Stop Panicking.

It's a rebuild and there will be growing pains.


Trafford was solid and didn't do anything wrong!!

Deserves to be our number #1. For everyone complaining I don't see you doing any better than him and he showed his grit with that double save!
I think Trafford is not as bad as this game showed but c'mon, he was responsible for that 2nd goal.
 
Typical Thomas Frank performance at the Etihad, but with better players. They were miles better than us today and Pep should have seen it coming.
I've said the exact same thing, he's learned nothing from previous meeting whether it was a Frank team or Tottenham team...He continued to do the same thing and got beaten again.

Very similar to how he never learned thar Kane drops into midfield and plays the ball around the corner to Son to go in 1 v 1 and score...that must have happened for about 8 years in row ffs.
 
I agree with you mate, but expect to get pounced on. I thought second half, if we come out looking like they’ve had a bollocking we might have a sniff, but just more passive shite. First 2nd half shot on target in the 75th minute? Fuck me.

How we respond next game will speak volumes.

Can't see us getting anything at Brighton ...

Be 3 points from 3 games ....
 
Thought Gonzalez was one of the big issues today.

It wasn’t that he was bad on the ball, it was that he was rarely available to receive the ball and failed to provide a link between the midfield and attack/defence.

There were so many occasions when the defenders had the ball where he was totally invisible and didn’t even make an effort to show for it.

At the bare minimum you’ve got to be visible and trying to dictate the play. I can forgive having a bad day through things not coming off but not being a shadow. The fastest he moved all day was when he got subbed off.

Obviously he wasn’t alone today though so I’ll leave it at that.
 
On a positive note, I'd rather have a wank performance like that while the transfer window is still open, it might concentrate a few minds that we still need a couple of players in. We'd better get a fucking right back and keeper minimum.
 
Dias...another 4 years of him being poor at the back and showing us his big firm tits on Instagram 10 times a day.
Im not on Social Media. But id appreciate it if Dias could leave his frickin shorts alone. What is that nonsense pulling them up showing off his quads at corner kicks? He needs to focus on the football. He’s been dross for 18-24mths.
 
Once again Frank outsmarted Pep, one simple tactic left us stuffed.

The midfield was no exisrant and Dias was shockingly bad

Trafford was thrown under the bus on both goals by his centre backs.

Our midfield just got done.

Lewis and Bobb the only 2 to start to come out with credit, and Rodders shown why we need him
 
I don't know were to start, that was horrendous...

I don't want to read anymore about how Rico Lewis will prove people wrong and how James Trafford is better than Donnarumma...Seriously cop the fuck on.

Khusanov sat on his arse on the bench again whilst we've to watch that fucking fairy Ruben Dias play and wear the captains armband, fucking laughable.

Sorry but let's call a spade a spade, Pep's time is up at the club. Before all you happy clappers start with the whole Treble, Centurions, 4 peat stuff...I understand all that, I fucking love Pep but the way things are going fans are going to turn on him and you can see it coming, It's time to call it a day before this gets worse, I can't see how this gets better.
Worried City are becoming like Arsenal under Wenger in the latter years of his reign. It all looks rather similar.
 
As worse as I've seen us is in years. Not able to play from the back, a lack of pace all over the pitch and no creativity. Haaland was shit today, he can't hold the ball up and he's terrible in the air. Cherki was a strange choice to start and was a rabbit in headlights. How the fuck are we replacing Ederson though?
 
I don't care. I'm consistent. I've said it for 15 months. This ain't pep fc. I'm grateful for everything the players and he brought us. Completely unimaginable in my youth. And finding a replacement will be hard. But fuck if I'm not bored shitless at Pearce levels watching us pass pass pass pass and he's been thoroughly out coached by Al hilal and spurs ffs in the last 3 games.
Agreed...i honestly thought we would see pep evolve the tactics, and last week it seemed we had - but it was obviously just wolves being the piss poor team of the league that allowed us to play how we did

Today, saw nothing that has changed. Haaland ineffective, cherki was obviously given a role but what role that was he didnt even know, were just the tip of the problems witnessed today all over the pitch

I posted a few months ago that the first 10 games of this season will show if we have adapted to how football is played now at strength and speed.

Credit to spurs who showed up
 
High line is killing us when we haven’t got the speed in defence to play it, but Pep doesn’t adapt for some unknown reason, oh well.
