i just can't understand where that performance came from, i was expecting us to come out all guns blazing similar to the wolves game instead of the walking football we played
hungover?Trained Wednesday I think.
All well and good but, if Erling shoots 2 ft lower and Alvarez scores, as he usually does, we win the game and Pep is a genius. Football is nothing without a bit of jeopardy and, today, we came off second best.
Would I rather be in their position compared to ours? Not in a million fucking years….
Calm down. It was a rubbish day. No hiding it. I know about the bad times, I've been going since the mid 60sFfs, are you so entitled to think we win every game? Give it a rest, I've been to loads of away games with no expectation of winning and still had great days, it's the losing that makes the winning feel even better, 4 IN A ROW, let that sink in.
they just practised shotsTrained Wednesday I think.
The support Doku got in the early part of the second half was atrocious. He had no one to pass to so often and was on his own. It was so unlike us.
Our fan base needs to get a reality check as well… some of the moaning, bickering and a couple of fisty cuffs when it wasn’t going our way -Win or lose, it doesn't make the journey home from Wembley any quicker or slower.
Today pretty well summed up our season in many ways. Pedestrian build up, no movement, even being brainless at times. It was like watching a Subbuteo game. One player moving with the ball while the rest stopped still. Where is the incisive movement, the runs into the half channels? When Doku was on the balk, another player came over to double up with his marker. That left a gap in what used to be called the inside left channel for a City player to go into but no one moved for him and he had to do it all himself. Where was the movement and passing that led to Sané scoring that incredible goal at Arsenal? Where's the dynamism gone? I struggle to see how we won the title sometimes.
KDB has been a shadow of the player he was. Bernardo has been very pedestrian moat of the season Foden has carried us but had a very poor game today. And unless we were trying to help Poundland Pep keep his job, why start a very rusty Ake & Stones in a final? Haaland's technique, or lack of it, pisses me off, as well as his propensity to stroll around and exhibit no urgency to close down. You do wonder if too many players have become too complacent. Pep needs to look everyone in the eye this summer and decide if they've got the fight in them.
