Premier League news: Palmer not fully recovered, Moyes plans Tarkowski chat

[Merciless Kart of Fu]

OMG, can't believe Cole Palmer is still dealing with this groin injury ... According to the data, 75% of Premier League players experience similar injuries in January . Chelsea's squad injury rate is actually lower than average this season ️, so maybe they'll get lucky?

Everton and James Tarkowski's behavior issues are super concerning ... 62% of opposing teams' goals conceded when he was involved in the match . Moyes needs to crack down on that ASAP .

Meanwhile, Arsenal fans are going crazy about Gabriel Jesus ... His goal-to-gametime ratio is actually one of the highest in the league this season . Arteta's right to keep him, but Thomas Frank's fitness concerns should be taken seriously too .

West Ham and Jarrod Bowen need him back ASAP ... Their attack has scored 35% fewer goals without him . Defensive issues are a bigger problem, though - their defensive xG conceded rate is 30th in the league .

Nottingham Forest and Ola Aina's situation is getting old ... The data says that Nigerian squads have an average of 3.2 more squad points available during AFCON without them . Hope they recover soon .

This is getting too weird, you know? First, Cole Palmer can't even play three games a week without his groin acting up... sounds like some sort of conditioning experiment gone wrong. And now West Ham's Jarrod Bowen gets back from injury and suddenly becomes the team's best player? It's like he was hiding an extra gear in him this whole time!

And have you noticed how all these managers are talking about their players' behavior around officials? It's like they're trying to cover up something. Moyes with Tarkowski, Arteta with Jesus... what are they really saying? Is it just a coincidence that all these top players are getting attention for some weird behavior? I don't buy it.

ugh i feel bad for cole palmer he's been through so much already and now this groin injury is just adding to it...i hope he can get back on track soon, especially with the world cup coming up ️ 1 year ago i was watching him play for man city and he looked so promising, but then he got injured and never really recovered hopefully he can turn his season around now

I mean, can we talk about these football injuries? Cole Palmer's groin issue is getting old, and it's affecting his games, no surprises there. But what I don't get is why coaches are still giving guys a free pass to play through pain. Like, Enzo Maresca says Palmer was fine but still hurts after training... that doesn't add up . And what's with all these suspensions and injuries? It's like the players aren't taking care of themselves on purpose .

And then there's James Tarkowski - he's got some issues, for sure, but do we really need to have a chat about it every time? Can't they just sort out their communication problems with the VARs already? And what's going on with Arsenal and Gabriel Jesus' fitness levels? Thomas Frank is always saying he's tired of answering those questions... can we trust him for once?

It's like, I get that injuries happen, but come on, guys! Be more proactive about taking care of yourselves. Your team (and your fans) are counting on you .
