Bob tried to replace him with Savic & almost cost us the title. Just a continuation imo. Then tried that 3 cb shite pre season when our fullbacks couldn't play it, & we started the season with a lax badly drilled defence. He ruined his own good work after spending all that time working on it imo. I think Pellegrini will do the same unless he really puts about 7 days hard work in now. It's a fucking shambles.That always baffled me, we won the title with Kompany and Lescott and the next season he hardly got a kick, was there ever any revelations of any shit going on behind the scenes between Mancini and Lescott.
Spain is piss easy imo. Apart from when you play Barca or Real Madrid.Must admit mate will be interesting how Savic does at Athletico
RM had 3 hours less travelling time......please, let me clutch at my straws so I dont go down the were shit path, please!Fatigue! The season hasn't started yet. When you fly first or business class it is not tiring, you get off the plane fresh. The seat changes into a bed, it is not cattle class and you are not fatigued. Funny how RM were not fatigued.
Totally agree we are clearly not shit defensively.
We have faced 3 European teams in pre season and only conceded 10. I don't know what people expect sometimes.
I would suggest no one thinks we are crap at defending but like all things it is relative and as we are competing with Chelsea last year then that is our barometer as is our record with similar personnel over the preceding seasons. We did fall short in a number of games last year and finished with the fifth best defensive record which is a bit of an anomaly for a team finishing second.
Hahaha, don't be a **** all your life, have a day off
Unless it's slipped your mind this whole forum has talked about Pep coming for 12 months and nearly everyone to a man wants him here and now preferably.
Wipe your fanny you slavering twat and take your head out of your arse.
Atletico could easily beat us though.Spain is piss easy imo. Apart from when you play Barca or Real Madrid.
Well we'll have to differ on that. I said quite quickly that I thought he was too slow, soft as shite & shit in the air & predicted he'd probably be gone round about now. Having said that, he would struggle to be as shit as Vinny was today. But so would Phil Jones.I must admit I saw Nastasic differently. For a 19 year old, walking into a new league I thought he did fantastically well. Even seasoned internationals like Silva took longer to settle
I agree that 3 CB shite never worked but he persisted with it causing his own downfall in the end and like you say Pelle and the coaching staff have got a lot to do if they are to get the defence back on track in the coming weeks, might get away with it against West Brom, not in game 2 though.Bob tried to replace him with Savic & almost cost us the title.
