Genuinely think that’s @tolmie's hairdoo worst ever take haha :)

Foden has had one bad half season in his entire career and has shown signs of making a return to form in recent weeks.

I don’t see any situation where the likes of Doku are starting week in week out while Foden is ‘in danger’. Foden is far superior in almost every way and he’ll be back to his best in time.

I’m looking at Haaland in the middle, Savinho on one side, Marmoush on the other side, Foden in behind with Rodri holding and a new midfield signing alongside them - Bruno Guimarães or Wirtz.
 
Tolmie also said he think McAtee will be left out of the CL squad going forward, despite the fact him and Foden are the only two club trained players we have!

Being "Pacey and direct" is Kloppo's heavy metal football philosophy and is 100% in the opposite direction of Peps, "possession and control" mantra.

Perhaps TRTH knows something about the future of our club management that we don't?

The Pep doesn’t really work anymore. Pep himself stated that. Football is heading more into an athlete type football with pace and power. Look at PSG, Liverpool,RM. heck even Barcelona has scored more goals through counters this season. We looked far better with Savinho there and looked better when we had Marmoush on the field against Chelsea.
 
Just didn’t happen for Phil today. After gifting Partey the ball for the deflected second, his confidence seemed shot and he was misplacing passes left, right and centre. He’s given a lot the past few weeks, perhaps a game too far today. He’ll come good again.
 
He’s had such a poor season by his standards rubber stamped with that appalling cross field pass 39 seconds after our equaliser
 
It was a shit pass that changed the momentum of the match, but you can count on one hand the passes that have led to goals like that one over his career.

The fact that I saw multiple posters saying to 'sell him why his value is still high' is a disgrace.
 
Scoring goals against Ipswich and Brentford and thinking he's back, his passing is absolutely atrocious, like does this guy ever create anything at all ? I've accepted that he will never become a top playmaker but good lord I didn't expect him to create absolutely fuck all for months now, and if that's not enough he's now assisting the opposition in our own half, totally shambolic performance that's fitting of his totally shambolic season.
 
Don't know what has happened to him. But the lad who was supposed to effectively replace Kev and be our talisman for the next 10 years looks a million miles off it. Hope whatever he's got going on gets sorted out...
