ETH shouting out his lungs about injuries while Howe and Klopp just got on with the job. You'd have us top of the table and double the next team with how the Pep Guardiola is my idol and his buddies have attributed everything to injuries and nothing to do with tactics and set up
Premier League Gameweek 37

Timber hasn't, which meant our LB position we have had to play two centre backs in Kwior and Tomiyasu all season. Its a crucial area of the pitch. But otherwise we have been fortunate which is why I feel this was our best chance to win something.
A lot of our midfield and attack picks up niggles. So do our fullbacks. It's really only our CBs and Pickford which are always available which is why we have had such a strong defensive record TBF.
We had/have 69 injuries
Still not top 3 of that table, whats your point? The problem is how we get dominated by even relegation fodders
Oasis cnut in the stands.
4 in a row for 115 cheating cnuts Fc would be rather shit
Do they not just mean that generally, teams usually have a few injuries at this stage of the season? Not specifically City.
Nice of Fulham to actually press City, not let them endlessly pass it around and then when the 5 on 4 break is on, they pull it back. Besides the obvious level in class, all these teams just play like total cowards against City. You need to have a go at them.
Myko missed the start of the season but from September-April he has been out there every week. Calvert Lewin and McNeill also missed August but again been available pretty much every week since.
I was saying it as a complement given the feeling Dyche is old school and he has you running with wheels on their backs in training but clearly whatever method is used in training is working with the comparatively few serious injuries you're picking up.
Will certainly need that and luck next season given the squad will probably be reduced in size further given the FFP requirements.
Yeah Timber was very unfortunate but at least with any serious injury in the August there is a chance to still use transfer market to get in cover if the club desires.
In any case Zinchenko was still seen as the main LB then given his quality and experience, only in recent times he's fallen out of favour and I assume will be moved on in the summer.
City need that second goal because I think Fulham will score here.
Never mind.
With 115 charges they are winning trophies. FA should have never allow this.
Erling Nunez
Haaland really should have made that game over, Heskey like finish.
Noel Gallagher is such an ugly tosser with a sh*t haircut.
If you think there is a god just think about the fact that the cheating cnuts at City are strolling towards their fourth consecutive PL title.
Zinchenko was always a**. I noticed very early on that he never passed the ball to Havertz, while he was still in left midfield. Havertz´s performances there started to pick up, when Kiwior replaced Zinchenko. Then Havertz was moved up top. Either Zinchenko was just being bad at his job or he was still mad about that CL final in Porto and tried to sabotage Havertz.
At the end of the season they'll deduct 10 points and Liverpool will win the league]
Zzzzzz remember those days when there was actually jeopardy in a title run in. This is just so functional and robotic there is no excitement
At least the Scousers are officially out of it now. Crumbs of comfort.
The most dullest, tedious team to watch. I don't think any neutrals sit down to watch 115 games knowing the result in 95% of their games before a ball is kicked!
It really makes a mockery of football. Not sure why other clubs seem to be happy with nobody saying anything about it either. Unless the cease and desists have been issued to the 19 other teams that are being cheated by them because let’s face it, without the money they’d be scrapping down with forest and Luton.
They have made this league so boring now
Noel Gallagher trying to add a bit of glamour to the City crowd.
Not even crossed my mind that he could be costing City anything for been there.

Threatened by the Abu Dhabi hierarchy probably
Back to supporting City again now after those years where he followed Arsenal and Celtic then
Hahaaland
City winning titles. The norm until Pep leaves.

Either way, at some point – be it on Tuesday or the following Sunday – the strong likelihood is that City will be toasting another title, a sixth title in seven seasons, the sort of dynastic dominance English football fans have always liked to deride in other countries. Perhaps this is the true farmers’ league now: a league that was bought up and cultivated, and is now being harvested at leisure.
The outcome of the Premier League’s 115 charges against City remains some distant paradoxical point on the horizon: never actually getting closer, however much time passes. And in any case, the ultimate innocence or guilt of City is only really of tangential relevance here. The broader picture is that dominance on this scale, whether earned legally or illegally, whether earned through the patronage of a state or a mastery of regulatory fine print, comes with a cost to the spectacle as a whole.
Perhaps then the bewilderment about the title race is the sort that becomes inevitable when a league begins to revolve so thoroughly around one club. This is City’s universe now, and even when you push at the walls it is never entirely clear how much of it is real and how much projection.

Did Palinha get any of that ball?
I didn't take it as a dig. I was just informing you that we have had our fair share of niggles too this year. We have an extremely small squad and it may even get smaller next season so it will only take a portion of bad luck to see us in real trouble.
Offside
Always impressed with Pahlinha when I watch Fulham...
How's that considered onside? Akanji, who actually touches it.... is off?
Sorry my bad
Sorry my bad
Surely that should be ruled out
Akanji off there I think. Will be ruled out.
I can't stand their faces
