no. just no. Can we just start not having tweets anymore until there is a nice one?

He was only on for minutes. Where is the warm up, what are the coaches doing? If we wasn't fit as was rumoured why is he passed fit for coming on, and if it was related someone needs firing (out of a cannon, preferably).

What's that, 8 injuries now? Mental, especially so early in the season when we aren't a high intensity running team.

In the words of 50 cent, when it rains it pours.

Reguillon is now first choice.

I think it's clear last season is having an impact.

We've been Klopp'd without getting the success associated with burning out the squad.

Somewhere in your mind, touching a nerve
Probably our pre season preparation also coming to bite us. My theory, which is based on nothing, is that our pre season fitness plan was underwhelming and at a low intensity and as such as soon as the proper high intensity games started our players begin dropping like flies.

Starting to think we should’ve rested during pre-season a little bit more than not at all

Pretty sure we have a full Injured XI.

Heaton
AWB - Varane - Shaw - Malacia
Amrabat - Mainoo
Antony - Mount - Sancho
Amad
Not a bad team really.

I was thinking it could be the other way round. Maybe the intensity was too high for too long and it's not really a fitness issue but a fatigue issue, which is different. But like yours, mine is just a theory based on nothing and I'm certainly not arguing you are wrong, I'm just offering up what I think without any evidence to back it up.

No need to panic, remember that Ole prepared us for this kind of situation :smirk:

About 350m-worth, nice.

Definitely something wrong with the training regime.

Questions needs to be asked about the managers training methods/preparation to have this many injuries so early on in the season.

This didn’t happen last year.
It’s the amount of games we’re forced to play. Every team has players dropping like flies, we just have more than most at this stage

Has there even been a more emotionally draining first month of the season?

I mean this is just getting ridiculous now

We had a lot of games. The manager also overplayed the core squad

Well that and ETHs refusal to rotate even in dead rubber games last season. Bound to come and bite him in the ass.

Brighton sold their best players over the summer and then rested some normal starters and had others like Ferguson out injured.

That's a better side than our current best XI.

If you are including the bloated number for preseason. He isn't an international. The number of league games and internationals is the same for all the top sides, but think pre-season was something else.

At least Mount and Varane should be back soon enough. As soon as Bayern maybe.
