Mateus Fernandes Official

Solanke, Muani and I’m sure one or two others we bought recently had that same fitness track record before coming to us..

Especially Solanke, completed a whole season with Bournemouth without any problem at all before we signed him.

Gallagher had never missed a game with injury before joining us either apparently.

That is kind of crazy. His injury record is 5 days of illness in 2024 but never missed a game. Then 6 days of illness in 2026 and missed 1 game.

I suppose buying injury-free players is one way to fix our Medical Dept…

Playing once per week i.e. no Europe and being crap in the cups, gives the body far more time to recuperate between games, hence Solanke not being injured at Bournemouth.

Dammit, I've cursed us again haven't I?

only if we sell injured players

Yeboah meets Hoddle

The thing is, whether thats MK Dons in a friendly or City at home, that still would have went in.

It’s about how much space he would have, where the opponent have defenders potentially blocking, and the pressure of taking that chance on in a big match. But technically it was top tier, so I agree it would very likely still have been a goal. Incredible effort especially as the ball drops from such a height.

Sweet spaghetti monster, that was amazing technique

There was talk of Twitter last night that Fernandes had suffered an ACL injury. Thankfully Szyexcl posted to say that it’s not true. That would be a nightmare were it to happen. Hope he’s named in the squad today to dispel any remaining doubts.

The official word is that he'll be taking a breather for this one as he has been pushing hard in pre-season thus far.

On a related note, the absolute tossers who started posting injury news and what not can do one!

That would be a fudging brick show nightmare

Not in the squad today. Hopefully just resting as part of fitness schedule

 

[SirPercyHotspur]

Ally Gold did a bit on Mateus saying he was being rested for this one.

 

[Yiddo.1882]

I suspect today’s team has been selected with Saturday in mind.
