Clichy aside, I'm more concerned with the midfield. Spineless doesn't begin to describe KDB and Sterling. You can have all the talent in the world but if you've got no heart, you're going nowhere. Silva is about the only one in there who stands a chance of winning a 50/50 although Dinho knows how to foul which can come in useful.
Agree about the midfield.
Nowhere near good enough for what Pep wants. It concedes control far too easily/

Clichy has been personally at fault for far too many goals this season. I would guess at at least 10. How the board have failed to bring new fullbacks in is beyond me.
They're more arsed about signing ten attackers every summer.

Yaya was completely useless when he came in. Yet people was crying for him in the Monaco game.

Are you for real?
Totally natural position for his arm there... now listen to my 10 paragraph rant about how shit all our players played today.

Anywhere else on the pitch and thats a free kick.
Ive almost given up hope of being on the end of a decision from a ref.

So Sterling was not injured according to Pep in which case he should make the lazy twat walk home.
Should have kept him on and give Arsenal still something to think about. He certainly couldnt have done any worse 2nd half to what we saw.

This.Don't do enough in these games to win it.
Not enough belief desire or application.
Poor result
We're incapable of winning important games like this.
We've always got the ability to give one or two goals away at any time , Spurs being a perfect example
And today and Monaco.
We can't hold on to a lead.
No leadership on the field.
Not seen anything from the Manager to suggest he is more tactically aware than Uncle P.
Started off well, then reverted to type - passing sideways and backwards and giving possession away cheaply.

Right but wouldn't you rather have those calls and the points and then Pep can still be on their backs because we want to win the title rather than secure top 4? It's one thing to say we shouldn't be relying on the ref and put all our chances away but it's not wrong to say we probably would have won if a penalty was awarded there, especially if Coquelin gets the second yellow ontop of that.
i dont believe it was a penalty so no i dont want a call that I belive is wrong and i wont use it as an excuse cause that then ignores all the things we need to improve
the sending off's (potential_ ...absolutely cocqulain should have gone deliberate break away stopping "challenge"
Improve how we defend and ( and just for today's game our passing as it is normally really good) and we win...regardless of a decsion that does or doesnt go our way....
Ive never said anyting today about ptting our chances away...we didnt create that many actual chances due to our poor passing.....we got ourselves into postions on the pitch where we could have but it wasnt even the final ball today....it was breaking down 2-3 passes before that......thats the real disappointing thing
