“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.

    Becoming a pattern that you can’t get more than a few sentences into a conversation about City before one of the people exposes that they don’t know what they’re talking about.

    Ederson - was clearly injured against Chelsea, and why send him across the world to recover when he’s not going to play for Brazil anyway? Ake and Gomez - injured long before the international break so not relevant at all Haaland - played in the first game and clearly did something to his ankle, only missed the second because it was meaningless and you’d be crazy to risk a player with a knock in a dead rubber (this is true of all teams and managers and always has been) Rodri - played pretty much the full game against Georgia, coming off with less than 10 mins to go. His injury concern happened after that game and the post is only to reassure City fans that he’s OK.
