Cole Palmer saved our season tbh. He's the man who should get most credit.
True. Hate to think where we’d be without him. Probably 14th
A massive factor. In general this PL season seems to have had more injuries for all clubs.
For us I definitely think Poch deserves some allowances for the injuries. Chilwell, James, Nkunku have spent significant time out that would be part of his first XI almost certainly. And the incremental impact of the rest of the players coming in and out, and our terrible bench. Someone made a good point on the Haven it’s no surprise finally as our bench started to resemble a normal bench we managed to make better subs to help turn the game against Forest.
Every team suffers injuries but this year we have been unable to play our best eleven at any point during the season. We have had no settled back line which is of course the foundation of any team. In midfield, Caicedo, #nzo and L'àvia have all had extended periods out at some point in time. New players being bedded into a team which has never had any consistency of selection. Palmer and Gallagher have pulled us through and them players such as Gusto settled in quite quickly. It has certainly affected us

Injuries - do they justify our position?
