2012. Six games remaining, eight points adrift of utd. With an arguably inferior XI to what we have now.

lol

 

[FantasyIreland]

A combination of poor play by us,our star players not producing,a bit of bad luck,shithousery by Everton,poor in game management and abysmal officiating.

Its a fucking strange season.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Not sure. Just wonder what kind of mind games he thinks he’s playing.

Playing them with himself... and winning.

 

[Mike N]

Surely has to stop this Mahrez and Grealish on the wings. It’s not working. It’s slow, turgid and very easy to defend against.

It’s the set-up for an away game. Absolutely amazed he started those two today.

What is clear is we are / were a better team without an out and out striker , we’ve become a lazy team with half the hunger to score goals throughout the team

Yep. I don’t think today’s result is a particularly good indicator of anything, apart from the officiating we should expected moving forward.

 

[jimharri]

well if we win it's all on Pep, funny that .
we are still in December and the title is out of our hands . let that sink in.
we are miles weaker than last season .
Pep can't stop us being cheated but he can put players out who can combat it.

I'm surprised at you waving the white flag Bill.

 

[Lavinda Past]

?

Forgotten them already Jim?

Good man

 

[MadchesterCity]

Make no mistake. Since Pep arrived this is the weakest squad we've had at the club. Haaland, Kev and Bernardo are fantastic, but the rest is a mess. We've got two actual fullbacks, our wide options can't stretch the pitch and we have zero legs in the middle.

It's total arrogance to end up with such a small squad in such a competitive league.

We're not playing our best players, it doesn't help, wtf must Foden be thinking

I think we need to buy a top pacey winger in January and get Foden, Haaland, Alvarez and KDB on pitch together

We need to buy a winger, someone with pace and physical strength who can mix things up a bit and get behind teams.

Yaya was of course a genius of a player who could have played for any team in the world, but very often it was his physical presence and pace rather than any brilliant play which got us a goal and the three points. Apart from Haaland, we don’t have that in the team at the moment.
