So Pep is responsible for all the injuries?

No but he is absolutely responsible for not adapting the team style of play to suit the players available

 

[Platt Lane veteran]

Correct . This season we are done but at least we know we will come back and will be better with the right players coming in and yes Liverpool are gonna batter us today but this team has won 4 in a row which will never be done again so it’s not all bad :

Yeah but now, right now, we look fucking dreadful.

The resigning of gundogan is like going back to a old girlfriend,it’s never the same or a good as the first time

 

[youngbob]

He won't change what has brought us 4 titles in a row.

He doesn't need to change it permanently, just enough to stop the rot and get a bit of confidence back. If you've got a limited squad for six weeks then play limited tactics for six weeks and get back to normal when your trusted players are back.

 

[Keeper!]

You buy average you become average that’s where we are.

Not for average prices or wages, we got our pants pulled down properly for buying average players.

 

[super_city_si]

Are we playing better or are they having a breather?

 

[SamTheGuru]

You buy average you become average that’s where we are.

Foden's idol is David Silva and bases his game around him? I don't think he could lace David Silva's boots.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Scousers got a new juicer supplier?

Their energy levels are immense.

 

[Dax777]

Akanji at least telling mids where to go.
Need some leadership to boss the ohers out there.

The idea thSt Gundo and Berny don't know where to go is saddening:(

That's a physical ability issue and not a mental one

 

[ufo]

We have a fucking fortune made and refuse to spend it

refuse ? lol wtf

 

[argyle]

You buy average you become average that’s where we are.

Not buying average. It's not buying smart.

Rodri, Dias etc weren't the world's top players before they came to us.

We've just stopped the good scouting.

 

[DATOIA]

Phil plays with the body language of Messi after winning six ballon dors

Come on, show some energy and young blood :(((

 

[dhruvblue]

Get Grealish on to do what exactly? Stutter step and pass it sideways?

Take a shot hit first man Liverpool counter Ake one on one with wingers again and again does his hamstring in chasing while we concede anyway

 

[wolviedinho]

What we all gonna do when the midfield has power and athleticism with guile thrown in?

 

[paulchapo]

yep. Then our board got complacent and arrogant

90.million spunked on Nunes and Phillips. Let that sink in, while we dragged our feet paying that for one player who would be better than both of them.

 

[OntarioBlue]

Gundogan, Nunes, Walker all laughable at this stage.

It’s good that you can laugh about it. I find it very sad.

 

[jimharri]

We have a fucking fortune made and refuse to spend it

Not allowed to. FFP/PSR.

 

[dublin-blue]

The resigning of gundogan is like going back to a old girlfriend,it’s never the same or a good as the first time

Was buzzing at the time but it's clear he's not the player he once was.

 

[Keeper!]

Lewis off, Grealish on the Left, Nunes Right

I wish he would resign sometimes
