[Withnail]

Utter tugid, shite game of football. Both teams were very poor and it shows how far our stock has fallen when we can't beat this Rag side. Chances are we will be 6th after tomorrow, we definitely need to beat Palace next Saturday.

Fucking rubbish. If City weren’t my team, I wouldn’t watch us. We are fucking horrid on the eye this season.

Bernie, Kova and Gundo is a fucking garbage midfield and yet Pep keeps wheeling it out.

I have no idea what we do in training. Not much by the looks of it.

There’s a tendency to focus on results over the actual performances and that’s done Pep a huge favour this season.

Forget our form between October and January, our performances have been boring, predictable and poor.

Might as well be playing rugby with the amount of shitty sideways and backwards passes we play.

 

[Goro]

I am just glad we didnt loose that
would have been disastrous and unbearable to hear from the rags

 

[simon23]

I'm not in the "Pep Out" camp yet.

Yet.

Im not sure what else Pep can do with the players he has......who on the bench besides Nico Gonzales makes that much difference....You could argue Khusonov makes us better at the back but what about going forward? Sav and Doku dont set the world alight when they play - they certainly dont score many

Who else besides Rodri and Haaland change that game today?

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

A good point given the starting XI.

Bernardo the only one playing as if it was a derby and not a preseason friendly.

He was absolutely fucking wank Mr Pirouette and backwards just because he kicked a few of the rag cunts doesn't mean he was good.

 

[Fordyboy46]

We are such a hard watch, boring football all the time this season. A shit rag side won't have had an easier game all season defensively anyway, we were impotent with a capital I

 

[jimharri]

Chicken with all the trimmings, made it 2 weeks on the trot now, Bournemouth game too which shows how rioting I’m finding it recently, and going to have to have a word with Mrs Hinchy.

Wouldn't blame you for rioting after enduring that 90 minutes.

 

[Tevez City]

I'll take a point

Now let's never speak of this game again

Now let's never speak of this SEASON again

 

[.db.]

Only had a lower xG twice in 9 years

 

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

Fair enough...I'll concede the title.

 

[Earlyriser]

We've tried every combination of 11 players this year and been shit in those games, too. What's your point?

Yes but it's been different combinations with the same players

 

[Bluearmy]

Tbh mate if the 'issues' amount to one shit season I think we can still happy clap.

Its not going to be one shit season. Wake up

spot on....I said at the start of the season when we won a few games that we werent playing well and we would struggle to get top 5...well here you go

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

ruben allardyce has got them playing like a well oiled everton, we just look bored

As shit, as we are, and as much as I hate praising United, they did defend well and got back in numbers very quickly.

 

[Paulmcfc2703]

Have we? So you now believe Nico should not start for us? Who has the most assists this season for us? Do you not think it could be worth playing him against a team that can't defend?

I see your point. Kovacic, Gundogan, Kev and Bernardo should all start again on Saturday. There's clearly no other options

 

[big gaz]

said last week will be the most dullest derby for a while

it was

Trumpet Own Blow ;-)

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

The mice at OT will show more enthusiasm eating a dropped chip.

Tickled me that

 

[come-on-barney]

Diabolical.
We are in a total mess.
200m in the window and we play one of them.
Probably need to spend at least another 200m to sort them mess out.
KDB and Gundo finished
Foden a Ghost
No full backs is a huge issue
Wank subs as usual

One of them for 200 million let that sink in!

 

[Norbiton]

It’s a relief not to lose to a desperately poor United team, but where was the belief that we would win, how many tackles did we wimp out of (lowest percentage of duels won in the Premier League), how many times did we get caught in possession by dawdling on the ball, how many times did we play the ball backwards when the break was on? Just horrible
