Leverkusen (H) | CL | Post Match Thread

[MCFC1993]

We expected the worst after seeing the starting XI, they were somehow even worse than we expected.

Awful result, awful performance, half the squad can't be relied upon.

 

[lefty goldblatt]

On you, Pep

 

[DTKOAG]

That’s another one on Pep and his Carabuo cup team selection

 

[skillman]

Rubbish. That made some of last season’s performances look thrilling.

Embarrassing. On Pep but also he gave 9 outfield players to stake a claim for their place in the side and they failed.

But he’s also put a Carabao Cup side out in the Champions fucking League. Terrible management and unwarranted arrogance based on the past 18 months.

A lot of them were fucking terrible. And that’s being kind. Genuinely shameful some of them and they shouldn’t be anywhere near the side again.

How Savinho stayed on for 90 minutes is beyond me too. That alone should be raising massive massive questions about the coaching staff.

 

[HelloCity]

It’s pretty obvious that Pep has had a hissy fit with the team and dropped pretty much everyone to send a message because he was pissed about Newcastle.

Cut his nose to spite his face here and it could cost us top 8.

 

[northmr8]

Shocking

 

[Beanhead]

That was so very fucking dreadful.

 

[BUDTHEWISER]

What the fuck was that?

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

This team should still have beat B Leverkusen

 

[abu13]

Pep will Pep,

Fucking shite

 

[Goater101]

Got exactly what we deserve which was fuck all. You can’t make 10 changes in a champions league match. We’re in a good spot a win tonight would almost seen us through. Baffling by Pep

 

[dave_blue12]

A real wake up call.

We are nowhere near where we want to be.

 

[HypnoticBlue]

Imagine if Haaland & Rodri leave next summer?

 

[Blue Abroad]

The silver lining is that we can possibly be that bad against Leeds!

 

[dickie davies]

Where to start with this game, when every player was poor to average
But I do like a drum at the game
I wonder if I'll be let in with one on Saturday

Oh and a special shout out for Herr's McCoist and Fletcher on comms

 

[Worzel Gummidge#9]

No beating around the bush that was a dire performance.

 

[Alexia_Ko]

And he’ll come out in the pressers talking about how he didn’t feel the support from the fans tonight. Disgraceful. Imagine forking out £60 for yourself and kids to see a UCL match on a Tuesday night in a cost of living crisis and this is what gets served up. Absolute piss take.
Purely naive arrogance from a coach that has been managing across three decades.

 

[kippax_blueboy]

Awful, Pep give your head a wobble.

 

[clarion]

Destroyed the momentum we build so hard.
Disgraceful, Pep.

 

[Bluewonder]

The fuck was Pep thinking there? Yeah, you need to rotate players, but 10 changes is mind-blowing stupidity.
