You questioning Peps judgement?

Dont put words in my mouth. Im saying what I've seen for the last 4/5 league games with him playing where he is, he looks lost.

Can't get a steam : (

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

For many years we've heard that the team playing us will be the happier at half time if it's 0-0. Today that's us.

I’m quite happy if we can nick a goal 95+ mins if necessary.

Don’t want another loss though

 

[Bluesince1979]

Cant have lewis and alvarez both playing. Midfield is piss weak

 

[Bluemoonie92]

Love alvarez but he should be taken off at ht, what ever the plan is it's not working

 

[youngbob]

Have a solid back 4. Have Rico drop back with Stones as he's entirely ineffective as a cam. Then allow Bernie to play more narrow instead of providing the width as he's not seeing the ball at all.

Yep, this is the one for me. Got to get Bernardo central and next to Stones.

Spent all season accommodating walker and alvarez
Hurting us now

 

[hertsblue]

Absolutely no shape to our team, v a team playing a back 4 and 4 in the middle ie doing the basics and not playing a CB at left back, right back in midfield, CB in midfield.
No idea why Pep is messing about still with this formation as its not working and we have a lack of quality in the squad to pull it off.
We will be miles off the top this season if he persists with this and its a serious worry how poor our squad is currently looking

It’s my job to make stupid comments tonight.

You've got some competition tonight

City fans can't tell me with a straight face that if Foden was playing as Alvarez has through the middle over the last month and a half, Pep wouldn't have dropped him weeks ago, and tell us how he's lacking this that, and the other.
