Just how small are his hamstrings?

I see Welbeck is flagged as having a Knee injury- strange that he was well enough to sit on the bench last night, - must have banged it against a door on the way home:rolleyes:

Suspension tightrope

Notable players who are now only one game away from suspension:

Grealish, Targett, KWP, Dunk, Bissouma, Klich, Lewis and Decordova-Reid.

Players who clock up five bookings from their team's first 19 league games will get a one-match ban in the same competition. So Grealish has to avoid picking up another yellow card before GW22 in order to evade a ban, in other words five straight games.

Also, Bruno Fernandes is currently on three yellow cards. If he is booked twice before GW21, he will get a one-match ban. United play their 19th fixture in GW20. So Bruno would need to pick up two bookings in the next four games to get a one-game ban.

Cavani banned for three matches for his social media post.

Only misses 1 PL game as far as I know - Villa in GW17 and then back for GW18.

Yep, Man City in the league cup & Watford in the FA Cup are in the next 3 games.

Burnley in the newly fixed GW18 is the next game he is available for.

If Grealish was to pick up a yellow card tomorrow night, and hence hit 5 for the season would he then miss the cup game?

Having him on 4 yellows is a bit of pain for a DGW.

No he would miss the next league game. Bans have to be served in the same competitions now.

Any word on Maddison?

You'd assume Ederson. The other two being rumoured are Torres and Cancelo but Cancelo was pictured at the training ground so who knows

Disaster. All I want to know is if Cancelo has it or not

Pep Guardiola:

"The #PL told us not to [identify the players with COVID]. We have to respect the privacy of the players maybe. Tomorrow you will see the lineups and three important players not there so you will know exactly but I'm not allowed to tell you."

[via @ManCityMEN]

So 3 more " important players" out alongside Jesus and Walker

Ederson's insta stories would imply he's self isolating, he had a pic with the kids for xmas, but for new years he has "Same house, more different environments, away from my babies...." His story also shows him on a landing with his missus with a party going on underneath - ?

One of the alethic writers said Cancelo is ok fwiw. I saw the midfielder Doyle being mentioned on twitter as the 5th coronavirus case but I won't believe it until I see the line up.

Sam Lee is the athletic writer if you want to look him up on twitter.

Pep is taking his hate for FPL players to new heights these days

Chat on Saints forum is that McCarthy is self isolating and Adams could also be rested on Monday night.

I have Forster to come in for McCarthy so that tactic worked I suppose.

Rest him for the cup if needs be, already down to 10 for this GW

I’d imagine Adams will get a run even if rested as Ings won’t last 90.

eoghan104

Is there any word on Podence anywhere on why he was not in the squad yesterday? Team is already light for next week so I can't really carry him.
