Like it or not, it's where money and fame is at. EPL still has the most eyeballs and cash tie to it. Believe me, I rather watch La Liga and Bundesliga games.
EPL is like summer blockbuster movies: you watch it if you prefer continuous action, and most people do. Serie A is more like watching a live lecture from the physics department of the University of Oxford on YouTube: it's going to get tedious at parts, but after it's done, you're going to feel you learned something. Although now the EPL finally bought some top notch brains to guide their brawn, so this season they have been exciting on more than the simple "look ma, it's fast!" level.
Squad news ahead of Gladbach:✅ @YussufYurary has recovered from his illness and could return to the squad✅ Willi #Orban is back after serving suspension❓ Jean-Kévin #Augustin trains individually (after illness)❌ Tyler #Adams (adductor)#DieRotenBullen 🔴⚪ pic.twitter.com/sxPCeC2pSY— RB Leipzig English (@RBLeipzig_EN) April 19, 2019 Adams is going to be well rested heading into the Gold Cup this summer!
As expected, Adams does not make the 18 for today's match against Borussia Moechengladbach and Fabian Johnson (who does make the bench). However, Adams is still putting in the work today: Already a fan favourite 😊@tyler_adams14 #DieRotenBullen 🔴⚪ pic.twitter.com/pPw3iYR6km— RB Leipzig English (@RBLeipzig_EN) April 20, 2019

Hmmm, I wonder with 4 games left if TA's extended season is over. RBL are pretty well set for 3rd - 8 points out of 2nd and 8 points free of 4th.
I doubt it. I think if he's healthy, he will play. He's that type of competitor. Also, the more he plays, the greater his value for a transfer in the long run. If he sits out the season, there's a greater risk for being labeled "injury-prone."
I'd also add that the German Cup final is after the Bundesliga season ends, so they certainly would want Adams back for that match likely against Bayern. RBL is up 1-0 against Hamburg with an early Poulsen goal.
2-1 again in favor of RBL. It appears to be an own goal created by Poulsen's cross in the six-yard box.
You’re wondering? I backed [read “bet $ on”] Leipzig to win the DFB Pokal based on him blowing up Bayern attacks. Not liking that bet so much if TA isn’t playing.
Is he dead? Not having legit injury updates is triggering me a bit as we creep towards the end of Leipzig's season and the Gold Cup.

It's not an injury update to just say Tyler isn't playing and a body part in parentheses! Like, does anyone know anything about a timeline?
Adductor is a fancy name for groin pull. If it's a bad one, think up to 2 months, 6 weeks on the good side. If it's a wimpy one, he's basically healthy now but they're keeping him out.
