Bang on. So many supporters are hung up on this, being stuck in a nostalgic whirlpool. It's time to rectify the here and now whilst planning for the future.

Certainly not, but some of our fans will never criticise, no matter how poor the performances.No one is denying what we’ve achieved. That doesn’t mean the current performances are acceptable does it?

Until the substitutions it felt more like the Sparta Prague game with City slowly running the opposition into the ground and fresh legs accelerating the process.
All a bit dour but effective nonetheless.
It made sense to conserve some energy for Sunday but equally you'd expect a few instructions such as "Nothing stupid" or "Keep the ball"
Instead we seemed to go a bit self indulgent with the game not quite won and nobody seemingly quite sure if we were killing time or going for a 4th.
I felt really sorry for McAtee and Pusey as everything around them crumbled so spectacularly

Gundo signing was just shortsighted…….Gundo will not get another deal. Akanji I like but feel he has to play with Dias.
RB isn't for him. I see him in that central MF area buzzing around, passing and keeping things moving. Hopefully his defensive qualities can improve alongside that.Agreed, rico is a young lad that’s had plenty of decent minutes in his short career. It’s inevitable he’ll have dips in form with his age. It’s completely compounded by the whole team/squad being out of form and kamikaze defending. I’m not a fan of him playing two roles atm either. RB and playing inside. Think he needs to master one or the other. At least for the short term. I’m convinced in a double pivot he’d be ok alongside a more experienced player and without trying to cover RB at the same time.

The lack of knowledge can be put down to so many people not studying Monty Python.What does shagged out mean?
See the parrot sketch:
That parrot is definitely deceased, and when I purchased it not 'alf an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it bein' tired and shagged out following a prolonged squawk.

At the risk of repeating myself ad nauseam, I keep saying this. But honestly, I'd put a bit of a question mark over your third sentence, if only because I can't think of a player in the world who is at one and the same time an accomplished full back, playing at the highest level (EPL and CL), and an accomplished midfielder, playing at the same level. Can you?
I'm presuming he's told to do that by Pep. He surely wouldn't take the initiative on his own. Well, it can't be done.
It's pining for the fyoords!The lack of knowledge can be put down to so many people not studying Monty Python.
