“Ederson, Nathan Ake, Sergio Gomez, Rodri, and Erling Haaland were all back in ManCity training today after respective injury/fitness issues.”
Did anyone not see this coming? Seems it’s a regular occurrence where City players will say they are “injured” to miraculously recover in a week after getting to fly back early.
Just play them at the end of the season in like a month block and push all the games up to finish sooner
You’d disadvantage smaller nations if their star player was injured for the block, and also not all the European leagues have the same August/September to May/June running window so again the smaller countries get screwed.
Smaller? Even Spain Italy germany struggle with injuries in certain positions. Only France and England can just call up replacements of similar quality across the board.
