I think there may be another reason for the “injuries“ - reasons driven by the club hierarchy.
The league position is irrelevant to the rags now. They don’t want to finish in 7th place & get into the conference league.
They NEED to win the FA Cup in order to get into the Europa league - this is so necessary for them. Forget beating Arsenal- they don’t want to help us anyway - and ETH is a dead man walking so winning that game won’t save him.
They‘re saving everyone for the cup final.

I have heard similar.
It's most peculiar how their best players have all succumbed to injury at the same time?
And tben I heard the story that they have all gone for high altitude training somewhere
If true, this training will change the players' blood composition and increase their stamina.
A form of cheating or am I being unduly sceptical?

More conspiratorial than sceptical, I’d say.

The Dave Brailsford effect? Marginal gains.

It’s a bit late to improve their stamina and fitness with three games left. Can’t make a silk purse out of a pigs ear or polish a turd. They are shit footballers who are badly coached

Ahaha if they think the best way to beat a City side is by not having their best players play football for a month while half their first first team gets pumped by Palace then bring on the final.

He didn't agree with the goal being disallowed, did he!

To be fair I am loathed to agree with him but that goal never should have been disallowed. The protection given to keepers this weekend has been ridiculous (as it was to Alisson when we played the red scouse cunts)
 
5Live last night, 90 minutes ‘special’; United at the Crossroads.

Very amusing listening to Andy Mitten constantly name-dropping for validation and boring-on about the different countries in the world he has ‘worked’ in!

And Worzel! ‘Walk to the right solution, not run to the wrong solution’. Yeah, ok. He’s got all the catch phrases but he’s already talking about three seasons and 6 transfer windows. Can’t see the fans being that patient.

It was atrocious listening & far from objective.

Amazing when talking of Omar & Wilcox they never mentioned they'd never worked at that level before. How the fuck did they not mention they’ve come runners up many times but couldn’t admit City were just better so gambled and turned into shit. It’s as much the fans fault as the Glazers.

Don’t get me started on the fans from around the world supporting them due to winning the treble & the penny still didn’t drop….

Dunno about this, but they can't use them as an excuse. Teams get injuries, but when a club gets an unusual amount it's because of something they're doing.

Either the training, preparation, facilities, warmups, warmdowns.... Something is wrong and causing the problems, and it's entirely their own doing.

A choice of making out a slight injury is worse than it is or playing in their starting 11, especially in that midfield that has been constantly over-run all season
