Walker not working in midfield will mean Pep will persist with it until it does.

Madness just madness

Walker & Stones not got a clue what they're supposed to be doing and it's slowing the whole team down.

That was fucking woeful.

Remember when Stones and Dias could defend? Good times them.

Moving Kyle Walker into the midfield is a fucking disaster and needs fucking off as a matter of urgency. Why would you take our least technical player (at 32 years old) and decide that he needs to see more of the football? Nobody in the history of football has said “we need to get Kyle Walker on the ball more”. It’s a fucking braindead move and actually removes him from the things he is good at, as he is never in position when the opposition break anymore.

8 goals conceded in 2-5 games of course that includes the Barca friendly but still worrying..

And all the goals conceded at the back end of last season...2 v Villa, 2 v WHU, 6 in 2 games v Real Madrid. The warning signs have been there for some time now.

 

[PJM1891]

5 changes at HT.

Show the team that this level is unacceptable

I'd be shocked if there is more than 1.

Foden is trash .. not the future ballon dor winner we hoped .

Another deli Ali imho

 

[01cravend]

Kev passing and crossing to ghosts

 

[Mancityus]

Thank you ref and linesman, but for them we would be in bigger trouble.

 

[Phoenix900000]

Not a single shot on target awful

If Kyle playing as Pirlo is the answer, I don't even want to know what the question is.
