[Sir peace frog]

Sorry he messed up today big time
I'm so angry about the team he chose

Don't be sorry, I was fucking fuming after that,he did mess up imo as well, but he's forgotten more about football than most mangers will ever know, I'm hoping it was a fact finding mission haha

That's not going to happen, I'd be stunned if we aren't champions before we kick the football in anger again.

What, because the rags are incapable of winning 3 games?

I'd hardly be "staggered".

 

[I'm Blue]

wasnt it the last action of the first half ?

You trust a ref to blow up?

Now that I’ve calmed down from that debacle that was I think I’ve worked out Pep’s logic. We’re going to win the league and I believe Pep‘s thinking is that he was willing to sacrifice the FA Cup the other week in pursuit of the Champions League, trying to avoid fixture congestion. He was willing to sacrifice us securing the title today for a twofold reason, one, to lure Chelsea into a false pretence that they can beat us. And, two, to get our players so angry that come final day our true best 11 will be so wound up and motivated for revenge that we will romp it. The man’s a genius!!

When we win the league I want you to apologise about the nonsense you've wrote about Pep.

 

[Gabriel]

So we lose league then

No. We’ll likely win the league, perhaps even on Friday night, but I’d rather hoped to see some of the young players given run outs in the remaining games. That prospect is quickly dimming, unfortunately.

 

[stan bowles]

He was shocking today, really let his team mates down

Should have been hooked at HT for that totally unprofessional piece of showboating.

For all those wondering about the Cl final please note neither this or the semi will have any bearing whatsoever to the result. If anything it might do us a favour because only over confidence or nerves can stop us beating them. We can’t do anything about nerves no matter what the result was today.

If all things were performed in a vacuum I'd agree. But they aren't and 2 wins against us will not do them any harm at all going into the 3rd match

This was about getting some miles into the players who have been out for a while or only sub game time.
Think most will be playing on Friday night as the players who played chumps league need to recover and probably play the game after then off until the final.
Today's team looked all about getting 9 more players up to match fit, we all saw the team and scratched our heads trying to get who was going where.
By chumps league final Pep will need subs who can step in and not let him down due to fitness.
By the hour mark today we were blowing and almost got away with a draw.
Wanted to see it won today with a full strength side but not to be.
Sure I read in the book on Pep in Germany where he likes a 10 day down time for players who have played a long run of game's so today makes sense.
