Yes this overview is spot on. Ive always said as long as we score goals we can get away with a few errors at the back but we just dont create enough clear cut chances and have a shit defence. Bad recipe.

The really frustrating part is that so many of our mistakes are totally out of character and by so many of the players. We're under next to no pressure individually or collectively then one bad pass and it's in the back of our net. Bizarre how common it's become.

Very true , Pep stole a march on this type of system , wether we like it or not , teams even like Bournemouth et all , and countless other teams , have firmly worked out how to counteract us , yes , we have dominated for 7/8 seasons and been extremely successful, but no system lasts forever , and let’s be honest here - we have had the worlds best players to make all of this work , but those players have shot their bolts now , and this league will just never see the likes of Kev, Yaya, Bernardo ,Silva, Aguero Walker , Stones etc , ever play in the same side again, a complete absolute world beating team , with a world beating manager at the helm. Yes , we have Foden and Haaland , but who now steps up to compete with that lot in one team ? Kompany , the list goes on, we’ve seen the best ever , a team and squad that has smashed every record in football. Cycles come to an end , it’s how we progress from this that’s most important. Pep’s time is nearly done , something fundamentally isn’t the same , Txiki is on his bike , and Pep just won’t ever be the same when he leaves . He’s got one more season if that , wouldn’t surprise me at all if he leaves end of the season.

You're right about cycles coming to an end and it's all about how we progress from here. Pep has to be a part of that and won't go until that's set up.

Fuck no. I’m genuinely at peace with the dippers winning it if that means these fucking idiots don’t. Arsenal will win precisely fuck all.

Manchester City's Main aim is and always will be to finish above the scum

F*CK new players - bring a decent defensive coach in! Even if we amazingly, suddenly, learn how to utilise Erling, Phil, Mouchie etc properly, it will matter not a jot as long as we're laying out the welcome mat to every Tom, Dick & Harry running at us with the ball.

Why would we need a new defensive coach? That’s completely ignoring how we play football!

But I think we need to get used to it as this is our new mentality really

Well it's certainly our been out mentality all too often the past 4 months and it's dreadful. This complete lack of resilience will be a real problem if it remains.
 
One final thought on today - what's all this talk about "rivalry" nonsense with Arsenal & City btw? They havent won the league in over 20 yrs, have won 1 pot in the last 10 & have only beaten us twice in a decade. When theyve won a Prem Lge title or two again that wasn't analysed by Richard hairy hands Keys, a European Cup at all ever & done a treble they can talk. Until then, they can fuck off the green.

If it was Liverpool giving it the big un then they'd have the right having, you know, won a fair few pots in the past decade & some games against us, but Arsenal? Do me a favour and come back when you've something to show for all the preening and self-anointing.

(Gets off soap box)

that's too huge fundamental gaps as a team, not creating and shite defence..as a team...might be some good bits in between but to be effective work needs to start now,,i earnest in those 2 areas
 
Think if we are being honest we have not recruited to the same level as previous.

All this doesn’t happen if you replace top quality players with top quality players.

Financial restrictions have had an impact.

How we negotiate this and find a way to buy top tier again is anyone’s guess.
 
Think we was in game when up to when we scored there keeper made few good saves first half,we made sum shockin errors for at least 4 of there goals,ortega had a shocker,we gotta dust ourselfs off from this an just go again,lets get it right we wasent winnin leauge anyway,brugge midweek was way more important to me,yess we got madrid now,which everyones shittin there pants about,who have also not bin the best ,thats why there also in a play off,were gonna get gonzalez tomorrow,and a right back,this is goin to happen,an main focus is on madrid game ,get a result at home and rest everyone before away leg,who cares,just go for it,and this game today will be a distant memory,arsenal aint winnin shit,weve got a good few players comin back aswell ,bin a dreadfull season,but it aint over yet trophy wise
