    Last season, arguably. We had incredible luck keeping Saliba, Gabriel, Havertz, and Saka fit. Sadly, this season may be a regression to the mean. We might end up behind Liverpool, who also had terrible injury luck last season.

      tbh our left side got constantly decimated last season ngl. IMO we did good in spite of our injuries. Hell, Nketiah started 10 games at the start of the season.

        True, maybe we didn’t notice because we funnel everything through the right side anyway

          I’d argue we’re putting the cart before the horse there. We funnel everything through the right because Saka, but also because the left side hasn’t been able to find consistency and form. In 22/23 we consistently used Martinelli/Xhaka as an outlet.

            Mmmm, maybe you’re right. The left side has been constantly chopping and changing and the right has been White-Odegaard-Saka for two years now?
