I did, thought and said he was a brilliant signing and cheap at that price. He went under the radar at Bournemouth because of who he played for. THB is nowhere near his level and would be even further away had he stayed with usHow about when we bought Ake for £40M from Bournemouth? I don’t remember any ringing endorsements of that deal, do you? Thankfully, he has done well when fit, but these players are all the same age profile, so they look like they all need replacing at the same time! Where’s the continuity? The changing of the guard?
Haaland looks like a frustrated figure, like me at five a side he's thinking I'm way too good to play with these donkeysHaaland and Foden have been the biggest disappointments on the pitch for me this season. Haaland had absolutely no impact on last night’s game whatsoever. None. Even when crosses were going in he was a beat behind. The heat is all going to players who aren’t all that experienced - Rico - or are ageing out - Kyle - with both playing in areas most affected by injury. Haaland and Foden have no such excuse. They aren’t scoring enough, simples.
We can be 3 nil up.You’re not wrong, how much worse can we be if we give 1/2 of them the odd game here and there.
Ahem, one quadruple and one quintuple.Ahem, two trebles.
Six titles mate.Pep is the greatest manager I’ve seen in my lifetime. I have full trust he will fix the issue.
However, if he’s gone full Mourinho and lost the magic he comes across as a man who will do the best for the club.
He’s given us 5 titles, the Champions League and a treble.
He’s earned the right to choose when he goes after what he has done for us.
Pretty much agree on what is needed but the Guys we bring in should be of the quality of immediate starters -we’ve pissed away the option of bringing players in as understudies etc in the last few Transfer Windows. No more Nunés type signings.Getting top 4 and winning the court case would be a good season. With the CWC prize money it’s probably the ideal season to drop out of the CL if the rot continues.
Personally I think we need four key players in January and the summer. The spine of this team moving into next season should be Dias, Gvardiol, Rodri, Bernardo, Foden and Haaland. I think we need a proper right back, creative midfielder, holding/box to box midfielder and a wide player. Without sounding spoilt I’m talking players with the ability to replace Gundogan, KDB and Walker long To be getting term.
Potentially also a new goalkeeper as well and let Ederson go to Saudi
Well, to be fair, I think things have gone seriously downhill since they agreed the contract.

Chris Wood won’t be!Notts Forest will be kicking themselves that we beat them :)
Oh, the shame!!!
I felt pretty much the same and my Bald Dome would also have been a mess but fortunately I had a hat on. What sort of complaints would there have been had he stood there shrugging his shoulders or laughing or similar? He’s intense and critical when we’ve just won 6-0.I’m not sure if it continues like this.
You can see the strain on his face and the toll it took on him against Feyenoord when he scratched his head to bits.
If it carry’s on I won’t be surprised if he walks.
Bang on, just look at when we replaced Yaya, Fern and Silva with Gundogan, Rodri and KDB. Quality replaced with quality. Nunes couldn’t lace De Jongs bootsPretty much agree on what is needed but the Guys we bring in should be of the quality of immediate starters -we’ve pissed away the option of bringing players in as understudies etc in the last few Transfer Windows.

Do you have the PowerBall numbers for this weekend?I did, thought and said he was a brilliant signing and cheap at that price. He went under the radar at Bournemouth because of who he played for. THB is nowhere near his level and would be even further away had he stayed with us
Lol. I'll concede that it's an uphill struggle.Nuh-uh! We lost 4 games on the bounce before the contract extension, we won one and drew one since and lost two since. That's going uphill, right.
Domestic quad, too.Six titles mate.
Yes, we. Will.We fall to the middle of the pack. I doubt we can fall to relegation zone. We'd be between 5 and 11 is my guess.
I think we'll be better vin January. Even without additiond. Especially if the injuries clear up a bit. But we won't be good enough to challenge for any cups or top 4 without some changes to the system.
If we can’t manage to finish 4th, I’d rather continue to be wank and finish 7th or lower (but obviously above 18th!) so we finish outside the Europa League/Europa Conference qualification places.We fall to the middle of the pack.

Can’t be arsed with Sunday PL games next season because we’re in those second and third rate comps.
Apologies. I won’t lie I forgot about the domestic treble.Ahem, two trebles.
