I agree but not Vinny yet, he will come back as manager one day if and when he learns the trade and is successful.

Fernandino should be made no2 today, great respect at the club, intelligent, and not scared to call people out when required.

He is finished as a player, it would clear a highly valuable squad spot and give fresh impetus to Pep and the coaching

The current no2 is not fit for purpose and far too close to Pep to challenge him.

It certainly needs to be someone who will challenge peps ideas and bring their own to the table
 
Rodri's comments were pathetic.

The exact stuff we used to slaughter people like Rio Ferdinand for.

The most infuriating thing was him saying along the lines of "should we have just passed between our centre backs for 80 mins seeing as Leicester wouldn't press?"

That would have been a far better tactic than continuing to throw the kitchen sink at them when we were 1-0 up. Ridiculous game management and only Pep to blame for that.
 
No way would Pep have Kompany as his assistant nor would the club dare to get involved with telling him who should or shouldn't be in his staff.
Vinny literally said on Belgian TV about a month ago that Pep asked him to replace Arteta lmao
 
I think you are with Doyle.He looked great in the Cup,one of our better players first half.
He's tenacious,energetic and mobile,calm on the ball,reads play very well and can pass the ball/build attacks from the back.

At 18,it's only experience he's lacking.I'd definitely be playing him ahead of Gundogan,who doesn't have the same energy/industry or aggression.

What do you not like?

THB is gonna struggle,a loan will find his ability.

Nothing I don't like mate I just don't see him being a top top player.
 
City needs to get the house in order real quick. There is an air of invincibility about Liverpool on how to approach the game. They have really made some shrewd signings without spending as much as us and Kloop in his attitude looks very rejuvenated. There is still a long season to go but they look dangerous. Another PL or CL title for Liverpool and Kloop may overtake Pep's legacy in the premier league.
And I don't like the leeway being given to Pep in terms of contract extension and other things. He is not bigger than the club and IF his mind is not right for the job it's better to move on. His last few outings and temperament makes me shudder
 
Not bringing in an energetic midfielder to help replace/rotate Fernandinho will be our undoing.

Last season we looked vulnerable when he was moved to defence. We looked slow as hell without him against Lyon. Against Leicester the team fell apart as soon as he was substituted.

I don't know what Pep, Txiki, etc, are seeing that I'm not?

I don't think you are alone tbh.
 
Numbers in that position?

If he is a striker we only have two, and one of those is 17 years old!!! (Jesus is a forward not a striker)
So what is Jesus now? This place is unbelievable yo justify signing players positions are being changed.

People said We need to sign wingers bcoz Bernardo and Foden aren't one. And then people say we need to Central Midfielders bcoz Foden and Bernardo are not CM.

I don't know how people want us to striker when we have 2 for one position and kne top talent coming up. Injured players will return soon and then thisnshort term striker will eat into wages a foreign spot and fee minutes which Delap deserves
 
First time id rather have liverpools midfield to ours. First time i dont see ours as the best.
Lost peak ferna and peak silva and not been adequately replaced.
All theirs are now at their peak or even approaching so we do need reinforcements there to anyone thinking otherwise.
Get a decent CM and he hides a lot of deficiencies elsewhere
