Pep might well have been a good footballer, but he can’t make the passes for the careless bastards giving the ball away all the time and he can’t make the dosey buggers kick the ball in the net.

Pep’s tactics meant we were fucking all over Chelsea today, must have had two dozen good opportunities to score, and we fucked up all but one of them.

This is the summary of the match.
 
I can’t think anything could have gone worse. We dominated the game, lost two defenders to injury, and conceded an equaliser in added rime. Thank goodness we didn’t let Ake go.

Spot on I sensed it too. Sometimes your gut feeling tells you they will score, and they did. Biggest issue was game management in injury time. We used to take it into the corner but justgave silly balls away that
gave them possesion.

Honestly, I'm not sure about game management. We've not really gone to the corner flag, this season, so it's been standard, so far.

All I know, is if Cherki was in Foden's position and vice versa, that ball would gone out to the right and all this game management talk would be academic.

Does Foden have the footballing IQ of an actual AM we need? I don't know, but someone clear minded would see the whole picture of a pivotal moment and play the right pass.

Game done.
 
Out of interest; how was only 2 more minutes added onto the 6 despite Chelsea celebrating for longer?! Not that it matters when you’ve got Bernie kicking it out.

Stones has been poor when he's played, so has lewis, which bit of nico g overplayed and knackered do you not get. At most I would give you Kova, Doku comes on before Marmoush anyhow.
The depth isnt there end of. The drop off is too big.

Right. So you wouldn’t have a fully fit John Stones in the squad against Brighton. Fair enough. We clearly disagree.

We almost hung on with a worse team, but they had a better manager as well who made effective changes.

Only January 4th and a contender for ‘post of the year’…
If you hear, tomorrow, that we’ve sacked Pep and replaced him with that bloke, presumably you’d be on here, rejoicing? Then again, would you fuck.

With a better team at home and the other guy I had not heard of making a better fist of it, you have to give him credit.
