Is it time to panic yet?

[Corky]

Frank Clark was the best, " WELL I DONT KNOW. "

Alan Ball needed 3 years to turn it around, after a few months it became 5.

 

[Corky]

only when you're in Detroit

Let me collect dust.

I raise you rock city.

 

[onceabluealways]

To answer the question - It depends if you consider missing out on top four worthy of panic.

What makes you think pep is a good judge , when it comes to buying players , he keeps playing fucking BILKO in goal !

To be honest, we won't know until at least he's had the whole of next season, I was never going to judge him too harshly this season because the players are mostly not his buys.

But that excuse may not exist for him next year.

 

[Eaglechief]

Let's make no mistakes, the last 5 years was, or should have been, our dynasty. Instead, and because of this Barca obsession, we failed to back and then removed Mancini and then replaced him with a underfunded stopgap Yes Man Pelligrini. All of course so we could bring in Guardiola, who is proving to be the epitome of the phrase 'be careful what you wish for!'

Gross over indulgent mismanagement of the finest order.

Spot on my friend!

My take:
We will seal top 4 with a couple of games to spare, end up finishing 3rd.
Probably lose to monaco, they are a good young team
Win the fa cup
Gut the squad. Keep stones, de bruyne, sterling, sane, jesus. The rest are not safe

As I said a few weeks ago, when Pep resorts to asking a stuffed horse to pick his team, formation and tactics for him then I'll start to panic.

 

[robbieh]

Spot on my friend!

I remember Pelle saying something like that. And at the moment Pep is making MP look like a football genius.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Yes.

We are actually worse than under Pellegrini last season and we only just scraped Top 4 then.

'The Big Plan' we were all so excited about has been the biggest anti-climax in football.

'All our eggs in one basket syndrome' in full effect.

Guardiola is the biggest silver spoon merchant in world football and it's time a lot of Blues admitted that to themselves.

 

[roy.or.r]

Well its just depressing when I visit the ragcafe website. We have become a laughing stock there. At the start of the season, I used to visit that place a lot just to see their fear and even unwilling acknowledgement at how we played. But now, they have the b***s to ridicule us even more than the scousers.

 

[Dave Dave]

Probably. It's a Top 4 race for sure from now on. I'm sure we'll make it in.

 

[fatbloke]

We have the basis of a very good team but you're only as good as your weakest link and that at the moment is a complete lack of pace, energy and competitive edge in midfield and from our fullbacks. A couple of quick, young and hungry players in the summer transfer window will transform the team, squad and way we play just like Klopp needed a year or so with Liverpool to get the blend he wanted. Even then it's going to take time to get that consistency.

This site is just full of fanny flapping fuck nuggets who only think about the present.

Sorry pal, yer barred. No common sense on here tonight.

 

[BlueAnorak]

Nope. We aren't going to qualify for the CL. We've been poor for a long while now.
So give the kids a chance. You never know we may save some mney during the summer.

Are you on medication? You fcukin should be after this comment.

 

[dubblue]

Khaldoon said 6 months ago the bare minimum he expects is Champions league qualification and that last season wasn't good enough. He also said Sheikh Mansour is the most optimistic he has been in expectation of this season since the takeover. They can't be happy with how things have gone,it's been unacceptable. Will they panic?..No. Will they pull the trigger if we are out of the title race this time next year?..Yes. One thing is for sure there will be pressure on Pep to deliver next season that he will never have experienced.

 

[01cravend]

We're going to turn into Arsenal and perenially finish 4th

Lets be honest though you could of said the above back in 2014

 

[Yates]

In terms of this season maybe but long term, nope. If Pep signs a bunch of mard arses in the summer to replace the others then maybe I will but full confidence in Pep adding the right players to the existing bunch to create a quality side.

 

[Bobbymanc]

There is no reason to panic we can still get into the top four, progress in both the FA and Champs Cup. We have one of the best managers in the world, supposedly, so the future is not to bad. Next season will be a lot better, I hope.
