Didn’t Moyes say that Declan getting injured cost us CL?
Was interesting that he didn’t reference Antonio injury, lack of striker, sale of Haller, injuries to Cress, Masuaku or Ogbonna.
It was that Chelsea game.
Ogbonna Cresswell Masuaku
Rice
Antonio
5 absolute key parts of our 343 out injured, then a dodgy red card.
It was desperately unlucky to to blame any one injury is folly.

When Rice goes we will likely get 80m for him. We will buy a better replacement than Alex Kral
Well, maybe. ALternately, it turns out that Kral is good enought and we chose to spend the dosh on a good striker, a replacenment for Oggy, and a left back. Or we buy sucha beast of a CB and LB that we can play Fornals in the midefiled two and we look for an additional AM.

Or Kral is the Noble replacement and we get someone else to replace Rice. Or we spread the cash throughout the squad. £80m should get 3 solid players and maybe a wildcard or two.
With all the drama of transfer day, it can be hard to keep track of all the latest figures and deals flying around. One particular exec at a big club was clearly hoping to use this commotion to their advantage, but people have started to notice a curious eight-figure discrepancy bubbling up on the books.
At least three unlikely summer transfers are now under the microscope, including one in which the club ended up paying £20m more for a player than the selling club asked for – and it's not immediately clear where the remaining balance might have ended up.
As there doesn't seem to be a satisfactory answer forthcoming, we're told we can expect a big resignation (or "mutually agreed departure") to take place before too long.
Safe to say we will not be in trouble here, we wont spend £2 over the value of any player.
Couldn't string more than 5 games together without injury whilst in Turkey. With him being out of the game so long and his body being completely unconditioned, how many injuries would he get now? Nasri mk2
