They did well considering their total cost was just 3.5m! Think that last sentence doesn't read right - it's the use of "considering". Think it should state "They did well. Their total cost was just 3.5m!" And yes they did play well. Edited November 10, 2020 by Bredbury Blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Why smaller clubs will not play ball on substitutions Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola wanted the freedom to make 10 substitutions when their teams played on Sunday. They could have made six. They actually made three, Klopp two, Guardiola one. So that’s not the fault of Richard Masters or the Premier League. Both managers were scathing about the strain this truncated season is placing on their players and they undoubtedly have a point. Equally, Klopp gave the game away when he came up with his compromise. 'If the 14 teams say they don’t want it, at least let us sub five times when the top six play each other,’ he said. And there it is: them and us, six versus 14. That’s why they can’t get anything through. An elite cabal of Premier League clubs began having their own meetings, to advance their own agendas, and alienated the rest. Now even reasonable requests are met with suspicion and resistance. Klopp talking arrogant privileged nonsense. Big 6 should play by the rules of the PL or move on. (Martin Samuels talking sense) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilai Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 No excuses for Pep only using one, but it is sensible to hold one sub back in case of an injury or even a GK sending off late in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep there was no excuse for Pep not bringing on a 2nd sub. It was crying out for Foden to come on, he got ready but then was told to sit down - chance wasted there.

3 minus 2 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Apparently he went down when making a pass unchallenged.. Southgate said it looked bad.. not often a manager comes out and says it's bad straight away, norm it's 'lets wait for it to settle down and wait for the scans' Sounds like an op and a 6 monther..

That would explain his level of pain. Patella tendon tears are supposed to be more painful than ACL tears, which is saying something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had an op on his tendon today. No additional ligament damage. Could be back before the end of the season.
