Pep’s Blues in a Medic Mayhem!…
In the Blue Galaxy, known as Manchester City, Pep’s crew are juggling more injuries than clowns in a circus! The Sky Blues twiddled their thumbs in a 0-0 draw with Manchester United and now nervously glance at the Premier League table like it’s about to bite. Currently lounging in that fifth spot, they might slip on a banana peel to sixth if Newcastle triumph over Leicester. But fear not, the cavalry of stricken stars might just rise from the treatment bed Lazarus-style to help their mighty cause.
Enter the Scandinavian Giant, Erling Haaland, who tweaked his ankle in the FA Cup quarter-final like he was attempting a ballet pirouette. No exact return date has been gifted to the impatient fans, but the City medics are hopeful this Viking will storm back to the field before the season’s curtain call. The City PR machine cheers, “Get well soon, Erling – the home gates miss their Nordic thunder!”
Meanwhile, Nathan Ake’s foot has been throwing tantrums louder than a toddler in a candy store, necessitating an 11-week hibernation. And Rodri, having combed over pointers from the Everlasting Gobstopper Factory, is also mending his soccer glue—his knee, that is. As for Stones and Akanji, they’re on the fast track of recovery and could be back just in time to help lift City sky-high from their injury marshland. The medics are working overtime with a magic wand and hopefully, the injured troops will turn the chase for Champions League spots into a comical foot race!
