Blimey I can’t believe you are comparing players of that era with these magnificent players we have today.

i knowNo .. we dont need a striker, pep said
he was happy with his squad at the start,hahahahahah
we didnt get kane and its all coming home to roost
not that i personally wanted kane
but i did want someone
The quicker we reconfigure the stadium and join the two singing sections the better - I was sat in the 93:20 seats today (normally in family stand 1st tier) and the atmosphere was abysmal
on the game - thought we looked leggy with many sub-par performances. The gulf of space between the front 3 and midfielders was crying out for someone to take up the pockets and get their head up
think Laporte after that performance has given stones his chance (he was excellent when he came on)

Those magnificent players did a very good impersonation of that 1985 era todayBlimey I can’t believe you are comparing players of that era with these magnificent players we have today.
No idea about KDB other than assuming the summer injury is having an impact. But he’s human - loss of confidence. Agree lack of pace and a bit of bite is the issue against teams like Saints, Burnley, Palace who are well coached sides - no shock that they can get a result, palace have the edge on the other two because of the intelligent danger of Zaha.the midweek game is bigger than the derby
pep should play more of the quality youth players we have at home vs games like palace just to fresh it up and rest the big players. we just look so leggy and dare i say slow and KDB is not the player he has been for 4 or 5 years
its a puzzle to what is wrong with KDB ? is it a injury problem that is taking a long time to get over or is it just burn out and got nothing in the tank. what i will say is we have B.silva gundogan foden all good enough for KDB to take a break of a couple of weeks and lets see what that does for him

YET AGAIN, possession counts for fcuk all if the opposition score more goals than you do!!!
What is going wrong?
We get near the goal or even on an overload we turn back to let the opposition get settled. We need to be fast and direct at goal. Make them chase the ball back to their goal.
Our finishing against teams that we should beat is woeful. We insist on trying to score from inside the 6 yard box.
I’m not expecting to get anything from the derby now. We have played 2 PL teams lately and failed to score on both occasions.
Carry on like this and we will be lucky to finish in the top 6.
