LW is his best position and he's better than Doku in that position in my opinion. Pep should not play both of them. But then, who can play RW at the moment? Foden has been awful, Bernardo is struggling.

Nunes from RB. The RWinger should tuck inside. Its so obvious what we should do :(
 
Had a really got 10 minutes at the start of the second half other than that nothing. Still should have stayed on though as the threat is at least there, foden doesn't even offer that.

When it became clear the only way we were ever going to create anything was from the wingers going on the outside, why did pep not switch him and doku for a bit so they could get into crossing positions with their strong foot instead of making them cross on their weak foot?
 
I still maintain that on paper he has what it takes football-talent wise, to get to the top. I don't know if he has the right mindset for that though. He needs to be watching clips of Lamine Yamal because I think he can do a lot of the things Yamal does. Funny enough, they are both poor finishers.

Better than Doku? Savinho can't shoot, he can't pass, he can't cross & he dribbles the ball off the pitch atleast 3 times a match.

Oh my lord, are you Savinho?
 
Savinho is no more than a squad player at the moment, and possibly that is his level.

I'd rather have seen Nunes play right wing today. He can cross and pass and his touch is good.
 
Is it written into his contract that he must dribble the ball out of play every match? Or how about attempting to cross, slipping and kicking it out of play?
 
another one that looks good somewhere else in rather different tactics and we bring him in and ask him of playing very differently.

lot of the signings we make is assuming a big chnge in style only for Pep to revert to tried and tested but found out ways with players that never will be good for that or players that are past being good for it.

Kova, Nunes, Doku, Marmoush, Savinho are deffo not good fit for the tactics what Pep prefer and refuses to change.

I can't fathom Savinho or Doku out.
Great skills, can go past anyone but then make the wrong decision.
Two of them on at the same time is destroying us

Better movement from the strikers, or the ability to win an aerial ball and they'd make a lot more sense. Wouldn't hurt if the full backs and 8s created triangles with them too.

So isolated they have to beat two men, then still get it into the 6 yard box only for inexplicably no one to be there
