Match Thread | Sporting CP vs. Man City (05/11/24)

[Pingu the Penguin]

I know we all get negative and some criticise about it.
But I am almost glad that this shambles has embarrassed whatever this system is. Because injuries aside we all have seen for quite a while now that something is seriously wrong.

I trust Pep implicitly and I feel this should be the final nail in the coffin of whatever this is.

I feel the rudiments will be addressed until we get our team back and hopefully a stop will be put to the slide before it’s too late.

This cannot be ignored. So count that as a positive.

Yeah. There for all to see

Get up you soft ****

 

[Vester]

Comletely embarrased by a side from Portugal, 3 straight losses and none of our players look like they are up for it at the moment. We cant defend and look poor in attack and it has been looking like that for weeks. Humbling defeat and hopefully it will make certain people in the club wake up. The season is certainly not by any means over but it soon will be unless we make some drastic changes. Both tactically and squad wise. Some poor transfer windows letting elite players leave replacing them with players far beyond their level is starting to catch up.

 

[clarion]

We need a new approach against Brighton.

We can't continue like this.

Dream on.

Park the bus….

 

[jimharri]

Two horrific penalties he’s given

Yep; one for each, so they cancel each other out.

 

[RiversideBlue]

Swales out!

Dig him up!

 

[AlexGrimaldo]

All on Guardiola this

 

[MMA]

False 9 from now on till erl learns to come outside the box and create as well as score like his first season.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

It’s almost like football is about emotion.

No. There are some right raggy fuckers in here. There is a difference between emotion and just being and out and out spoiled rag **** ago expects everything. Can only hope they’re all 11 years old who know nothing better.

 

[Lemon7277]

I'll bet there won't even be a feckin bollockin in our dressing room

 

[WestGorton]

I can't look past our defence. Rodri being injured has exposed the cracks. They constantly get caught flat footed and square.. every single one of them are a disgrace defensively

Walker..Dias.. Stones....Ake...all injured or partially injured mate No Rodri. No KDB. No Grealish. no Bobb. Etc

 

[malg]

Come on Australia......

 

[VOOMER]

He should be knocking on Pep’s door tomorrow and tell him he fells left out and he wants to be more involved. If pep wants him to sit on the bench at least give (him)McAtee a Pom Pom and a cheerleader dress so he feels more involved.

He's the token youth player the real one was sold to Chelsea

 

[Gumzy97]

We can't play this high line against Brighton

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

Time for reflection and get back to basics.

Start with a settled back 4 if possible and build from that point.

No point crying, let’s see what we are made of.

This. And Lewis should be nowhere near it.

He hasn't done enough in the games he's played.

 

[ufo]

naught bit from staying home alone for too long

 

[Gray]

Why in the name of Christ is he bringing Kev on now? Our manager needs to show why he's the greatest ever these next few months.

He is just running down his contract by the look of things.

 

[King Jay]

False 9 from now on till erl learns to come outside the box and create as well as score like his first season.

Maybe it’s a decision from Pep? That he has to play like that? Like the excuse when Lewis plays tuckin shit and Grealish doesn’t score?
