Guardiola: Match congestion is the cause of injuries
"Manchester City" head coach Josep Guardiola shared his opinion on the decline in results due to the increase in injuries within the team. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
This was reported by euro-football.ru. The team under Guardiola's leadership has not been able to start 2026 successfully.
Although the "Citizens" have won two matches in cup competitions, there have been no positive results so far in the Premier League and Champions League. The team is limited to three draws and two defeats.
This situation has also been influenced by several players being sidelined due to injuries. According to the coach, the main reason for the increase in injuries is the excessive congestion of the match schedule.
"Last season, we faced such a situation in November, and this time it happened again in January. The reason is the large number of matches.
We have experienced doctors, highly qualified physiotherapists who work around the clock. But the main problem is the excessive number of matches.
This is not only observed in our team but also in other clubs," Guardiola said in an interview with City Xtra. On Saturday, "Manchester City" will play against "Wolverhampton" in the Premier League and will try to end their unlucky streak.
