Lyon CL QF Post-Match Thread

[Bazzmand Show]

Pep is not perfect but Pep is not the problem.

Since he's been at the club we've been one of the highest spending teams in Europe - yet we've not made it to a CL semi final. Regardless of how you want to spin it, it;s nowhere near good enough and even Pep would admit that.

I just think he doesn't have it in this competition anymore.

Pep stated in the Centurions season that we had to be better in both boxes....catches win matches,goals win games !!

The more I see that second goal the more livid I am. We were wank but come on thats a fucking foul. Screwed over again.

Flat track bullies sums us up. For me we are in a whole load of shite and I think Guardiola is so dominant that he's stifling to the players own thought processes. There comes a time for all managers when a change is needed and I'm beginning to feel this has ran its course.

“Flat track bullies” you say. We’ve just beaten LiVARpool 4-0 and Real Madrid 4-2 and lost to Southampton and Lyon. That my friend is the exact opposite of a flat track bully

Sign the doughnut thief from the rags at least he does stop a few goals.

Wow.........

I think Pep will go this summer. Just a feeling.

Hope he does.

No doubt Pep got it wrong today but that does not excuse player errors. One of the reasons Pep tries different things like today is because the players can't always be relied on to go out and deliver in this competition. He's tried to compensate for their weaknesses rather than just playing to their strengths. The fact is he has come a cropper with both approaches. We need some new players to help Pep elevate us again.

I've not read this thread but if comments are anything like those on Twitter, it'll just have me shaking my head at the state of some of our supporters. Pep is not perfect but Pep is not the problem.

He is part of the problem imo.

So he needs to choose his path of real defending or Barca. Imo if it's A he'll be here for years, if it's B he'll be gone in a season or so.

Is it Pep’s fault Sterling misses from 3 years out? If that had gone in I think we would have won. Thought Sterling overall played well.

He did play well. It’s pep’s fault we wasted half the match due to his tactics though.

Laporte is slow as fuck. Rebuild needed

We've bought shit like Rodri last summer and are lining up an 80m Mangala impersonator.

Do u have confidence the club will get the right players?

I mean we're keeping Gundogan for a start though even if we tried to sell him he'd go missing so we couldn't.

Rodri, by the way.
