Toothless. Get Steffen, Zinchenko and Bernardo off. Ederson, Dias and Kdb on.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Must be the worst half of the season, but a couple of goalkeeping errors? My ERO is trying to pin the first on Zack, and the third was low down to his left - would have caused Joe Hart a bit of a problem! Scrub the last two and we are still in! After a fashion!!

It is what it is.
They knew Steffen couldn’t play it like Eddie and pressed very high on the back four from the start.
But where are the out balls to midfield. None.
The front four have been abysmal in effort, concentration, accuracy, decision making, pretty much everything.
Fern and Bernie have three on them every time they receive a ball and nobody to offload to.
They go backwards and invariably lose the ball. They’re too slow.

I honestly don’t care about losing this but I would rather lose 5-0 with the kids on than see this.

The front 3 and midfield 3 have all been a pauper toilet… should of just played some kids

Instead of replacing Fernandinho with a world class defensive midfielder the club decided to waste £100m on a player we didn't need and so far has done Jack shit (pun intended).

Yet half the clowns on here don't seem to understand that. It was obvious this was going to happen after Wednesday. Burnley would have beaten us today.

Nothing was expected other than pride, there’s heads down which is not what you would associate to this club… self inflicted and 2 of those goals are associated to Peps loyalty to the fundamental part of how we play, it’s targeted from minute 1!

I mean it kinda is.. considering we had 2 days and travel. And before athletico we had Liverpool where our players gave it all. Sooooooo yea man they are not robots come on

Absolutely,

It wasn't all Steffen. None of them look arsed tbh

With the exception of Stones they have all had a Steffen that half.

Win or lose on the booze

What does grealish do? I’m not hating on him, just want it explained to me

Nothing in a Pep line up.

That is increasingly becoming an issue for others too.
