Tests continue’: Liverpool title push impacted by horrific season-ending injury

Published

on

Further tests are anticipated to establish an injury timeline. However, it seems probable that the Spanish international will miss the rest of the season, as noted on X by David Ornstein and Fabrizio Romano.

 

This is particularly concerning for Pep Guardiola, who saw his top holding midfielder Rodri leave the field with a “serious knee injury” during Manchester City’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal.

 

Nonetheless, the unavoidable reality is that the Euros-winner’s absence for the 2024/25 season will significantly impact Liverpool and Arsenal’s title aspirations.

 

Without the 28-year-old, Manchester City’s loss rate increases from 10.9% to 33.3% (though based on a small sample size), according to research from Opta Analyst.

 

If this trend continues throughout the season, it’s quite possible that the competition will become more balanced for Mikel Arteta and potentially Arne Slot.

 

While we don’t anticipate our Dutch head coach will secure England’s top honor in his first season, this unfortunate injury news certainly adds an intriguing element to the title race.
