Fulham (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

First thing. Pep, sack the whole of the defensive coaching staff, absolute joke defending again!
And two, sack yourself for yet again playing a spineless fucking none entity of a so called winger! OK, I'm joking about the Pep sacking bit, but fucking hell, if anybody thinks we can win the league defending like this then you're very much disillusioned. Great things from Phil, Haaland and The judge, but we really need to look at our coaching staff because its becoming an all too familiar thing these defensive brain parts. How the fuck can we be hanging on like that after being 5-1 up. Baffling!
 
This was embarrassing! With this defending and spaces outside the box was horrible. As where peps subs but in 5-2 I would think the game would be overlap can’t really blame him. But this shows our players besides those who start is terrible stones hade dreadful sub, Savinho has only him self in mind no thoughts on defending and do what’s best for the team.

But there was good things in this game also
Foden was good he is back to the old self, Nico, Doku was Good, great for Haaland get his 100 so now ha can let that go. 3 points away on Fulham is really good to bad the poor defending that was showed will be the one to talk about.
 
This version of City, reminiscent of Jack and Hyde, is pathetic. Has Pep lost his touch? Why are opposing managers outplaying him in the second half? With such a weak defensive performance from all the defenders, this version of City is too weak to compete for any title. We almost drew against Leeds and now against Fulham. The team's situation and Pep's situation worry me. Even his substitutions doesn't help the team to improve.
 
Will need to up my high blood pressure medication after that. Mental second half. Need to process that defensive meltdown. A wins a win but can’t take a season of games like that at my age. Need some grit in midfield got outmuscled and overrun in second half.
 
Let's give Fulham some credit for 4 excellent goals and it was very entertaining. Pep needs to do something with the formation if he's protecting a lead and think about the personal he swaps a bit more.

It got to the point where Silva was the only one thinking clearly towards the end the panic was a sight to behold.
 
Not sure what to make of that, reaffirms my personal thinking that we will not be winning the league this year, top 4 and CL qualification is our priority.
Some great stuff but some absolute shit last 20 minutes.
Erl should have made it 6-2 with a simple header and after that we fell to pieces.
Again, midfield completely vanished 2nd half after 5-2, we need some serious steel in there.
Not impressed with GK last 30 minutes.
How many corners do we concede every game? Problem is, we look like conceding with too ma ny of them.
Some hilarious virtue signalling from the usual happy clappers at 5-1....oddly, they all disappeared when it got to 5-3.
And as for Pep, Savinho is not the player to bring on when we are under the cosh. His recent subs have been baffling

I thought stones was going to come on for bernardo and help nico shore up the middle. Then Nick went off ans I was like WTF did you just do?
Cherki can keep the ball, he came on way too late.

Yeah he is closest to what he had in Grealish. Grealish comes on at 5-2 and it's a lot easier as mad as that sounds.

Not sure why Savinho is taking all the flak tbh. The whole team was a mess.

Easy target but let's face it, his contribution is nil when he comes on from the bench and many of us would like to see Marmoush given more minutes. I agree the team was a mess, the gaping holes in midfield were there and not only all second half and Guardiola did nothing about it. It's not the only game this is so. The defence is all over the place and why do we continue to concede so soon after we score. That's fundamental to defending.
