Leicester City v City post match.

[SWP's back]

Thought about stand up?

Not enough money in it.

I wonder when Pep will realise that to win the PL you need a good defence. When City won the 2 titles in 2012 and 2014 we had a settled defence - mostly playing together. Zabba , Komps. , Joleon and Clichy/Kolorov. Now time has caught up with all the back 4.
Komps. will probably retire - Kolorov and Clichy are past their best. Our attack with Sergio , Silva , Dzeko , etc. carried us to the titles.
Pep will now have to sort this glaring weakness out.

It didn't start as that it was 3, with Zab and Fernando in front, he changed after 3 minutes, by when the game had been lost unfortunately. The fact he changed it so early says it was wrong, unfortunately we had the wrong players on the pitch to play either 3 or 4 at the back, and as a result we conceded 3 in 20 minutes in a shambolic performance.

I'm pretty sure it was three all first half.

Return to the team and formation that won the first 10 games of the season? It makes far too much sense.

We can't, 2 of them are banned for at least 2 mores games ;-)

There is if you have the right talent, and not afraid to do a different routine every now and then, and not expect to go with the same jokes every week

The worst part for me wasn't the defeat, it was conceding after just 2 minutes.

We know our defence is as shaky as Michael J Fox sat on a washing machine and we are thinking we must have worked on this during training, and then the very first attack we go one down.

We can see it, why can't Pep.

He can.

He didn't tell 3 blokes to stand & watch when the ball comes toward them.

So who's looking forward to the Arsenal and Liverpool games?

People trying to fit in a 'system' reason for three fucking defenders stood still doinv fuck all, it's just bollocks.

These people are defending like shit & not doing their jobs is why the yoals are being conceded.

It started particularly v Celtic & it's been the same since. It doesn't matter if it's 3 or 4 at the back, these people have to take responsibility & fucking defend.

They are not good enough & changing our way of playing in order to make up for it, is a stupid idea. They will still let goals in & we will have to change the midfield as well & that probably won't work either.

We had 4 fucking players v 2 for the first goal, everybody was there for the 2nd. It was the same v Celtic & the same v Spurs. That's not a counter attack caused by over attacking, it's just shit play. Leicester created chances when we were all back or when we were all forward. It makes no difference. The players are in position to defend. They need to do it.

I get on people's cases about the mistakes we were making tonight when I play 8 a side on a Monday evening.

The key difference being I play with amateur footballers. These are professional footballers.

It is literally school boy errors. Not doing the basics. Tracking runners, keeping a shape etc etc.

Bless. I suppose it depends on your starting position.
