Not often pep changes at half time

If you don’t do the defensive stuff pep would have you. Doku is a bit lazy at times with that side of the game

Not often pep changes at half time

Even he can see the problems we’re having

 

[PrezIke]

Wow Ortega on??

That's an injury to big Ed that is certainly new behaviour from Pep.

Jeremy coming off can see more for tactical reasons and he's young.

Ed must be hurt

 

[I'm Blue]

COME ON CITY!!!
3 points is a must!

 

[roy.or.r]

KDB will score a banger. Watch this space.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Pep has heard the oracles of BM. Doku off, Kovacic on. Ortega on for good measure…

One of his coaches posts in here during the game under the username ********

Just keep it tight and hopefully pick them off for a second goal early doors ..

 

[RobinHood]

Eddie injured?

 

[Bluemoon115]

One of those performances where everything went wrong for him

Happens with wingers, especially younger ones.

Good decision to hook him, but nothing to worry about.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Yeah but have you seen their chances?

Yeah... Don't make 'em if you can't take 'em.

We'll stroll this second half.

 

[homerdog]

Kova for Doku is not a surprise.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Yeah, Ederson looked uncomfortable after that injury. If it's Kovacic for Doku then we'll hopefully be reet.

Well at least he can’t be blamed if we don’t win! Grealish was equally as poor for me and Alvarez. Could have been any of them off.

 

[Blu1]

Cmon city 0-1 will do

 

[eversince 76]

Well by that time we could be behind going by the chances forest haven’t converted,I’d hook Doku and get that extra man in midfield and get control of the game it’s too open,kovacic please ..

Done

 

[Frank the Yank]

Thank goodness for Ortega. Ederson has hardly missed any games through injury but he has missed a fair few this season. Major upgrade is Ortega..

 

[Crooked_rain]

Looks like kovacic is coming on for doku and ederson is going off

I felt Kova would replace Doku

doku isn't defensively responsible enough to help wicked willy down the right. Kova will go central to support rodders and Bernado over to the right to support Kyle. Should offer much more control

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Doku subbed off and Kova on

 

[Keeper!]

Pep using the bench well, great move

 

[stan bowles]

The least of our worries. Ortega is a fantastic stand in

Saved us vs Chelsea at Wembley.

 

[Mr HJ]

Subs hardly a surprise - Pep hates wasteful possession. Doku has work to do and I'm sure he will in the summer then we will have one exciting player on our hands.
