Maybe the goalkeeper, that’s about it at the moment.Arsenal also have two great or very good players in every position in their team. Can we say that in any position in ours.
Not sure, but fair play to them the rags usually turn up against ArsenalFuck me how long has it been since they beat us last? Got lads I didn’t even know were reds crawling out of the woodwork. At least Arsenal will bring them back down to Earth next week.
Pep's style is pretty unique. It needs World class player to pull it off. Sadly they're a bit thin on the ground nowadays I think we'll do pretty well against slower tempo European sides, but will struggle against the more rough arse kick and rush sides.

Long live The Don.The Don saved us from decades of taunts from those pricks.
7 points behind serial bottlers Arsenal and you don’t think we’ll push them.If I'm honest, the loss of 3 points is not particularly disappointing, because I don't think that we'll be pushing arsenal all the way, anyway.
The manner of the defeat was soul-destroying, though. It's important to keep a positive mindset if we're to approach the cups with any belief, that's the real worry for me.
I agree re the defence and formation.Ake is a centre half he could have played Kusa at RB and OReilly left with Ake in the middle.Or the actual LB he spent millions on and OReilly in midfield instead of his pet dog Bernardo.Foden has to do more than just lay the ball off and recycle though?Pep's already letting Silva get away with that every game. Either Phil is indet instruction or he's having a bad run.Either way it won't cut it if we want to win major trophies. We've been used to KDB D Silva Gundogan Nasri YaYa and even lynchpin Rodri creating and scoring goals.The fact is we have not looked like scoring in many games recently.
And in that high line we had the quickest defender the PL has ever seen.Oh the high line we’ve had soft 5/6 years that won us the treble four in a row! Knee jerk reaction here never taking context or previous seasons when we won leagues trebles! We building a team now and it will take more time that 1 season..
Totally agree...was shouting this at the TV all through the game ..until my lad told me to shut up !They won ever second ball, we didn’t look like we were bothered at all.
I understand that you are pissed off with yesterday’s performance, but you have gone too far with the criticism imo.
We have seen the greatest English club sides of all time in this last decade.
This season isn’t over yet and those words could come back to haunt you.
We have the basis for another great side and praying Pep signs a new extension.
Don't think the OP will take any notice, he's clearly decided that Pep is the problem, irrespective of whatever other circumstances exist.
No point banging against a locked door.
Last season was the end for our title-winning side. Pep and City are now re-building.He is the problem mate! Predictable risk-averse possession obsessed tactics, strange team selections / substitutions.
Regardless of rebuild, injuries, AFCON, etc, our current squad isn't, in my opinion, as good (or exciting) as that he inherited from Manuel Pellegrini.
We're only second because the rest of the PL sides are poor. It was the same last season.

100%, I get cold sweats at the thought of what it could’ve been. Thanks to Donna the score was kept respectable. Hopefully will never see that kind of performance again in a derby.The Don saved us from decades of taunts from those pricks.
Didn't expect a different response from you, so not surprised or convinced.
But your stance is very clear, and has been so for some time.
