So fukin support him

I have since he arrived at the club - once again it doesn't excuse today, he messed up and it cost us.

 

[Nicholas van Whatsisface]

Tuchel knows how to beat Pep. We won’t be winning CL.

Lol!

 

[Taylor]

Tuchel knows how to beat Pep. We won’t be winning CL.

He's only ever beaten him twice

 

[eastmanc]

Get it won then fuck about with the team selection.

 

[jimharri]

Piss poor, got what we deserved.
Nothing.
All of them were shit.
Title on the line and that’s the performance?
Fucking dreadful.

Title on the line?

 

[Len Rum]

We could have been celebrating the title tonight.
But that would have been no good.
Instead we've not shown Tuchel our hand for May 29 and I feel much better about that!

 

[Brewster's millions]

I’d give Ake the benefit of the doubt considering he was playing as a cb AND lb for the majority of the game.

I did for 80 minutes, as he was covering for that dickhead, but I still think he was poor overall and we’ve overpaid massively for him in my opinion.

Laporte fell to pieces in the last 10 minutes as well.

 

[VOOMER]

Would want to concede first against this lot, could easily be picked off. Chelsea weren’t at full strength today either.

You what? Check your facts first.

 

[madloaf]

Full on fucking mard arse and I'm not wrong

Cool story bro.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Pep's team for the final

Carson
Garcia , Bellis , Ake , Mendy
Palmer , Doyle , Torres
Palmer , Aguero , DeLap

Delap’s not registered

;-)

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

Curious as to who we play for Newcastle. Second team again?

That's the worst thing from today. He has to go full strength now v Newcastle.

 

[BolinCell]

Lets hope the CL final doesn't go to penalties.

 

[Shirley]

Shouldn't be missing penalties

 

[moomba]

Can't remember caring thus little about a loss. Has no bearing on the final, the only thing it does is hand Chelsea an easy ride to top 4.

 

[super_city_si]

First goal...what is laporte doing? Stones or dias fling themselves in front if that. Laporte turned his back on it.

 

[Clembo]

See the idea Tuchel has got Pep's number going round, LOL.

Heavily rotated team in a game which we should of won and they scrapped it in the last minute is now "Tuchel has Pep's number". Good to see the heads haven't fallen off in here.

 

[PragueBlue]

Big changes fucks us again.....win today we could rest them all till the cup final

We wouldn't do that anyway. Players need to be kept match sharp.

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

Too much sentiment in that line up, we all knew it, now Pep does, we’ve moved on and left a hell of a lot of players behind, a legend and some very good players who’ve been great servants, I would only consider Aymeric good enough to start in Istanbul. I thought it was a mistake not taking Ake off who played well for an hour, but tired badly & got exposed, Mendy was shocking and Chelsea rightfully exploited that side, the formation was just baffling, Raz played where Merlin once operated??? Wtf, Jesus was a poor Harry Kane midfielder, and Sergio is shot, how many touches in the box? It doesn’t bode well for the CL final as the team picks itself & that isn’t healthy

 

[dickie davies]

Firstly let's have a scapegoat......
Mendy was shocking. I still believe we do not require to buy a left back, but Mendy has shown if we play anyone decent he's not good enough

WTF was Aguero doing?

Torres was invisible

I also think that if it were Dias instead of Laporte, their first goal wouldn't have gone in. Laporte turned where as Dias would have thrown his body at it

That was a nailed on penalty not given on Sterling. Why would any player dive when they have a free shot at goal! It makes no sense and if it wasn't a pen then it should be a booking

This match proves that without any midfield general we cannot control a game and we are useless playing three at the back

No matter what happens with the rags next three matches, vs Newcastle we play our best eleven and no fucking about

 

[Blue Til Death]

Why not play your strongest team ,We don't play till next Friday for fucks sake.get the League won and then rest. It's not rocket science Pep.

Injuries mate, that’s a risk Pep couldn’t take, today won’t affect the PL, would have been great to win it today but an injury free run up to the CL final is more important...

That’s how I’m soothing my rage inside, anyway
