Funny - he's the one who started to cop it after they went level, when actually he was the main one helping to barely hold it all together (argument for Ake too, decent).

The "modern" game is now about getting more penalties than your opponents.
Players are playing for them and refs think they've done their jobs by obliging and giving them.
Theres been 7 penalties in 7 prem games this weekend, says it all.
When did the game become so soft and poncey?
The death of football and it sickens me

Where to start ?
Mendy and Garcia should never start for this club again.
Rodri is now becoming a huge concern.
Pep should be getting more from the players.
Khaldoon/Txiki have failed Pep in the fact they have been negligent in ignoring our dire need for a LB, CM and forward.
Shambles. Battle for top 4 is on. Liverpool may win this league by more than 20 points this season.
cant argue with any of that.

sell Garcia while we still get some few ££ for him. Mendy is a give away.

That was a game of 2 halves and 3 penalties.
The club needs to make hard decisions.pep needs to decide if he wants to stay & the players need to commit to him & his tactics.no closing down & doing the hard work & the dirty work is what we were good at.sadly we haven’t had that for a few seasons
it’s all about the first 30 mins for me - take the lead, on top and opposition look like they worried about us. But as time goes on and we don’t get the 2nd they always grow in confidence and once they attack that back line of ours their belief rises and then it’s game on.
we have to be getting that 2nd goal

I’m not saying the defence is faultless, there’s very obvious problems there but performances and results like that All stems from the midfield.
we give players all the time in the world to play what is a fairly simple pass, of course they’re going to punish you. We got 100 points with stones and Otamendi playing the majority of the season and we did so because we had a mobile Fernandinho protecting us, now we have a vastly less mobile 35 year old Fernandinho and iron boots Rodri.
it’s no coincidence whatsoever that we always seem to concede from just one or two chances, it’s because we’ve allowed the opposition to have those chances uncontested. Our midfield is simply not mobile enough and it’s the biggest problem we’ve got above any other position in the squad.
Really doesn’t matter who we have in the back 4 when they’ve got Rodri exposing them so brutally. I don’t even blame Rodri himself, we should have seen how immobile he was and avoided him like the plague when we scouted him, he can’t magically get quicker we will always have this vulnerability whilst he’s the anchor in this side.

Nothing has changed, Wolves, United, Spurs, Arsenal , Norwich, Southampton, Lyon and now Leicester, we are in serious decline.
What is going on, we won that CAS case and we should have blown everyone out of the water with quality signings.
Ake and Torres not the quality the club need, we need to rebuild the spine with world class players.
Not had a good summer since Mancini
