Biggest problem is in previous squads an injury, and we’ve had them, and we had a player of the same quality or near as damn it, to step in and the team coped/maintained. We don’t have that now. That is a recruitment issue not a squad size issue surely.

Yep and we tried to fill the number 6 role both been not up to it after spending 100m on the two they probably worried to make another clanger!

January we NEED 2 midfielders just so the one we bring in the spotlight will be singing on him the presiding him that he could well struggle! 2 midfielders take the pressure of both!

You've seen us play under pep? We defend from the front ! When your a possession team tens will eventually go back into deep defence then that makes vulnerable to the transition! Also teams now are good at passing it around the back and our press don't work as good as it used to..
 
Still in a state of shock about this. I didnt get angry at the ground last night, just a sad feeling of inevitability before the shock set in.

Never known a squad decline so quickly though the writing was on the wall last year when nouse and a bottling arsenal got us across the line.

We totally peaked as a team on that warm night we utterly destroyed the mighty real madrid to get to istanbul and the disastrous recruitment ever since has sent is spiralling to what is now a mid table team/squad.

Time waits for no man. Younger more dynamic men clearly pulled away from what was once the best DOF in football in txiki and where as pep has changed world football (literally down to to u7s football) i also feel his time is up as coaches have sussed how to play him and hes struggling to find any sort of plan B.

I was called all sorts of names on here last night when i stated the result was on pep, but i still stand by it.

Said to the kids last night, who have both only known us to be awesome, thats its over as we know it. But thats fine as ive memories with them that will last a life time.
We’ll turn it round but only to the extent that we will be a team that wins it every 3 years or so with cups in between. Ans thats also fine because maybe the feeling of surprise and happiness will return, a little innocence rather than turning up ‘expecting’.

Ill say this, and ill get roundly slagged so bring it on, but i didnt dance a jig when pep announced his 2 year extension. Ive felt for a bit that we need a change. New DOF , new coach, fresh feeling to it all. Im no ingrate, pep has made dreams come true, but all good things n all that.
 
A couple of individual mistakes from quality players. The performance was largely controlled and decent to watch.

The treble winning squad had moments when it lost its head. Shipping three in ten mins on Boxing Day v Leicester, the semi away when we lost to Madrid.

The subs changed the game. He wouldn’t have made them in a game against Liverpool say.

This so called hospital pass is getting like the JFK magic bullet. It's only a hospital pass because it's to McAtee. To Gundogan, Silva or Rodri, it's a normal pass.
Perhaps he should have known that, but after 75 mins, difficult to change.

Eh? Not sure if you are thinking about the first goal? I suggest you rewatch it, aimless lob back towards Eddie.

On one of the goals (sure it was second), Gvardiol fizzed a pass into Mcatee from the edge of our box. Mcatee was closed down and was closely marked by 2 of the opponents who nicked the ball to start the attack which led to a goal for them.

All 3 goals were an absolute shitshow of defending to be honest!

It was an aimless pass, not even sure he meant it for Ederson, but in his defence he should not have been passed the ball himself from JSP, that was the first error. Not that I’m blaming any individual just a reflection of the general shambles after the substitutions.

Pep changed it up thinking it was done , arrogant and stupid in our fragile predicament

If you're 3 up at home to nothing more than a okayish team with the toughest game of the season on Sunday subs was the right decision.
No-one could expect such fuckwittery could possibly happen. We used to be Sherlock Holmes but have turned into the Keystone fucking Cops.

Excuse me? There’s a team called MANCHESTER CITY and they can stop anyone.
Support the team get behind them don’t let the negativity take over PLEASE :-)

Remember my mantra and stick it to all the visitors to BlueMoon:

MANCHESTER CITY THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD.





@jimharri I apologise for the caps but can you please bear with me for a little while while we weather this storm? :-) Thank you. :-) ;-)
 
Played well for most of the game. Still very concerning how easily Feyenoord regularly got into attacking positions. Thought Nunes was excellent going forward. Pep's substitutions were probably necessary from a tiredness aspect and should have been fine. A couple of shit decisions from Gvardiol and Ederson cost us a win.
