So do I, but that's not proof he'd be the answer to current form.I feel for the lad.
It takes an insane amount of talent for Pep to trust youth in his midfield.Wright or O'Reilly must also be lost causes if they can't get a look in over a completely washed Gundo. If that's the case we're in even worse shape than many are saying...
Yeah we just get to see the "trust" of Gundogan stinking the midfield out instead.It takes an insane amount of talent for Pep to trust youth in his midfield.
His management of Palmer was 2 years ago, in a treble winning season (remember that ?), who was he replacing in that team realistically (even from the bench - though he did quite a bit) ?Pep is brilliant at many things but his management of Palmer and now McAtee has been little short of a disgrace.
We do. We tried resting Gundogan against Feyenoord, with atrocious consequences.Yeah we just get to see the "trust" of Gundogan stinking the midfield out instead.
Decent ? well I disagree to say the very least.Lewis has been decent.
Not sure why you added him to that list.
Lewis decision making on the pitch makes up for his physical shortcomings.
The first time I watched Mcateer play, I knew he wouldn’t make it in the team simply because of his decision making. He’s very talented but plays for himself most of the time.
Again the collapse was not because of the subs, we were in total control well after the subs were made and Feyenoord were content with a 3-0 loss until Gvardiol made two mistakes to get them back into the game.We do. We tried resting Gundogan against Feyenoord, with atrocious consequences.
Well of course, he'll play his first game in months and if he's not brilliant then that will prove Pep right and we won't see him again, it's obvious that's what a lot of people here are wishing for.The FA cup game will be on soon.
Watch his performance in the game without any bias and you will understand why Pep prefers to play a 50 year old Gundogan than Jamie.
We’d never have conceded 3 before the subs.Again the collapse was not because of the subs, we were in total control well after the subs were made and Feyenoord were content with a 3-0 loss until Gvardiol made two mistakes to get them back into the game.
Feyenoord. Fuck me, that was a lifetime ago. What about the games since?We do. We tried resting Gundogan against Feyenoord, with atrocious consequences.
Nobody here is ever wishing that, but if he gets a game and struggles against Salford, it's not doing him any favours is it ?Well of course, he'll play his first game in months and if he's not brilliant then that will prove Pep right and we won't see him again, it's obvious that's what a lot of people here are wishing for.
He hasn’t been trusted as that game scarred Pep.Feyenoord. Fuck me, that was a lifetime ago. What about the games since?
Actually we could've easily conceded 3 before the subs if Gvardiol is passing it straight to the opposition, our midfield wasn't invisible, like I said we were in total control before Gvardiol's brainfarts, you can keep blaming McAtee and Nunes all you want but they weren't to blame for that, and yes he hasn't featured since and guess what ? the midfield is still absolute shite and getting run over and we are still making stupid mistakes leading to goals.We’d never have conceded 3 before the subs.
Playing Nunes and McAtee in the middle made our midfield invisible.
It’s no coincidence that McAtee hasn’t featured since.
Well getting destroyed by a rubbish Spurs team didn't scar Pep apparently, he still trusts the same players that played that game, oh and the main reason for that Feyenoord collapse is still getting picked.He hasn’t been trusted as that game scarred Pep.
Under normal circumstances I would agree but these are far from normal circumstances...It takes an insane amount of talent for Pep to trust youth in his midfield.
Are you really resorting to facts?Again the collapse was not because of the subs, we were in total control well after the subs were made and Feyenoord were content with a 3-0 loss until Gvardiol made two mistakes to get them back into the game.
Pep just wants to find a reason to not pick the players he personally does not like. Of course as the manager he is entitled to it. But he must be held responsible for the result as well when he picks his favorites. BM acted like everything on the players not the manager it is laughable.Well getting destroyed by a rubbish Spurs team didn't scar Pep apparently, he still trusts the same players that played that game, oh and the main reason for that Feyenoord collapse is still getting picked.
