Embarrassing, that.

For starters, I’m not sure why Arsenal fans don’t see the irony in how they’re celebrating today with the ‘stay humble’ stuff. They’re quite literally proving Haaland’s point - they’ve bottled another title race (3 in 3 years) but are happy with the small victories in games like this rather than looking at the bigger picture.

On us. So many passengers. So many cowards out there, dawdling on the ball. Backing out of tackles. No real urgency in how we play. Again. Just the same shit week in, week out with no apparent change of tactics from Pep but to flog a dead horse. Got players taking the piss against us. So easy to play against.

We dominated the ball when they were 1-0 up. Because teams are comfortable with us having the ball. There’s no real direction in how we attack and we rely on moments rather than genuine tactics it seems. An aimless cross into Haaland and hope we wins the header? Do me a fucking favour, man.

As soon as we scored, you knew they’d attack and you knew they’d score. But 38 seconds. Jesus Christ. Where’s the pride? The backbone? The fight to push on? It’s nowhere and has been lost for months.

Baffling. I’ll never turn on Pep. Never. But he’s had months to sort it out and hasn’t changed tactics at all since October. We’re wide open. So turn us into a counter attacking team. But then we can’t sit and defend. So put us on the front foot? Fine. But don’t push 8 of our 10 outfield players up so we’re 2v5 every time we lose it - because we will lose it - with no legs to actually get back.

It’s suicidal tactics and it’s criminal they’ve been the same for so long.

As for Arsenal. Fake cunts. From the manufactured song they’ve started playing and trying to claim as an anthem to the over celebration when they’re still miles behind in a title race. Stems from their block head **** manager who seems to alternate between playing left back and right wing depending on which way they attack.

Glad dippers will win the league.

Big Summer coming up for Viana. But before then it needs sorting on the pitch.

Did anyone think we would win or get a result today?

I didn't.

We're at that level now.

But 5-1! Wow!

We have been over taken by Arsenal and Liverpool. Face facts.

Move on.

Just like the old City teams.
 
Embarrassing pathetic twats from the 1st minute til the 93rd.
By the middle of March we will be mid table.
Pathetic transfer window too.
Real will destroy us.
 
Absolute embarrassment everyone of them should hang their heads in shame. We’ve been shit all season and there a day left and realistically we’ve got one player in
 
You will see from my previous threads, I've defended Pep and the team. But something needs to change, I'm starting to worry it's the manager. Please tell me I'm wrong

Didn't expect anything different tbf, funny seeing arsenal so pumped up for it but absolute cowards when it mattered the past 2 seasons. We will be back, anyone in this league can give us a game at the moment.

Exactly this. It's like the entire forum forgot how fucking shite we are in the space of 3 days.

Absolutely fucking shite . Whenever we play someone half decent we get twatted for 4 or 5 , our whole defence needs fucking off !!!
 
forest have closed a 11 goal difference gap in one weekend
 
I thought we were ok until we went 2-1 down to be honest. Not great but at least competitive. After we went 2-1 down though, we, like many times this season, just caved.

I have loved KDB for a long time but his time is over. McAtee is like a Jonah, whenever he comes on we collapse (through no fault of his own in most cases). A few players we need to move on regardless of their past history with us.

Agree apart from we did stumble on a change of tactics v Chelsea second half that looked like it would work against the better teams, then totally binned it off! Bizarre
