We may already have his replacement within the club and im not talking Rodri.

I reckon Stones will make a solid DM allowing a Dias-Laporte CB pairing. Sorry but Rodri isn't good enough as our DM, IMHO.

I reckon you’re wrong.

He would get considerably less time and space to operate as a DM, and the strengths of Rodri & Ferna are absent Stones’ game.

He is a natural right sided central defender and best suited there.

Personally I’d like to see us play a back 3 of Stones - Dias - Laporte, with Ake and THB as the left & right (respectively) back ups to that line up.

With Walker down the right and A.N. Other down the left, one DMs (Rodri/Ferna), and 3 AMs (KDB-IG-PF) in behind a new focal point striker, I think we would be much more solid defensively, because we look most suspect with runs through the FB-CB channel, with our own FBs able to roam up and down the wings.

It wo g happen with Mahrez, Sterling, Bernardo and Torres, but it should on occasion!
 
Dave got just six mins in the worse game we had under Pep. The team needed him. It was his last appearance in a blue shirt.

Same story for Sergio in an even worse performance. Not starting him was bad enough, to bring on Jesus before him was ridiculous.

Baffling selections. Piss poor treatment.

Nothing to do with testimonials or statues.

Being a know-it-all in hindsigth is not very convincing.

Typical. Echo chamber cult. I’ve put the hard yards in as a fan and am entitled to praise and criticise as I see it.

This isn’t Pep FC is it. He’s paid big money to make big calls and when he fucks it up royally (Lyon, Chelsea x 2 etc.) deserves calling out for it.

Should have started Silva v Lyon - best midfield player at the club.

Should have started Sergio v Chelsea in the CL. Best striker at the club, talisman and probably the most fired up for the game.

Should have started Ferna v Chelsea. Defensive rock, club captain and leader.

All major major fuck ups.

You can’t prove the counter factual in sport, but Im not being wise in handsight all this was obvious eat the time.

The trouble with forums is that it’s members are often reluctant to listen to views that differ from their own.

If you’re not happy to vocally criticise people for stupid mistakes that cost the club very dearly and could have been avoided then that’s your look out.

Pep is great, he’s a hugely successful manager for us. But he’s made some terrible decisions too and nobody seems bothered, or bothered enough to ask why?

My view is that it’s not enough for him to win by playing his best team, but that he has a need to add a personal dimension to the equation.

Hopefully he’ll get treated with more respect than Dave and Sergio

All our players have been treated well - despite a the fact we’re a successful football club & have to take tough decisions to win things. Which is why you’re not a manager. Fans aren’t able to make objective decisions.
As for Kun - he was always carrying an injury - only sub for Argentina even now
