Interesting analysis.

Hahahaha. That's basically what Khaldoon implied to everyone trying to screw City over.

On a side note, I do love a meltdown.
 
Wow, he certainly means business! Happy to be a disruptor, and says that we will be competitive and aggressive in the top echelons of the game. It was said with a steely glint in his eye! That has certainly whetted the appetite for what might follow this summer. Great quantities of piss will be boiled and it will be so funny to watch!

Getting through the previous two round playing our best team, which he then dispensed with.

I would imagine your idea of our best team is very different to my idea of our best team which will be different to about another 100 posters on here, because we do not have a best team, we have a good squad which allows for horses for courses.

The days of having a best 11 belong in the 1960s when teams won trophies with 12 players, because of the demands of modern football that is just not possible anymore.
 
I bet he wasn't "owning" the mistake when it was kicking off behind the scenes.

Six weeks ago he was having Ferran Soriano email the fans with an apology. Now it has blown over it is easier to "take responsibility".

You are missing the “WHY were they the better team?” question.

The answer: We were not able to nullify their dominance in the middle of the park, while they nullified our normal dominance out wide.

This brings the second question:

“Why were we so easily dominated in the middle of the park?”

And this is where the obvious point arises.

It is one thing to be go Mano a Mano, best against best, and lose. It is a completely different thing to feel like we were vested because we didn’t put out our best, and thus list many Mano a Mano battles on the park.

Also of note is the fact that with time slipping away, Pep went back to the players and formation that had achieved so much of our success, and we dominated the closing stages of the game, putting their box under siege.

It’s fine to feel like you want to make a pedantic point about Ferna or Rodri as a DM, but ignores the reality that most Blues (and many in the media) recognize: The Starting XI and formation was a BIG SHOCK that quickly proved to be a mistake. It was not corrected quickly enough and Pep’s emphasis on attack harmed our defence in ways that SHOULD have been clear from the outset.

I believe these are ALL FACTS NOT IN QUESTION.

You may believe otherwise, but you’re swimming upstream against a very strong tidal wave of opinion.

I’m gonna question your fact that the formation was a shock. Why was playing 4 at the back, a DM, Zinchenko tucking in, 2 wingers, 2 8’s & a false 9 a big shock?

That’s how we’ve played most of the season bud, so it’s not really a fact that that was a shock is it?

The personnel was a shock, but I’m not sure playing Fernandinho or Rodri would’ve changed things, maybe it would, but we’ll never know, but it’s certainly not a fact by any stretch of the imagination
