PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[marco]

Maybe the players have been told that things went well for us at the hearing and because of that, there's no siege mentality anymore - a siege mentality that drove us all the way to the treble in the wake of the charges being announced - and because of that our form has gone to shit ;)

it could be multiple things mate, could be a few players know they will be departing end of season so to an extent have downed tools

Thats ridiculous and misses the point. All injuries are not equal, Saka having his 19th "knock" of the season and limping off is not equal to every defender at this football club being either injured or unfit, missing Rodri and KDB for almost the entire season so far.

Don't patronise me with the "oh well all teams get injuries". Yeah they do. But nothing like the scale of what we've dealt with this season. In our most important game of the season, our midfield was a geriatric backup player and a teenage right back while the person playing at right back was literally injured and hadn't trained for two weeks and we had one fit player in our back six outside the keeper.

Exactly

All clubs suffer injuries and whilst you clearly have clearly missed players like Rodri this table points to the fact that the number of incidents suffered by you this season isn’t close to the worse

Found this hilarious. Great example of use & abuse of statistics. No indication on the table of how long the injury is for. Pretty immature & naive post really

I would doubt that your management will be giving too much away to the players but the fact is that the IC despite rumours to the contrary have now heard the evidence brings a different perspective.
Hey all this is speculation but there is something significantly impacting and sorry I don’t think it is coincidence that your current poor run of form broadly aligned with the commission sitting

Or maybe it's to do with having almost all our 1st choice defence and midfield missing for a large chunk of the games we have played.
Maybe it's to do with a few players being out of form and that aligned to the players missing makes the problem much worse.
Maybe you should actually think for yourself instead of reading the shite that is published in the redtop news and social media ..just a thought.

That’s a fucking wank out of context bullshit list.

It doesn’t take into account that players are playing injured so we can field a team, it doesn’t take into account Rodri. Kovacic, Akanji, Stones as 4 players who could play the 6 injured. I could go on.

Strangely Saliba and Gabriel always pick up injuries in games where Arsenal are winning with 15 minutes remaining.
Then after two minutes treatment they go down again (coincidentally always when Arsenal are in possession)

No wonder they're top of this list

Think personal pride should drive someone on but the look gundogan gave walker said enough

 

[hello]

But it depends where the injuries occur not the number
Best player in the world Rodri injured his replacement Kovacic injured
Could Liverpool still win without Salah VVD and TAA ?
Well we’ve had Stones KDB and Rodri out mostly for all the season
If you watched last night we were arguably not that bad
Haaland scores the 1 v 1 we win that game
The problem is injuries loss of form and confidence and a little bit of bad luck

The luck thing at both ends can't be helping confidence, every block going to safety, a header straight at keeper bounces over line, the 2nd goal total miss kick off the shin, had he connected as intended its going well wide etc.

Perhaps being an honest family man who is loyal to his own wife, is reflected onto a 'man' with the morals of an alley-cat who somehow is STILL our Captain?
