Cancelo off . 3 at the back Rodders into midfield and Alvarez on . C’mon pep positive !!!

 

[Chi-town blues]

Well..the good news is it cannot be worse than that and thankfully it is 0-0 only...

they look more dangerous in counter then us.

 

[super_city_si]

[mosssideblue]

Nice to see early subs

Bet we will smash this lot on Sunday when it doesn't really matter typical City lol

Probably play the same formation again although a host of changes ..

 

[Mariosfireworks]

They wouldn't because they wouldn't have had the ball. They also play in completely different positions.

Yes they would because they would have come deep and demanded the ball, and make something happen

Pep loves rico

Foden has been isolated for the full half. No one near him, we have played everything down the right trying to overload that side. Rodri is having to drop into the back line to make it a four when we are out of position, th accommodate Cancelo playing wide right. KDB is being given the free role and it does not suit him ala Belguim he is better when he has more responsibilty. Gundog is not being allowed to make runs into the box.
Pep has a record of trying to do things differently against Chelsea and it does not always work. What I don't follow is that he can see its not working but does not appear to it during the game.

Formation, really? The formation makes all our players to lose all the challenges? Formation makes that all our players miss easy passes? Ee can talk about formation, but people need to start putting some responsability on the players too

Evening Pep:-)
