Pisses me off that they feel they have to say “that’ll give him confidence” any time Khusanov does something, like he’s some bumbling nervous wreck. He’s the least of my concerns.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Save Eddie

 

[Cityfishy]

The worrying thing is how far we are off this lot. It’s going to take years to get back to where we were. The signings we have made in January are not the right level, it’s going to take 5 or 6 top class signings to sort this out.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Superb save ederson.

 

[EdersonsSmiley]

I honestly don't think Bernardo, Savinho and Marmoush have made 5 successful passes each. All completely invisible.

You'd think Pep would go balls-to-the-wall now wouldn't you, and say "Ahhh fuck it, let's go all out because we got nothing to lose".

Apparently not though.

 

[Brewster's millions]

Some absolute humongous fucking wet wipes on here tonight , absolute crayon munchers .
“ I want to beat them 4-0 and it’s just not fair” type of comments.
Grow a fucking pair of gonads you embarrassing cunts.

So people discussing what has been a genuinely very poor performance on a discussion forum are wet wipes and embarrassing cunts, but people taking exception to people having a discussion and posting abusive messages aren’t?

Makes sense.

 

[Chippy_boy]

Bloody hell, can't recall the last time so many of our players couldn't pass for shit or hold onto it

Tbh I cannot remember a game since Pep arrived that we have looked so outclassed. We look absolutely shocking. The Arsenal drubbing has nothing on this.

 

[MMA]

I do genuinely think Pep fully believes (from reading his books and listening to interviews) if we have the ball and keep it well that is how you win football matches, everything else just 'clicks' the problem is against teams built to counter it doesn't work that well when you can't defend as it just looks ridiculous.

So you could say he's stubborn..

 

[super_city_si]

Save Eddie!

 

[ProofMCFC]

It's just sad at this point.
I imagine he has to be fighting such a personal stuggle when out there.

He is a shell of even the player that performed well for Germany at the Euros this past summer.
I would be 100% on board if these were the last meaningful minutes he ever plays in a city shirt, but we all know that will never happen.

But why does pep continue with it, it was obvious he’s passed it months ago..too keep playing him is insanity.

 

[uwerosler28]

So when stones gets back, even if it’s for 4 games, you wouldn’t have him the squad?

No

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Lets wait for 60 mins to make subs eh?

:(

We made one after 5 mins ;-)

 

[Fordyboy46]

Pathetic, stubborn Pep tonight

 

[Blu1]

Phil jogging back. Fuck off and do something.

He’s been our worst player. Gundy & Bernie are just fooked Phil has no excuse

 

[Feed the Elk]

I’ll disagree - we handed the red cunts three points , and dropped 2 points in so many other PL games.
Who the actual fuck gives a shite about that United game ? The bigger picture is we have been running on empty , with an ageing , injured squad ever since the season started.

Ok. We can’t even beat spurs, Bournemouth, Brighton, palace, Everton etc etc.

What makes you think we could beat Real Madrid?

 

[dubblue]

Haven’t seen one of our players put in a sprint yet,going through the motions for the whole game.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Well done Eddie

 

[eyalluvitt]

Honestly,Real Madrid will not have had an easier champions league game than this in years.

They won’t win it because they won’t play anyone as abject as us again

 

[Brad mcfc]

Poor game management
