Any surprise when its on paper?

I'm amazed Ireland played in so many games: I thought it was, at most, 10 starts!

he's been invisible enough in most that it was about 10s worth.

I am surprised both by the number of matches that Toure and Bridge have made. Seemed to be me they were out a bit longer. Also, i'm surprised at how few SWP has made.

RSC hasn't really been given much of a chance to show us anything this season inbetween dodgy injuries, has he?

also, Zabba is a Mancini favourite. You can tell that AJ is as well looks like.

lastly, we've been injured more this season than i may have realized. I wish there was a table of games missed due to injury. i bet were in the top 6 of that league table and we hardly even realize it because our team has been built pretty well and has loads of depth. i believe we're the deepest team in the Prem bar Chelsea.

cheers

Its a pity Lescott got injured so quickly after his last stint: he was starting to look really good, even if he'll probably never justify the fee.
I have to presume SWP is being taught a lesson for being too greedy.
Mancini will want his purchases to prove themselves.
Zabba has improved a helluva lot under Mancini: last Saturday possibly his best game for us.

RSC is never going to replace Ade.
Most people don't appreciate how hard Ade works: if only he could keep it up over a season

I take it that's just league appearances?

That's exactly the first thing I thought...

Yeah, it certainly seems.
