Thiagos always injured and as good as he was in Spain and Germany he's not been amazing here.
We’ve failed to win a game he hasn’t started this season, I think you’re underestimating his importance.
The rest I agree with but you're missing a very key point. That's three years worth of signings. That's not good enough and our squad is not in a good position for a reason.
Not missing anything, someone said we haven’t signed anyone of note, or anyone for that matter. What exactly did I miss in correcting him?
That's not good enough and our squad is not in a good position for a reason.
Yes, a mountain of injuries and Covid.
Do you think our squad is in a good position with age and form taken in to consideration? Can our subs push our starting eleven for places?
Think there’s a decent balance, we have experienced players and young players. Our form has nothing to do with age of the squad, our form is down to injuries and Covid, same as nearly every other team. Don’t know how many times I have to repeat that.
Yes the subs can. Before the injuries hit this season, it was anybody’s guess who was starting with Virgil in the league and then in Europe we are 100% and that’s with Virgil not playing every game.
People were calling for Kostas to start because of how he was playing compared to Robbo.
We had Elliott playing in the midfield ahead of the likes of Keita, with people having no idea who would play in midfield other than Fab.
It’s been anybody’s guess who would play out of Bobby and Jota.
We’ve had Kelleher come in for Ali a few times and do himself a lot of justice and play his part to a high standard.
We are in the semi final of the cup and with the likes of Taki and Origi playing so shows we have the depth to cover that less important competition.
Of course we need improving in areas, do I think Origi is good enough? No. Do I think Ox is good enough? No. But every team has areas they can improve, supporters will never be fully satisfied with the team they support, and that includes City, they’re fans are constantly bitching about the likes of Jesus.
The reality is, up until the last 3 games the title race was anyone’s guess and was separated by a point, we are 100% in the CL, semi final of the cup. But in all honesty we got screwed big time in the Spurs game, the Leicester game would’ve been 3 points if Salah put away that penalty, I’m confident of that and Chelsea was a crazy 5mins. But what people don’t take into account is in that time we’ve been massively hit with injuries and Covid. If people think our squad is nowhere near the level of being able to compete despite all of the above then give your head a wobble and don’t waste my time with blinkered and irrational views because up until the West Ham game we were what, 20 games unbeaten stretching back to last season and these views were strangely not apparent. And then on a pretty convincing 6 game winning run until the Spurs draw 3 games ago, to which the complaints soon vanished again.
