I’m not sure how we’d have kept him happy. That’s the issue.

By playing him mate. He is certainly good enough and a Manc at that!

 

[SWPISHOME]

I was called this that, and the other when I was criticizing us despite us winning earlier in the season, and, well, the chickens have come home to roost. I said giving Walker a three-year extension, despite Pep benching him in the CL final, was utterly ridiculous, and I have been proven right, for over two years now, at that.

The harsh truth is that Pep is more concerned about his net spend and how it looks upon his legacy than the quality of our current squad. I know that will be controversial, but surely this won’t: he’ll leave the club in far worse shape for the next manager than he found it. I refuse to believe he could watch Cole Palmer in our matches/training, day in and day out, and say,’ yeah, he CAN’T go on loan. He either stays or is sold.’ while having the CLUB’s interest at heart.

As I said before, a downturn was expected, but the squad planning has been awful, and if it solely has to do with the charges against us, then fair enough.


We’ve got a fight on our hands for the top four now.

Wow. That's some statements to be making.

His first season he had a squad with Mangala, Bony, Iheanacho, Fernando ect along with players at the end of the careers like Clichy, Kolorov, Zabaleta and Sagna...

Pep completely transformed the squad something in which he gets nowhere near enough credit for because apparently "He only works well with money", If that was the case why hasn't the Rags, Dippers, Arsenal and Chelsea done nowhere near what we have done in the last 9 years under Pep, In fact I'm pretty sure we've more league titles under Pep than all of those teams combined in that period.

As for Walker 3 year contract extension and you been "proven right" how have you come to that conclusion? In the past two years we've completed a treble and winning four league titles on the bounce, In the treble season Walker made near 30 Premier League Appearances along with numerous Champions League appearances including putting Vini Jr in his arse pocket in the Semi-Finals.

For a manager that has done all he has done for us, It's a sad state of affairs to blemish him as you are doing.

We have lost four games in a row and all of a sudden our manager and players are shit, Incredible.

It's going to be piss funny when Pep "proves you wrong" as he does all the time.

Lack of goals is killing us, unless Haaland scores we're no threat, Foden has fell off a cliff, only other player who looks like scoring is our left back, shocking really.
We're not killing teams off, we're conceding far too easily and when it happens we lack the bottle and leadership to turn it around.
We've got away with players playing various positions, square pegs in round holes isn't working.
We've got an injury crisis, we've got a confidence crisis, we've took our eye off the ball in the transfer market, time for Pep to turn it around if he can.
Our league position is baffling considering how shit we've been :)

Eleven games in - the table does not lie. Full strength Arsenal, Newcastle, Arsenal, Villa, Spurs and United are 4th, 8th, 10th and 13th. We are 2nd and can play much better.

Unfortunately, we have some some twitchy fans who do not understand Prem football - or how to coach a team and run a club. These fans blurt out a load of opinions in a panic. Thankfully, the club doesn't ask these twitchy fans for advice on coaching and management.........

 

[how soon is now]

Any team in the Premier league without the quality of players we have missing their standards would drop.
Hopefully most of them back soon I do not understand the panic ffs.
