Can't argue with that. Nico Gonzalez had won the most ground duels in the Prem coming into the weekend yet he gets dropped and Bernardo who was really poor when he came on against Spurs get the nod in his place. These players are not stupid. No one can tell me they aren't questioning Pep heavily at this point. Pep wanted KDB gone because he was letting Pep know what he thought of what was going on. Very few could disagree with Pep and survive it. Not even DeBruyne...

You’ve outlined succinctly exactly why Pep needs to go.

Exactly this love him to bits and yes he scores again today but after scoring was never a threat
Erling would be worth 2 A class players and without him we’d be back to having a system where all 11 players can exploit their capabilities rather than be “coached” to do something that doesn’t come naturally. And what I find strange we have Erling up front as the typical target CF but never play him into the game except once after 10 mins today he did what he does best but granted fucked his shot up.

Why have wingers/wide players when you don't have any target to hit in the box
Haaland is a world-class player, but when you cut out the ball to him, he becomes Peter Crouch and useless

For a Big Lad, he is very poor in the air and not strong enough

Thank god for the international break, and that's the only time you'll hear me ever say that.

Whether something isn't quite aligned yet or is still broken from last season, something has to change. There's unlucky and then there's undeserving.

Funny thing, either Wolves are doomed and we flattered ourselves in the opening game, or we strictly gonna be flitting about tenth 'n eleventh all season. We can't get a lead 'n keep it!

Grass is always greener / shiny new toy - not sure Guehi would look any better in our set up. Absolute positive was Khusanov, although he was a bit rash for the fk that led to the goal - thought we looked so much better with him.

completely disagree. He is not good on the ball , can be rash and is not got the same positional sense as the rest of the defenders

Who were they? Genuine question. A nasty thought recently crossed my mind...are we signing B class instead of A class because A class players don't want to run the risk of our PL charges? Hoping you guys can debunk that theory.

Love Khus, I think he'll be class. But what's most worrying is this lad is still diving in when he can't win the ball - do we have coaches that have bothered to work on this with him over the last 6 months?

Thought he was quality today and unfortunately came off injured. But surely we've got coaches that have been working with him to teach him when to go for the ball and when not to?!
 
Pep has run his course. It happens to all. For the last 18 months or more he’s completely failed in his ability to organise and motivate his team. We are nothing. Thank him for what he did for us and get rid. Then do whatever it takes to get Vinny back here. I’m sure he could manage to motivate this sorry team before it’s too late.

There was a similar initial criticism re Otamendi. He'd be on the floor and out of the game with each tackle. It disappeared eventually and he stayed on his feet but if it has been part of Khus's game upto now it'll be summat that takes time to eliminate.
 
no one on here is going to argue that Pep isn’t a bloody legend for what he’s achieved for us,

However, I really am starting to worry that he no longer has the answers.

We are being outcoached and outplayed every game

I don't see Vinny will want the job just yet

The Manager after Pep will be asked to do the unthinkable and follow that
