Out with a thigh injury.


Is it me, or is he becoming injury prone in the latter half of the season? Seems to be one after the other now.

where the fuck is your heart Mario? I was glad to see him and Cuads come on yesterday, as I though if anyone can impact the game at that point, those 2 can. Juan hardly got anything right and made tons of questionable decisions, but at least he had the will to try and take the game to them, Mario pulled the most convincing ghost performance I've ever seen from such a tall guy

because he was into it last season. This season he has been dreadful for who knows what.

My guesses are various:

-IMO he is starting to decline and pretty much like tevez with us, he gave us what he had left in the tank last season.
-I think he got tired of playing winger, doesnt have the drive for it anymore and is not willing to do again the same sacrifice for the coach. And since he knows he will never bench Higuain, he is just like "fok this".
- Because of being higuains bench, Maybe he thinks his cycle here is over.

We play better when he's out of the team

There is no excuse to have used him as a winger this season with Costa, Berna and Cuadrado around

When they are injured or need rotation I wouldn't have a problem with him playing there but you just know if he was fit he would probably be starting the Tottenham and Real Madrid games which would no doubt make us a worse team

we played quite bad in possession vs Tottenham and Real, last seasons Mandžukič is missed dearly. 2018 version of Mandžukič isn't missed at all though, I agree there, that guy is a ghost

I dont think we need to ask anything more from him.

If he cant at the very least score half Of higuains goals and he cant play winger then we need to sell.

Or play him b2b instead of khedira i dont know. He is big and allegri likes them big on that position. No pun intended
