Phillips first start, didn't realise he was so wank. Been dry bumbed by Leeds.
Special mention for Gomez's passing...

Weak link atm. Gives it away too often and is always out of position and no defensive skills. Team as we know needs proper full backs, not Gomez, Cancelo etc.
But the squad could be the weakest its been for some time, our CB’s seem to be constantly injured, full backs woeful, no pace in midfield and no Rodri is a huge fall off in standards.
But lots on Pep constantly putting square pegs into round holes, changing the back 4 every week and baffling stuff like inverted full backs.

The inverted fullbacks and constant changing of back 4 does feel needless. Hopefully we can turn this around but Pep has a job on get our tempo and shape right for second half. Lavia looks a lad we should’ve maybe tried to hold on to.

This type of performance seems to be occurring more frequently

Why play so slow hen the opposition are running around like finely tuned athletes

 

[Victorinodennistua]

We were so far off it after 5 minutes I got 7-1 on Southampton

If we get 3 quick goals ( which I can’t see 1 coming) then we might still be in this.

So disappointing after the way we played against Chelsea

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Lavia has the higher ceiling that Kalvin.

So does Rico…-at 17

 

[Platt Lane veteran]

What pisses me off about this, more than anything, is it now gives the Rags free reign to go on and win a trophy.

 

[Bald fraud]

Lavia has the higher ceiling that Kalvin.

Yep
