Match Thread | Bournemouth vs. Man City (30/03/25)

Pep surely will take Phil and Gundo off at halftime

Gundo? Why? His been the best midfielder so far. Granted, he'd probably get worse as time goes on.

 

[the-ecstacy-of-eight]

was a bit late to the game
and when i turned on the tv
haaland missed a penalty, we lose one goal and never created more chances after

I'd appreciate it if you went back to doing what you were doing when you missed the first half of the match please mate, no offence or anything

 

[ProofMCFC]

The answer is easy

the players on the bench change nothing.....who on the bench replaces Gundo and KDB or Bernardo?

Nico OReilly? !!!! he is a young talent but he aint changing anything in this team....the players outwide dont sort the issues out which are in the centre of the pitch.

Grealish - what does he add centrally?

Marmoush doesnt change anything in the midfield...he just ends up isolated as our midfield dnt provide anything

Lewis just gets bullied

Gonzales? You know the player we just spent 50 mil on

I'm beginning to lose faith in Pep.

Its clear we need a rebuild, we bought a couple of players to help us and he benches them and played the same old players resulting in a tired lathargic performance.

Why Pep. Why!

 

[Keeper!]

I agree but what? More importantly how do we fix it?

Khaldoon, Viana and Pep need a very honest conversation

 

[Mr Partridge]

There just seems to be an air of indifference and "oh well" with our play. There's a real all round malaise at the moment and it's going to take some shifting.

That interview that Bernardo did with Paul Lake a while back was very telling. He basically said after winning the treble it wouldn't have mattered if he'd never won anything else. And that is exactly how he and a number of players have played this season. Everybody's just happy and content with what they've already achieved.

 

[Blueknows]

The misses were "bad" ? Understatement of the season.

And Eddy's positioning and lack of movement for their goal was terrible

 

[BigJoe#1]

Well in our house

Total madness.

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

Very good.

I don't know that one, can you hum it?

 

[homerdog]

Ian Wright would reduce the average age of our side

And increase the level of cuntishness by a factor of 10!

 

[dctid]

Been saying this for the last 6 months, but just get shouted down on here,, he can do no wrong in some eyes, well times up pep, thanks for the memories, even if we manage turn it round it's still time up

I think he will walk from my perspective it can’t happen soon enough

 

[Lavinda Past]

How many of you are City fans? 25% at best. Morons or rags.

Stop dreaming Marv. We're poor and have been for most of this season. Just not good enough.

 

[ScottSinclair]

I hope Fernandinho is joining the back room staff in the summer.
Cos performances like that need a bollocking at halftime.
Pep’s too nice to scream and shout so hopefully Fernandinho can oblige by telling them how shit, lazy and appalling they’ve been.
I get Pep not wanting to scream and shout incase the players really down tools, if they haven’t already, but these players need a rocket up their arses cos this kind of performance is quite simply unacceptable.

Nevermind the backroom staff. If he was here tomorrow Pep would be starting him at full-back against Leicester

 

[citymad]

We would have Forest in the semi so probably wouldn’t have reached the Final anyway.

 

[I'm Blue]

Understandable sub with this **** of a ref.

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

Not sure what Pep can do about Haaland’s misses and Nunes shizer play.

 

[avoidconfusion]

No winger on, our worst player still on the pitch…. Guardiola 2025

 

[super_city_si]

Ah well if we go out we can concentrate on finishing top 7

 

[give it to gordon]

Thanks ref a forced change because of your pathic yellow card
