City with a tiny impact due to injuries. Was probably a big factor in getting over the line on their treble.

Minutes played would've been a cause of those low numbers too I'd imagine.

Can you expand on that? Not sure if I catch your drift.

Interesting


Having the strongest squad by far last year helps.

I agree with Donny tbh, they're effective no question but I'd rather watch paint dry.

Luke Shaw played more minutes than KDB.

Ratface played approx 3500 pl minutes. KDB played roughly 2500 pl mins.

Generally man city have serious strength in depth and utilise it.

Gabriel Jesus hardly played 3500 PL minutes did he? Thought he missed a good chunk of the season?

About 2000. As you said, he missed a good chunk of the season.

City don't have a large amount of players, but players 12-19 in their squad are far better than the PL has ever known.

If they get lucky with injuries, like this season, then they can rotate liberally across 4 comps with a pretty minimal drop-off in quality across those comps.

Man Utd played a very similar amount of games in all comps, but had double the amount of games missed due to injury.

Players booked for diving last season. Interestingly nobody is on this list more than once. Probably because Anthony Gordon had limited playing time.
