It feels like we want to concede

We have moved to “seeing it out mode” my nerves can’t take it

Honestly…how on earth have we got to be at this point at 70 mins again. It should have been done and dusted by 30 mins.

We look completely spent! I think subs are needed

We just don’t really have legs past 60 mins. It’s going to be a nervous hard end

Nunes… honestly.

Have to keep the intensity up. It’s the difference between an easy win and dropped points.

This is inevitable if we don’t get a 2nd. Come onnnnnn

Brilliant first half, excellent in possession, lots of chances created ….. Yet we are thinking the same thing! Gulp!

Maybe age. I think Khusanov does improve us in a purely physical sense. The problem is, at the very top top level, if you don’t dominate games in there entirety, your defenders are going to have to be able to handle one on one situations, usually with speed boat quick forwards. Khusanov...

He can’t play Bernie in the middle unless it’s a double pivot cos he’s not got the legs anymore. I agree with you by the way, it’s not a good thing him out wide right. I just think this is how pep thinks.

I guess speed is subjective to a point, I’ve never watched ait nouri and thought there’s a defender with pace and great powers of recovery. I see player who’s nice on the ball in tight areas, who is regularly caught of position, and often struggles to recover. Not slow, but not quick. Anyway...

He plays Bernardo as he feels he gives the team more control, and he has to do that because Bobb, sav, and Doku give you no control whatsoever. I’m not saying it’s the right approach, but he won’t play sav and Doku together as both are a liability in posesssion. We just don’t have the right mix...

Ait nouri and Gvardiol aren’t particularly quick, Khusanov and Nunes are, but neither are right backs. The defence is a mess let’s be frank.

Doku was bobbins, our wide options are a complete joke.

Collectively we must have the slowest defence in the champions league? Generally for me, the fitness of the team hasn’t been right for a few seasons, too many games we completely run out of steam. Add to that the bench is poor, I’m praying we are two up with 20 to go, as a buffer.

It was an awful decision, but nico is the wrong side and lost dier! We won’t get an easier away game, they were abysmal, and we weren’t far behind. I don’t know who we think we are trying to see out games after 50 mins, we have far too many errors prone players. We just need to go for it...

We’re a team littered with errors, I don’t get this slowly slowly nonsense trying to control games. We simply can’t anymore. Just go for it. So frustrating

Abysmal decision, but in truth it’s been an abysmal 2nd half against a really really poor team! Just chucked 2 points away.

We should never have been at this point! But here we are. P.S football is dead with Penske that.
