I loved gundog in his last year, he was so inspirational. When I heard he was returning I was stoked. Some might say don't go back, and I have to agree, Hès been stinking the place out since he returned, though there's more pressure on him with Kevin out. almost as bad as Walker who looks shot. Anyway, up the blues, we are still second!
I would say Nunes should take the role Gvardiol has and the latter should move into central defence. We need Gvardiol to be able to pass forward from the back (no risk takers there means we are slow) and Nunes can also cover defensively.Problem with McAtee is that when he gets a chance, he doesn’t grab it and say you can’t drop me now. His performance against Spurs was lacklustre and I thought he was outshone by O’Reilly.
For me, Nunes needs to move into the middle now to see if he can do it there and Doku can come back in.
Constantly conceding as well. Really need to tighten up.Not sure we have many defenders currently capable of playing consecutive matches (maybe only Akanji/Gvardiol), so the defence is constantly changing.
Agree. A Rodri back up in January is now essential. But we have missed KDB & Foden both of whom have not played well this season. But it’s only 10 games in & we’re still second without many of our top players.We have to buy a CM I just dont think Kovacic is good enough. I realise Gundo and Foden having stinkers but the 6 is essential to our system and he wouldn’t have got in a city first 11 for the last decade now we are reliant on him. Not solely his fault but since we’ve been reliant on him we can’t keep a clean sheet. The happy clappers who said recruitment hadn’t been an issue this yeah have to admit it really is. No Alvarez replacement. No support for Rodri no Walker replacement all proving to be problematic now. I realise that’s our first loss but anyone who’s been going to games will surely admit we haven’t looked great in any game. Not got any pace or power and can’t put games to bed.
Plus Foden out of form.Kevin and Rodders mate. Bridge too far for anyone that tbf.
We’re conceding too many on the break, and teams like Bournemouth are prepared to leave men up because they know our slow midfield won’t be able to catch them.Constantly conceding as well. Really need to tighten up.
I watch football with my eyes- not a stat sheet.
He should have gone last season tbh . Great servant but not what we need and certainly not a captain . Am I wrong ?Ob bloody cene.
Disgraceful comment !!
I know they beat the Arseholes but I hope they put in the same type of performance against the Rags and Scouse. I like what Brentford did when they went Oul toilet..They were.
Or a certain KC has told the club the level of the shit we're in ;-)Something tells me the players know Pep has made his decision.
Haha. Genuinely laughable reply to what he posted, that.I watch football with my eyes- not a stat sheet.
We usually put some crap performances after internationals, but this time after all these injuries and niggles there is anybody barely fit to travel. Halland is not going to last beyond late November with this number of games.I think you’re all overreacting. Upcoming international break will do us some good.
I don’t know what people expect pep to do with such an injury hit and evidently knackered tiny squad, it’s unprecedented in his time here.
It’s a long season, calm down.
No idea tbh. It seems that there’s a real like of talent available in fairness. Hopefully our scouts have some options. I think Wright looks a prospect tbf but he’s not ready yet.Agree. A Rodri back up in January is now essential. But we have missed KDB & Foden both of whom have not played well this season. But it’s only 10 games in & we’re still second without many of our top players.
Who do you think we should buy to solve the problem?
