According to my brother in law (a manc) who I've just had a chat with, we only have 2 important players out injured.
I asked him if he was aware that Thiago, Matip, Jota, Keita etc existed and he said none of them were first choice players! Ignoring the fact that Thiago walks into our midfield when fit, It's like he's doesn't know that squads are a thing and clubs use more than 11 players in a season.
Also Bruno is the greatest January signing of all time and will go down as one of the greatest midfielders in PL history apparently. They really are buying into the hype. Never seen anything remotely special from that guy, he just happens to be a good quality player that walked into a team full of players so shit that they make him look better.
When they inevitably win feck all again this season, he'll be having his head turned by big clubs actually capable of winning stuff. Can see him moving on after next season.
I really dislike him, but he is a very, very handy player. No two ways about it, unfortunately. Great shot, great passing and vision, and always seems to find himself in great scoring positions in the box.
