That’s 24. One of which we just signed and two are players that haven’t played a single second.
Reggie has barely featured even now when we are fucked. Gray and Bergvall ARE in the 25 for EL.

Flangeball.
What the hell is this? Everyone but the back 4 are in the middle of opposition's own half trying to press, including 3 CMs that somehow end up right next to each other. Impossible to tell where the defensive line is obviously, but for this to make any sense it has to be placed somewhere around the halfway line at least. Otherwise there must be a ridiculous amount of space between the front 6 and the back 4. We somewhat get an answer couple of seconds later;
Turns out defensive line is placed somewhere inside our own half, so there is indeed a ridiculous amount of space right in the middle of the pitch to run into. That's what Tielemans does. He ends up making this attempt;
17th minute of the match y'all, not 87th when all caution was understandably thrown to the wind chasing a match in desperate fashion. And anybody who watched the match yesterday knows this is not me blowing a cherrypicked freak accident out of proportion. Similar stuff kept happening again and again, that's how Kinsky ended up making all those saves.
If you think Romero-VdV coming back or a less congested schedule will fix these structural issues then go ahead. But don't expect many people to follow suit.
The question is whether the number of injuries is abnormal with Ange in the PL. Two season in a row hey? What if it happened next season (I’d happily wager it would). Still “abnormal”?
If that was a once off id say fair enough but its all game every game. I was derided by a certain individual when i mentioned i was an amateur coach. Told that i hadnt a clue what i was talking about at this level. That i was giving it the big one that i knew everything.

Even an amateur coach would not do whats shown above. Mental stuff.
That said individual hasnt been seen since yesterday. Will come back on in a day or 2 spouting nonsence
See above report. The way we play in contributing to it. Plus they mightnt be training intensely now but extra load in training early in season can contribute
He doesn’t actually defend the players tho. Which is why they are downing tools
Freezing players out given the circumstances is beyond crazy. Reggie limited but had passable loans at 2 clubs last season, not ideal but he could have played in a few games. Spence was on that list until he had no choice, Lankshear could have played more minutes. Ajayi scored a worldie from the bench and hasnt had 1 minute since.
Thats what i find hilarious. We played once a week last year, had tons of injuries. Was that not the time to reassess?? Its a fucking shambles. To say it has nothing to do with the way we play is ridiculous
So can a culture of losing and excuses led by the Head Coach
He 'indirectly' sacked the medical department I would have guessed, for not recovering his players soon enough. So it shouldn't be reactionary to do the same to him. He has been given time IMO.. The last two Cup games should be his remaining remit and he lost both.
Its not about rotating now. It was about rotating early in season when we had the squad to do it
You could be Ange’’s speechwriter. But you need to add a few concrete chat crap jokes and “mates”
the fans are sick of fucking excuses. Even with our full squad the gaps are going to be there because of the way we play. Simple enough. Plus injuries are 80% down to Ange and the way we play.
You joined this forum when ange joined and will be gone when he is so dont be telling us what way we should be feeling and that we have agendas
This 100%. Imagine Ange costing you your job, saying you are not good enough at your job.
Id be fucking livid looking at the shambles on the pitch every week
You could pick pretty much any game this season and its the same - the thing is if we are seeing this, then teams who spend all week preparing to play us also see this and then as they have a proper manager they work out how to exploit our frailties!

We lost to Leicester at home after being 1 up at half time . We had a better team but he sets us up to be beaten ( the Porro halfway up the pitch goal ) . How he wasn’t sacked after that I will never know .
Everton and Leicester should have been the end of his 9 lives but oh no got to give him the cups. Worked a treat that.
I’m sorry was it brand new information that we might play 69 games this season?
We played 41 last year and were equally shit.
Ange has only been able to field his top defence pairing about 20 odd times or whatever. He’s lost about half of them. So your argument doesn’t really hold much weight. He loses half his games regardless of personal. Because the tactics are shit.
