‘Squad cracks’? Are you having a laugh? Best squad in the league…

Oh yeah because we were flush with natural strikers before haaland come in. Cant tell if you trolling honestly.

How has Cancelo got so bad?

He has spells like this every season.

He was absolutely brilliant in that wining run in 2020-21 yet ended the season terribly, especially in those defeats to Leeds and United at home. And he’s been like that since then: great for three months, average for three months, great for three months…

wooooa there's City! Just need to score next time.

It'll be an absolute travesty if we get anything from this game. We've been outclassed in every area.....here's hoping though

This is fucking shite. I hate this newfound way of playing craving control. I’d understand if it had been proven to work for us but it hasn’t. It’s replaced electric, high-tempo football and made us boring to watch. Winds me up.

Besides that we haven't actually got any control.

Its all well and good buying these expensive foreign stars but can they do it on a cold wet January night in Hampshire - as it stands it seems not

Given ourselves too much to do.

Start your best team and then make changes.

No excuse with five subs.

That first half Pep Brain fart from Pep gave them a 2-0 lead to hang on to grim death for

The Big Guns are now trying to force it way too much.

This is on Pep.

I sincerely hope his secret plan for the Derby gets shelved.

And we play to our strengths rather than taking risks to feed Pep inner Genius.

Can we sub off Cancelo and just replace him with nobody, would be an improvement.

Funny this…just a year ago he was the best full back in the league…

 

[kun]

Shocking all round

It's the league cup people, chill the fuck out!!!

Tell pep that with his stupid subs
