And it took the media 6 months and 14 injuries to drag that story up, seems they have it in for Ange regardless of what he says or does.

Ange should not be playing unfit players. Ange should not keep injured players on because they want to give it another ten minutes. Unacceptable. If a manager in other industries showed such incompetence and disregard for the assets of the business they’d probably get the sack. Mate.

Because he injured Solanke and Biss overplaying them. When he should have been using Lankshear, Spence and Regullion earlier in the season (and using Gray in midfield).

We can only speculate as to why. And I’m not sure that’s worth the effort, despite the often innate need to know why. But he should not be allowed to do it again.

Or some of the many kids on the bench.

...is only part of the answer. Still, whatever suits your agenda. BTW, how's that dynamic duo in recruitment doing for us...

Tim Sherwood
What's my agenda? Just having spotted that we'd employed the coach most clearly out of his depth since Gross a year ago?

IF you have consistently held that view pre-injuries, then that's a fair point.

Given the standard of his previous jobs, Ange was always a risk. But his inability to be flexible in many areas has helped get us to this precarious position.

Absolutely. I was cold to his appointment, thought he was well short of the calibre needed for this league. I warmed to him a lot though with those 2 performances against Arsenal and Liverpool last October and the potential they showed. But then would have sacked him about this time last season when the regression kicked in and gaps in capability really started showing.

If a player has a small injury but thinks he can give you 45.
Option A - play him for 45, he can't really get about and plays poorly, then is out for weeks
Option B - rest him and play someone who is not quite as good, then play him when fit
It HAS to be option B every time. Every time.
Never risk injured players as they will be lost for 6 weeks.
Never expect a player to play 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 twice per week. Force yourself to change it around so they can stay energised e.g. 90 90 30 90 90 30 or whatever makes sense.

I'm sure plenty of managers will and do take option A depending on the scenario but to do so in our situation just seems crazy atm and it's probably been going on a while now

They all do take A
The game has so much pressure on it
We as fans think it’s daft
GHod knows what the players think of it
They are treated like highly paid prize cattle

Article on last years injuries
We had the highest number of players injured at 22
United had the highest number of actual injuries
Some interesting facts in there
Was a record year for soft tissues injuries
11 was a new high for players out for a game but I think we have topped that a few times this season and had 11 out again today plus 2 injured players playing
There is constant talk about Bournemouth missing so many players.,l sure I read 13!!!. Below is the players missing according to a reputable site, tonight. That’s 4 players missing from when they started their great run in November. ,abbé there are others that this site doesn’t pick up.
And before the usual he is making up an excuse, I’m just stating the facts is that when people start an argument they can relate it to some data points or not..
