So Ange Postecoglou banging on about injuries and all teams apart from Liverpool have suffered significant injuries, he also says Spurs have suffered most. Just looking at their current injuries, Vicario, Van de Ven, Romero, Davis and Richarilson. No idea on their previous injuries but those 5 Spurs players have something like 42 apps in the PL including sub apps, Alisson, Bradley, Konate, Jota, Chiesa and Elliott, probably Liverpool's biggest but apparently not significant injuries have 40 apps.
Think Ange is starting feel the heat, starting to talk a pile of crap, bit like his tactics.

There’s also Mikey Moore and Odobert. What’s with the arbitrary 40 games distinction? Missing your first choice GK and CBs would affect any team.
Name some other teams with 7 or more players out at the moment.
Edit - Udogie is also out, so that’s a first choice LB out too.
Bentancur was suspended too but I think he’s back next game.
Relevant article: only Ipswich and Brighton have had more injuries this season.

Player fatigue, fixture congestion and injuries have been key parts of the 2024-25 Premier League season narrative so far - who has had it worse?

Edit 2 - there are a few teams with 7
or 8 injuries, not convinced they’re all potential first team players though.

Udogie has played 16 out of 17 PL games, was on the bench the other night, first two just aren't significant injuries as Ange said. The 40 games was just showing that the players Ange said they have had missing have played more games than the key Liverpool players that have been out. Romero has played more games than Konate, Van de Ven only a couple less. Vicario has played more games than Alisson yet Liverpool haven't had significant injuries according to Ange. He said Liverpool are the only team to not suffer with injuries this season, your table above shows different for starters.There’s also Mikey Moore and Odobert.

He isn't on about injuries just now, he said over the season.
9 other teams on the list with 7 or more out, pretty clear his is starting to crumble and needs to use the injury card instead of maybe tinkering with his stubborn tactics.

I think the injuries right now are a reasonable excuse but you're right, his tactics are the real issue. He won't change though, he's said it over and over again.
