Everything he said should be taken with a massive pinch of salt - he's fronting up for the cameras. He doesn't mean a word of what he's just said apart from wanting the fans to be loud on Tuesday vs Madrid.

If I was a player I would think it’s all ok & it’s not. Not acceptable his attitude & team selection is poor

But everyone liked the team before the match started - apart from the omission of Cherki. I’m afraid the players let us down

I wasn't happy with the starting eleven. We all knew they were going to park the bus and defend very deep. I wanted Nico Gonzalez alongside Rodri and Cherki, and Doku for creativity.

We had three strikers: Marmoush, Semenyo, and Haaland. They know how to score goals, but they're incapable of creating scoring opportunities on their own.

Between Haaland, Marmoush, Semenyo, and O'Reilly, the team's technical level dropped suddenly. It's like the ball is burning their feet. Frankly, it was predictable.
 
We are a team in transition having lost some genuinely world class players in the past few seasons and I think we are doing a lot better than I thought we would at the beginning of the season.

Dominated possession today, 20+ shots and 15+ corners yet players can’t shoot straight. Foden missed the cross six yards out, Haaland scuffed one past the post as did Semenyo, Nunes had a poor first touch with a clear sight of goal and Guehi blasted over from five yards. On another day we win that by two or three clear goals. It’s a relatively young side that will only get better with two or three signings. But some players need to either shape up quickly or tell their agent to find another club.

Well done to arse, they have pushed, pulled and fouled your way to the title, but it’s not easy to defend it, just ask the dippers. We will come again don’t worry.

15-1 in corners 0-1 in goals from them

This is a startling statistic. It’s been like this for years too. I wonder what arse’s goal per corner ratio is? 1 in every 10? We must get the most corners in the prem over the last few years. We prob score almost the least. It’s a real issue and nobody is addressing it. I’ve been calling them back passes for years now.

The neurotic behaviour displayed on here after some games should be studied by the worlds top scientists.

Fucking hell lads, I've seem some shit in my times (Cheers Stuey Pearce) and that was far from shit.

Some calling out effort are fucking clueless, we threw everything at a team who threw bodies all over the place to keep us out, that big **** took one straight in the face at the end.
Off the bar, that save from Haaland was world class, Guehi skied one after it bounced off some lad off the line too.

You're right, we did throw everything at them in the last 30 and were a bit unlucky. But the issue is the dreadful, flat and boring possession based first 60 mins. We even went 1 up and then a goalkeeping fuck up.
Why Pep is playing Semenyo as a 10 when we have Cherki, Foden etc is beyond ne. He was shit as was Marmoudh and Nunes had a poor game as did Haaland

This is one of my biggest bugbears.

Arsenal getting pelters for actually scoring from them as well ….madness. I would kill to be scoring ugly

And then if it isn’t bad enough we don’t offer any kind of threat from the what 15? corners tonight, we concede from one ! YCNMIU

This set piece situation is absolutely criminal. It's unbelievable how it's been allowed to be this bad for so long.
 
For me Pep’s becoming like Mourinho as time goes on, teams have found more ways to be more resilient against his style of football. Move on at the end of the season
 
Everyone give your heads time to think I do believe with are a team in transition a couple of players to get can back were we were arsenal are a team of cunts who do believe have had a lot of luck on there side but we are only side to give them a chase I do think are style of play needs to change as the premier League has no talk of Liverpool being the worse team to defend their title
Let's stop them arsenal winning the final next week
Ctid sorry about my commors etc but we will be back with or without pep hate to say it maybe a change could be good for us plus after watching that tonight I'm pissed drunk
