No, it is pretty provable.

Data is there. For all the losses we were 3 points of 3rd after the City match - where we lost Romero and Vicario and then our PPG fell off a cliff. Like sheer fall into the abyss. The next game we played was against Fulahm, Forster in goal, Davies and Dragusin at CB - no Solanke even on the bench.... Then Bournmouth and no Dragusin - Davies and Gray at CB and Davies gets injured....

Forster was not a disaster when it came to shot stopping, but in terms of building up play from the back, breaking the press, passing to players in a way that didn't leave them in trouble and with more work to do than was necessary, he is chalk and cheese to even Vicario, let alone the kind of performance Kinsky put in vs Liverpool.

Either way, like I said, the data is there. And more data is there to show how difficult it is for anyone to beat the likes of Fulham, Bournemouth etc.... Not excusing the results just saying they categorically show a huge dip in points collected since the injuries happened.

Data?

Explain to me how you prove an injury crisis is qualitatively worse than another? From what I can see there are too many variables to control to be able to make this sort of a determination. I'm interested to hear what you have to say about it though- genuinely interested if you can make a truly logical, persuasive, "CAST IRON PROVABLE" PROOF of this.

Just because we may have a higher number of injuries on paper at a certain point compared to last season, it still DOES NOT prove that a particular injury crisis is "worse"- that's not how logic and math work. You could maybe make a quantative based argument, BUT NOT a qualitative one. And besides, it seems like you don't agree Ange's management has had a hand creating the injuries and out-of-form players he's been complaining about. As you seem to pretty much give him every possible excuse, including this one, I don't really think there is much to discuss between us- you seem very set in your views.
