POOR POOR POOR FROM EVERYONE INCLUDING PEP NOT JUST THE PLAYERS.

Fuming is an understatement. Absolutely no belief and conviction in anyone on that pitch and dugout. Just what on earth is Pep trying to prove??? That lineup looking back after joking about it was flabbergasting. No creative midfielder to link up anything. What’s the point of the Pep Lindjers and his pressing if the players don’t press? What’s the point of Haaland playing when he is clearly injured and not fit? If I’m Marmoush I’m going to his door and giving him an earful.

I’m sick to death of this “Real Madrid mentality” NO. Iv seen us take them apart and match them when the mentality is right and it seems the players either thought it would be easy or lacked belief.

MASSIVE! HUGE HOLES IN THE MIDFIELD. We can talk about formations and how to play but the basis of any game is to control that midfield! At half time I would have wacked on Nico G next to Rodri to get some control and sacrificed Semenyo (who was blinded by the lights and bar positioning for a goal is useless).

Cherki when on was actually dictating tempo AGAIN yet Pep never starts him. I’m baffled. Again what is he trying to prove? Savinho I really love and don’t blame him at all at trying to make things happen but he should NOT have started this game. So many things went wrong and to think they had so many players out injured with half probably more than likely to feature in the reverse I’m just fuming.

By no means are we as finished as the pundits say. But my god our mentality is just awful.
 
Tactics were so shocking from Pep. Up there with Chelsea UCL Final and Leverkusen.
Semenyo just looked lost. Marmoush and Cherki need to play the reverse. Only ones who didn’t pay Madrid so much respect. Rodri needs to be in a pivot. Holes that big he can’t do it on his own like he used to. NOR looked poor, is he injured or unfit? I’d get Nico G in for him. Haaland needs to hold bench, clearly injured. Semenyo needs to be a super sub. Doku looked good but there was no other outlet. Savinho looked promising but Mendy is a different prospect to Lewis Hall, especially as he is trying to build confidence. Just poor selections I CBA man.
 
Poor performance by everyone both Pep and players...is Pep near the end in City's bench? I don't know, but he doesn't deserve an end like that... Definitely he is the greatest in our history, but seems we should think about next day... :(
 
I thought Rodri tried the most, Khusanov didn't play too badly, the forward players to a man for me were awful, Doku put a couple of decent balls across the box, but it was empty, and so often he gets past the defender, but doesn't cross.

Guehi had probably his worst game so far, Dias not far behind.
 
Khus.

There was not a lot of standouts tonight unfortunately.

Khusanov was our best defender.

O'Reilly was our best player in the 2nd half imo and was unlucky not to score!
