    So much so that you still haven’t posted anything to back up what you’re saying.

    Typical Chaos. Make wild claim. Then proceed to desperately move goalposts when picked up on it whilst congratulating himself and patting himself on the back.

    Seriously embarrassing. Seriously sad.

    When you’ve finished tap dancing try responding to my points. If you don’t then we all know why.

    You just keep proving me right.

    You can't blame the manager for injury problems in previous seasons and then the doctors for Howe.

    Although you did expect Bruce to finish top half aswel, so it's pretty obvious you've set different standards on absolutely everything.

    So are we all on the same page that Howe rushes players back to the first 11 to save his own bacon at the expense of the player.

    Is this what we are saying.

    On a side note. Arsenal heavily linked with a 100m deal for Isak. @Roland Deschain you might **** your knickers here.

    He's surely got to get the all clear from the medical team? The handling of Wilson's injury history pre us worries me however.

    Also know it was reported that Bruno, Pope, Longstaff, Botman and Burn have all played or been playing through injuries and in some cases putting off surgery to the close season.

    I’ve never heard a list like that where players are playing through injuries.

    Do we think other clubs do this?

    This seasons Injuries have been monumental and I’ve never seen an injury season like it.

    So who is to blame. This isn’t just bad luck.

    Bruno came back too soon last year and put off surgery till the summer, Pope played with a broken finger during same period and delayed surgery till the summer, Longstaff has been receiving injections suggesting something needs done and Botman has been clearly not himself. In addition to that we had Murpgy get chucked on 2 weeks after dislocating his shoulder earlier in the season.

    Surely this is a medical team thing though?

    These days it logically has to be a medical clearance before a player is played. If EH plays them against medical advice and player is crocked for good then
    1. Player could sue the Club for breach of duty of care. These days that’s potentially millions on millions.
    2. Insurers would void policy covering club against being sued and loss of value of player. Again, potentially many millions of pounds.

    Can’t see EH would do that nor would I expect Club to sanction or condone it.

    True but then we couldn’t all hysterically make wild claims and accusations based on absolutely nothing but guesswork.
