[I'm Blue]

First time I've started to doubt Pep. Especially, after the post match comments, beyond deluded.

His opinions he gives to the media are totally different to what he gives to the players.
He’s between a rock and a hard place at the minute in how he treats the players imo.
If he goes out and criticises the players to the media then there’s a chance they might stop playing for him.
They still are unlike what some believe.
From the outside though that’s exactly what it looks like it needs.
I thought we put some effort in today but unfortunately our lack of creativity and our stupid mistakes is costing us the 3 points we need to play our way out of this current shitshow.
We need fresh creative players and players with energy.
Echeverri and Bobb coming back would be a start and then getting a few more in the door in January, as well as a few out the door.

And replace him with who?

Fuck me, I said "doubts" calm down.

 

[SWPISHOME]

How the fuck are we left to defend 2 on 4 in the dying seconds. We're all over the fucking shop

It's concerning that we've been caught with this numerous times this season alone and yet we still continue to get caught with it...

It's incredibly shit.

I propose one of the training cones at the mo, probably be more effective. Needs to have a long hard look at himself, stop with the soundbites and actually put in the effort he keeps talking about. They all do.

Let's face it every other manager in the prem would've been out on their arse if they'd been on our current run of form. If Pep isn't backed this January and our results don't pick up I think he'll walk at some point

The results are to do with Pep though. 1 win in 13.

Funny how when we win its all down to Pep but now were in a shocking run of form its all down to the players. Same story every week. Cant have it both ways.

I don’t think when we win it’s all down to pep. And normal person will say it’s the players. He might have an idea here and there sure. But it’s the players that are on the field and execute the game. Score the goals, make last ditch tackles, etc.. not pep.

Similar pattern to previous games. Lots of possession but of no real concern to the opposition to defend against. No tempo or urgency in our play.

The mobility of the midfield is a major concern and none of them look like scoring. Give O’Reilly an opportunity and see what he can do.

When you see a 36 year old RB in Seamus Coleman the last thing you expect is to see Doku playing inside. Genuinely unbelievable.

These squad players we have are fine to have when the spine of the team is there. ATM we don’t have a spine and all we’re seeing is average footballers throwing up some utter shite performances. This has been coming but the spine of the team drove the standards and saw us through. That’s completely gone now and what we’re seeing is what’s left

No other manager has done in the pl what he has for us…
