player and the best midfielder in the PL for up to half the season.. it also reduces Haalands effectiveness as he sometimes looks a bit lost when kev ain’t there
 
If he's going to be out for months they might aswell put a new hamstring in.
If they just treat the injury until its heeled it'll probably go again
 
It's a blow sure but Kev won't last forever. Time for others to step up. There were times last season when he didn't play and we had a midfield of Rodri, Gundogan(Kovacic), Bernardo, and there are Foden, Grealish, Palmer, who have experience. Macatee and Doyle less so but there are opportunities now so grab the chance if you can lads. City will probably bring another one in as Mahrez left also so to be 2 down on numbers from last season is probably not ideal for a smallish squad. Get well soon Kev. 10 goals and 31 assists from last season will not be easy to replicate. Alvarez may drop in deep too but let's see how tomorrow goes first. There is still 6 weeks of the window left so no point in panicking, flapping or wetting ourselves over something out of our control. Keep the faith, up the blues.
 
truth bombs but McAtee, Palmer, Doyle are not champions league level. just because they have manc accents doesnt change that. dont mind rolling them out in the league cup to sell on but they aint good enough for city

we now desperately need a right winger as bernardo will have to play midfield.
