With all the talk about the training being too intense, it was nice to hear Keane and Rio on the overlap talking about the 5-a-side games in training being so competitive that they'd kick lumps out of each other. Young players v old players taking no prisoners, but still able to play at the highest level the next game.

Built different Danny.
Too easy to cry off these days. Martial for example, suddenly gets an injury when we go 1-0 down. Pogba used to pull that stunt too.
Happy made a good point earlier, the number of injuries Liverpool had in Klopp's early years is a good comparison with where we are at now. Ole seemingly used to let them do what they want, ETH is making them work, and they don't like it.

I think a few of the biggest injuries this session have been suffered by eth signings.
Malacia
Martinez
Mount
Ericksen
Casimero
Newcastle have had the worst injuries this season.
Then there are 6 clubs equal including Chelsea Palace spurs Liverpool and ourselves in terms of games lost to injuries. Some clubs have very few so it's hard to understand without knowing why city have so few.

4 x CBs injured in two games! What's the defence looking like sunday? Maguire and Kambwala?

Maybe it is because there is a lot of competition for places at City and the players are willing to play through pain/ niggles just to get a game?
