quite happy about this in a way.
time for our youth to step up. no excuses. push comes to shove, when your country... i mean team needs you. time to lace those boots and hit the ground running.
Its obvious Silva is a passenger at present with his ankle and a minor knock will set it off again.
VK is a major risk to play from the outset especially against a side like Spurs full of pace and energy.
Losing Sagna now for three weeks it appears now probably tips us over the edge as he has been one of our few who has been fairly consistent.
As for Delph he has become another sicknote but given we have two midfielders out long term and Navas out for probably another three weeks at least his injury couldn't have come at a worse time with YAYA counting down the days to Pep's arrival.
You want to be positive but we have at least one new injury per game and losing two in training says we need a major look at how we go about our business and get much better at it.
This season has become a farce on the injury front.
Sagna is a much bigger miss than Delph in my opinion. Fernando has done well when he's come in lately and Fernandinho will come good again after a dreadful game against Leicester.
The injuries have in my opinion restricted us more than anything else this season (and I'm not fan of Pellers). It's been a real shitter but I honestly think if we can keep Kompany and Aguero fit for 10 out of the last 13 games then we'll win the league.
Optimistic? Yes, very. But I'm not blagging you, I honestly think we will do it.
PELLEGRINI: “It’s not a decisive game but a very important game - after we play for another 36 points.” #cityvspurs #mcfc
He'll still be saying this when there are no games left lol
