Manchester City Women's team is having a tumultuous season marked by a severe injury crisis, interim managerial changes, and lackluster performances, jeopardizing their hopes for Women's Champions League qualification. Last year's strong effort, where they narrowly lost the Women's Super League title, has been overshadowed by persistent injuries affecting star players like Vivianne Miedema and Khadija Shaw. Currently, they reside fourth in the league, well behind Manchester United, with key games remaining. Interim manager Nick Cushing expressed the need for a thorough examination of their injury issues and performance levels moving into the summer, emphasizing the necessity for change.
With so many injuries, they can't be all bad luck and they can't all be down to bad practice. We have to look at everything.
An injury crisis, managerial upheaval, and disappointing performances in the biggest moments have all contributed to what has been a season to forget.
City currently sit fourth in the WSL, seven points adrift of Manchester United in the final Champions League spot with just four games left.
Any team without Vivianne Miedema, Khadija Shaw, Lauren Hemp and Alex Greenwood would drop their level, and City's extensive injury list has severely impacted their campaign.
