Ah well, another standard (shite) performance at Klanfield - this time accompanied by a Pep brain fart.
No idea what he was attempting to achieve here. Nobidea at all.

 

[Rammy Blue]

No way it was a clear and obvious error, especially with a next phase of play.
It's used to manufacture results.

I disagree, foul all day for me. Fabinho had won the ball so of course it’s a free kick.

This. He holds his shirt. He's strong to pull him down to the ground. Very fucking strong.

 

[Blue and still suffering]

Only saw the last half hour but thought we were alright without being at our best. They played very deep relying on the long ball to win the game. My view is that we lost that game rather than them winning it through the mistake by Cancelo, tried to control it instead of just kicking it.
As an aside that Nunez is awful, Nevile and Tyler were ranting over him but twice in the last five minutes he had chances to play the ball through for either a one on one or a tap in but fucked up both times.

I know almost nothing about football, but by God surely you start in-form Grealish in that game.

You also bring on Cole Palmer at 75 mins IMHO, and take Haaland off. He could have played 900 minutes and not scores today. Give them something different to think about.

Kev on his best day is unplayable, this was one of his worst I'm sad to say.

Phil worked his socks off, Bernie is a fucking legend, terrible error for the goal, just terrible, it's a game to forget in almost all respects.

As to VAR? If that's the other way round no way do they even call the ref over. This has always been my problem with it.

If it was the other way around no way the replay of that goal would have gone back ten seconds to find an excuse to disallow the goal

 

[SWPISHOME]

I think it’s more the fact that we don’t have speed b
You need speed to beat them.

You need to play to your strengths to win football matches and we didn't do that today. It's nothing to do with speed, We were poor today especially in the final third. Numerous times we got in behind down the flanks and no end product. The one time we did put a terrific ball in was Foden and not a sinner in the box (apart from Dias) to tap it in.

Them long balls are why we miss the pace of Kyle Walker so much.

Walker is great on the recovery but often these balls were to feet, head. We just needed defenders who could defend properly. Dias was all over the show as well today. Guys form has dropped of a cliff.

 

[A57 the snake]

Yes it’s a massive disappointment , we feel it those 11 lads will feel-it even more we’ve had these clubs in the past with a mental block , Wigan, Sunderland and the rags … what we’ve overcome and that lot will be another one we’ll do the same to honestly we will.

Fourth time now in five years I’ll see you all in deansgate in may.

Square pegs in round holes, defensive injuries and poor recruiting in the full back areas

 

[Zenmanc]

And some say Gomez is the player no chance.

Yeah. We should sell him, he'll never amount to anything. We should drop 100m on the shiniest LB out there. FFS

Some here cry like babies when we lose it's so boring and tired. It's a fucking game. If it's more than that to you I hope you're at least on the payroll or live alone.
