Leeds (H) | Post Match Thread

If the game wasn’t important than the result and performance aren’t as well. Simple. And according to loads on here it wasn’t important.

Pep probably read BM in his 20 hrs study. And gathered it wasn’t a big deal by fielding too many players who are either out of form or without enough match minutes.

Leeds fought and fouled and defended. Nothing more they could do with 10 men. But we attacked without any ideas and a low tempo. So even for 10 it was easy to stay organised. And with enough breath to sprint for a winner that was always going to come.

100% sorry with that team today I knew what was coming

Well maybe you should replace Pep then?

Can't believe he didn’t put KDB on when Stones was getting so much space. Bizarre game but hopefully just an anomaly

City 27 shots
Leeds 2 shots

What Pep was thinking with Ake & Mandy together is baffling.
We were open all through the game
No guile or creativity in midfield
The less said about the front 3.....

That's football

Today exposed what we all know that, despite all the media hype, there are still plenty of weak spots in our squad. We have so much to do to get over the line in some of these competitions.
We are still very vulnerable down our left-hand side whatever formation we play. A lot of Pep's tactical changes today were just to compensate for this problem. The combination of Ake, Zin (who has been good this season mostly) and Mendy is just a disaster waiting to happen.

Weak spots? Lmaoo do you know how many changes we made? We didn’t play our strong lineup. Should we have won with these players yes on paper we should have but it happens. This is one of the strongest squads we have ever had. Our defense has been immense with Diaz. This season our defense is outstanding, so is our midfield. Only weakness we have is our strikers. We have none.

He hasn’t been at his best since 2019

He's had 1 good season since he's been with us.

Sterling and Mendy should be playing with the reserves

For someone else.
