And like lasagnegate, anyone who had the virus will rapidly run out of energy. I remember Jenas saying that he was finished in the second half.

It's not hard at all to pinpoint why the squad is so weak at all . It's clearly the "stewards", their bare minimum investment in the squad (esp wages) and their total lack of any drive to win. (And not those stewards in orange jackets that tell you sit down)
It's becoming clear that the Poch era was mostly a fluke of a crop of great players alongside an excellent manager, not the result of any grand strategy from ENIC.
They threw some shit against the wall and on that occasion it kind of stuck. By 2018 it was sliding down the wall.
Not to say that the medical and coaching staff aren't underperforming too, as they clearly are.

Newcastle were 12th at start of December, but are now fifth and last December lost six out of six but regrouped and finished seventh, are they a good example to your squad if you get players back, you can get going again?
I think if you look at that time last year, I actually spoke about it at the press conference. They had a ridiculous amount of injuries and I actually specifically mentioned Newcastle and how they have a ridiculous amount of injuries and it’s no wonder their form is suffering, but that’s a boring tale, mate. It doesn’t mean and like I said, people will be outside with pitch forks and looking for heads, so let’s not take that narrative.
But is that a good example?
I think so but it’s a boring stuff, mate and I’m a boring person, so I don’t think you’ll get much traction with that.
Indeed that is what he said. The stubborn, straight talking, objective bastard.
Fucking cheek of it giving Eddie Howe excuses like that.
That was a response that was as easy to predict as tomorrow's loss.
The only thing I am unsure of is whether we will also lose to Tamworth next weekend. It's all too possible
Of course it was. Because it was 100% factual.
Give me a ring Ange, I can see what is being done wrong.

One good thing if they are ill, they can’t train so they can’t get injured"
If my facts are predictable then that's praise, if anything.
Tell you what's really predictable, you blaming ethereal things like "something's not right", "Tottenham are cursed with weakness" rather than the actual people in charge.
We won't lose to the 5th division, part time binmen of Tamworth, don't be silly. Even Reguilon will be running rings round them.
Yeah but it was clearly the way we train that got them ill.
Dinosaur methods with contact in training. I wouldn't be surprised if Ange wasn't making them stand close to each other on purpose because he wants to get sacked for the pay off.
That's the only one I'm not sure about. The others feel more than likely. I'm still hoping we can surprise Liverpool, though. I'd like to win anything this year.
The very fact that some think we will lose to Tamworth is telling in itself as to our current situation. It’s crazy.
I've said it before and will say it again - there is no club I despise more in this life or the next. Chelsea can get in the fucking bin.
Hilariously it was the same excusesDeuterz was giving Newcastle last season too.
Awww Dudu is tagging me again, know I must have got to him.
We aren’t Newcastle. I don’t have Newcastle level expectations. Hilariously you obviously do.
Btw - Newcastle’s squad depth and their injury crisis last season were both worse than what we are currently experiencing. Think they had twice the total number of players out.
They had 20 first team players out. Fucking hell that must have been really rough given the squad limit is 25.
The very fact that Major Misanthrope Notabadsquad is predicting (I assume), along with other drama queens on TFC, that we will lose to Tamworth is situation normal.
I'm still watching every single one. The pressure of the job is visibly overwhelming him now. The laughter when there is any seems a nervous one rather than genuine. Not that it matters really.
With the best will in the world he's under an immense amount of pressure and showing it, unsurprisingly.
He - and the team - need a good win but it's hard to see where its coming from at the moment.
LOLHilariously it was the same excuses
The biter bit.
