If the reports are anything to go by, it was Pep who didn't want anyone.12 hours left from the window.
we shouldnt be in this position to pray someone comes in 12 hours in to help us in midfield for next 6 months.
Txiki made his bed and now we all have to lie in it. he had enough time all summer and deffo since November to find a target and get them. to think we are down to last 12 hours for it to happen is a joke.
watch us not getting any midfielder in and first Real game karma will get Kovacic or Bernardo or both injured for 2 months.
having said that he spent 100m on Nunes and Phillips. somehow we need to make sure nothing like that is never approved at board level ever again even if Txiki identifies that level of players for us
he might not be involved he said after buying two very young cb i dont know where and when i can play themIf the reports are anything to go by, it was Pep who didn't want anyone.
Considering there was talk of him leaving though, he should never have been allowed to make the decision on future rebuilds.
Go on Wolvie I will bite.Mistakes happen.
All we can do is try and put it right.
Why has the pull of pep not allowed us to go for the very top players? Is it only down to price? Do we not have that edge anymore? Genuine question.
I said during the last several months, not the entire season. During the last 15 games in the league we have 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses. The same record as the rags during these months. And again, I'm not saying we are as bad as the rags. I'm saying that during the last 15 games, aka several months, we have been as bad as them.Except we're 4th with 41 points and they're 13th with 29 points, so that's a pointless statement.

I doubt he fills the defence in front of him with much confidenceGoodness, playing behind what's formerly been called 'defence' and you identify a weak wrist. That's not our problem.
Surely to do with Italy being a much slower league generally.Starting to think a few might be downing tools. Or given up on Peps methods. Walker was terrible here, but at Milan yesterday he looked back to his best. Pace was back and looked defensively assured
LOL, it's Ortega's fault for Stones pass into the mid and Akanji's fcukup and also Phil's brainfart into the mid? You should know better.I doubt he fills the defence in front of him with much confidence
If ederson was in goal yesterday, I'd say there is a good chance stones would have passed to him instead of akanji because he trusts ederson to not lose it.LOL, it's Ortega's fault for Stones pass into the mid and Akanji's fcukup and also Phil's brainfart into the mid? You should know better.
If you generally don't like Ortega and prefer Eddie, ok. But Ortega as the reason for the rubbish in front of him? Incredible.
That way Eddie also was the reason for our defensive lapses?
I'm out.
Ortega was crap yesterday, pure and simple. Doesn’t need debate.LOL, it's Ortega's fault for Stones pass into the mid and Akanji's fcukup and also Phil's brainfart into the mid? You should know better.

Not negligence. All I asked is why we seem to struggle to get the very best with Pep in charge. Is it down to monetary issues? 115?Go on Wolvie I will bite.
I very much doubt every single top class player harbours a desire to play for Pep.
Yes we have made a couple of major errors in Phillips and maybe Nunes. Are we reluctant in January to just sign anyone?
Pep hoped to get one last year out of this squad and it’s not worked out.
Are we forgetting Erling and Gvardiol signings?
Yes mistakes have occurred but to anyone calling out highly professional people such as Pep and Txiki as negligent is looking at the wrong answer to our situation.
All imho of course.
Surely to do with Italy being a much slower league generally.
McTominay is currently leading the midfield for the team at the top of the league ffs. Different ballgame entirely.
The rejuvenation in mood like leaving the in-laws after xmas lunch. :)I would say that, but he had his pace back played with a smile and didn’t look to be struggling with any injury. Looked like the old Walker honestly should’ve had man of the match. If it was against Lower opposition I’d say maybe it was the league but it was against Inter. He was playing with a lot of effort as well. Looked nothing like the Walker we had this season.
