Not good enough for the league this year. We go again next season.

Thank fuck you don’t give the post match team talk in the dressing room. Jeez!

 

[come-on-barney]

Be nice if we started our best team for once

that would require tactics

 

[vmsuhail]

Love playing with fire, don't you?

New Year spoiled. I'm angry..

 

[eyalluvitt]

Only if Arsenal win.

If they lose it’s a great point

 

[svennis pennis]

He's obviously not good enough to crack the starting XI so why waste him? Pep seems to value slamming shots into opponents shins and ushering the ball out for goal kicks rather than beating a man, creating chances or actually scoring. Foden's insistence of getting in behind defenders doesn't seem to be what he wants in a winger. I'm thinking sell Foden and bring Navas back.

Ah I see, you’re just having a moment post game. Phil will be back in the side next game, no doubt about it.

 

[the-ecstacy-of-eight]

Need to get top 4 as that ain’t guaranteed either on current form. So poor.

You're fucking hilarious pal

 

[SWP's back]

All on Pep that.


Rough with smoooth etc.

 

[Indaparkside]

. We have no legs it’s all so mechanical.

Said Oscar pistorius

 

[Mattyc55]

Can’t keep clean sheets and haven’t controlled or played well in one single home game all season except for the derby.

guarantee we wouldn’t be performing like this if we were battling with Liverpool.

 

[PragueBlue]

Mahrez was one of our best players today. Wtf did ffs do wrong?

KDB shouldn't have been on the pitch at the end. Had a shocker but I guess he's always capable of coming up with something, so difficult to take him off.

 

[Gumzy97]

If Everton is doing number on us Chelsea or Spurs could do a number on us in next month 4 times and we have rags too. This is not looking good by anymeans

If our defence continues like it is Son and Kane will score a brace each. Don't know what the hell has happened to us defensively

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Arsenal are favourites anyway. We're 4pts ahead of a very average utd team.

Are you saying they deserve to be where they are ?

 

[jamielowndes]

“One off result”….. checks last home league game.

Our last 2 matches have seen a win against Liverpool and a win away at Leeds.

The doomsday stuff is a little tiresome. I think the team is a little thin in places and we lack pace further up the field. But I think people just want to panic any time we don't win a game 4-0

 

[Chak19]

Nobody has ever lifted the trophy in December. You don't have to be happy about today's result or performance, but this is obscenely dramatic. We dominated Leeds a few days ago, this is hardly some run of bad form. It's a one off result against a team that did not come to try and play football.

These results happen. Its not the end of the world or the season. Arsenal will slip at some point.

That's the problem it's not a one off, we've been too inconsistent, we destroy Man United one week then lose to Brentford the following week, we dominated Leeds then put a perfomance like this against a crap Everton side.
If Arsenal win we'll be 7 behind, and if we don't sort it out quickly the title could be gone.

 

[come-on-barney]

All on pep again today,mahrez still on the pitch at full-time is one of football’s great mysteries? palmer far more direct gets zero, kdb having a shocker, we were dreadful

praise the lord

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

New Year spoiled. I'm angry..

Better run for cover or else they'll come for your head.

 

[DMA's]

Something is off this season. we have the striker we wanted, he is scoring a lot but its like rest of the team regressed. also our attacks are very Haaland heavy, almost everything has to find him, we were a bit more creative when we did not have a striker attacking wise.

to drop points in these easy home games is gonna cost a lot.

Similar to United with ronaldo last season, can’t help but think the number 9 is a thing of the past and teams with fast technical players are the way forward.

Haaland is obviously brilliant but we are much easier to defend against imo.

 

[SidJames]

Horrific. It’s almost self sabotage.

I feel the same way,i really do.

5 points dropped in last 2 home games to Brentford and fucking Everton....just wow

In tight games like this Pep is like the away side 12th man.

His obsession with playing Grealish/Mahrez at the same time is doing my Head in.

Both of them rarely create fuck all,they struggle to beat a man,never mind make any decent cross to Haaland.Grealish proved that second half was a blip and reverted to type

85 minutes before he introduced Foden and Alvarez energy in to the mix

He changes it at half time we win that game.

1/10 Shocking management by Pep .....truly shocking.If Arteta wins his first League Tile he will Owe Pep a huge Bottle of Champagne

 

[Zenmanc]

It’s called being realistic. I really despise the happy clappers we have.

Being realistic? I know we fucked it got sucked in and fell asleep. If happy clapping is supporting the club regardless of a shite performance and having their backs vs. crying, blaming, whining... The season isn't even half over. If they/you can't clamp down take the dropped points in stride and know there's still 66 points to play for in chasing a team we play twice... this game may not be for them/you.

Mahrez set up the goal, did more than most, apart from haaland scoring from Mahrez pass what did he do? What did bernado do? I couldn't really pick 1 city player today and say yes they can hold there head up, so why pick Mahrez? And the games I have seen from Palmer I doubt he would have offered anyrjing better
