Silva and a center back off

Pep needs to sort this out. He's picked the wrong team. Need more trickery against these park the bus teams

better balltempo is whats needed... move it around faster!!! Brighton has it easy as it is now defending..

Too much playmaking onus being placed on our least creative players (back three and Fernandinho) with this setup.

We haven't been good or bad, but there's been some embarrassing posts on here so far.

Only City could have 77 per cent possession but give 2/3rds of the fouls conceded.

 

[Bozo]

Their fans are a right bunch of wankers.

my nerves are ready. I'd need them, it looks.

They're hardly playing football, we hardly have an answer to it.

3 at the back when Danilo is your LB just won't work, he has no left foot so their full back just shows him onto it. When Mendy is fit it will probably work but until then we need some wingers on.

Sterling for Aguero and Bernardo for Silva please.
