Except that Pards also stated that it affected preparation time for the following games which obviously makes sense.

 

Id find it a bit laughable to suggest at this point Europe had nothing to do with last season, as often as it was used.

 

:lol:

 

He also stated that fatigue was a problem for certain players who played on a Thursday in Europe and rustiness for players who hadn't played on the same Thursday in the same game.  Does that also make sense?

The players never seemed to look too fatigued when we'd go to Sochaux or Breda or some other no-mark side and give them a good three or four goal howking under SBR, and then 9 or 10 of the same 11 would line up that weekend like.

We seem to have an extra Strength & Conditioning coach called Chris Wilding join from Blackburn this summer, so we seem to be fairly well stacked in this area.

Do you disagree that that makes sense? Fatigue if they'd played midweek and the opposition hasnt does also yes? The issue was him complaining about it when half the side hadnt played midweek. Rustyness doesnt nah.

 

No reason to take the whole "ha he blamed europe again" to the other extreme of "Europe affects nowt atall". Participation obviously increases the seasons workload & focus on the league.

Aye because it's the exact same competition and Sir Bobby/Pardew /Their squads are in any way comparable.

There are many more games involved. Do the math.

We played 14 matches in the CL that season, exactly the same amount as in the Europa League last season.

Does that stop players getting injured?

No, but that was his point which you were arguing against? I was just doing the math for you. :lol:
