Yeah sorry it was more a general question than directed at you.

Apologies, just massively frustrated

This season is beyond the pits.

I think I am less bothered who plays where as opposed to whoever takes to the pitch, playing close to their optimum.

Never aeen so many players so short of their best. Not a single player gives me confidence, so for me, the position that needs filling the most is competence.
 
I don't know why managers feel obliged to state which players are available for selection at their pre-match press conferences. Can they not just say ''you'll see the available squad when the team sheets are publicised on matchday''? Because stating a player is available who is usually part of the starting line;up. is pretty much giving out a member of the matchday squad before the team sheets are required to be submitted.
Probably pushed to do so by the betting industry
 


We're down.

How do we get so many long term injuries. Its freak stuff.

Currently at Woolwich they've just got Merino who's out long term and could miss rest of season. Everyone else is fine and if they've injuries then they only ever miss 3/4 weeks max.

This is never the case with us. Seem to always have atleast 5 or 6 lads sidelined for most the season.

Maddison and Kulusevski have missed the entire season. Kudus, Odobert, Solanke and Dragusin have missed most the season. Bentancur been missing around 4 months not too. Thats not to mention the likes of Udogie, Bergvall, Bentancur and Richarlison who've missed alot of games too.

Something is broken. 3 seasons in a row where we've had the worst injury crisis in the entire league and it seems to just keep getting worse. This season is a new low for the long term ones anyway!
 
So De Zerbi will need to consider some options, which he is probably doing anyway.

I think the seriousness of the injuries we suffer is freakish, but that analysis is for tomorrow.

Just need to be ready on Sunday, and we have enough in our squad to be able to find a way.

Time to start delivering.
 
Yep.

Massive club not wanting to flex its muscles.

Staggering incompetence, but I didn't see survival being dependent on Kudus returning, so it's frustrating but should not signal the white flag being shown.
It's not even about flexing muslces.

It's about signing basic, available players like Oscar Bobb and Ademola Lookman because our squad is a fucking mess and was injury ridden.

Make those 2 signings and we're nowhere near the relegation zone rn, not because they're amazing, but because they're actual wingers.
