A drop-off was inevitable.
I’ve got shit on for criticizing our performances this season, even when we win, because they have, in fact, been way below par, so I’m not sure why so many are seemingly surprised and/or upset.
As much as I love him, Pep has been awful, too. Where’s the energy on the touchline? Why is Gundo still starting? What is he giving us that McAtee can’t? Why did he keep Haaland on today? he was clearly hurting, and we were basically playing with ten men. I won’t even get into Walker still playing, let alone starting. He’s been awful for two years now. The disrespect to Lewis recently, in my eyes, has been laughable.
Credit to Bournemouth. They’re an excellent team and are the deserved winners.
