Injury Effect on Manchester City
Fans are expressing their interest in the current condition of the title race, with Manchester City getting defeated in their League games and in the Champions Leagues all in a row. City has faced injury crises like every other club but has always managed to pull a comeback. However, fans are worried this season might differ with the new Liverpool coach, Arne Slot, who is tightly leading the title race.
Manchester City are now playing games without their best defensive midfielder due to an injury crisis within the club; Rodri’s absence is affecting the team's balance, resulting in the team losing matches. Kevin de Bruyne and Jeremy Doku all returned from injury and are just getting aligned with the team interface.
Manchester City hope to keep their title race up in their next game by beating Tottenham and securing the 3 points in a bid to fight for the title. The team under Pep will surely give the fans a game worth watching till the end of the season, but Guardiola’s recurring defeats send out a note of worry to fans on whether the team can win the Premier League this season.
