Same players. Same ones all season. Josko and Rico need benching.

why cant pep and the other coaches see it. !

Gundo will not get another deal. Akanji I like but feel he has to play with Dias.

Gundo signing was just shortsighted…….

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.

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.

What does shagged out mean?

The lack of knowledge can be put down to so many people not studying Monty Python.

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 priority last night was not to lose btw.

Not with 20 minutes left it wasn't

 

[TinFoilHat]

I gave you a like, but, I don't like it!

I get what you mean

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Yet somehow, that's exactly what we did.


Guessing Pep is thinking of fitness status and risk of injury. Ake not long back and had a few injuries of late. 3-0 up nothing wrong with taking him off at that stage.

All the game needed was Joso Gvardiol and Ederson not to completely implode, but that's what happened.

He allowed any Feyenoord player out wide the Freedom of Beswick. I expected at one point a Dutch player herding a flock of sheep down the wing.

I just do not understand why seasoned internationals cannot defend in the most obvious and conventional way. Mind, after seeing us ship seven goals in four days what's 'obvious'?

The gamesmanship of Arsenal at The Etihad this season means I don’t want them anywhere near it.

Be a bummer if Liverpool win because, by and large, their fans are knobheads! But Arsenal are a disgrace and I can at least see Liverpool play good football.

I might change my mind on Sunday!!!

The dippers behaviour over the years means I never want them to win a single game, let alone a trophy.
