On my life which game are you watching? Gash

This game, who's been bet tree r then Sterling today? The only player who's been positive and created half decent moments...

 

[citysince88]

We have basically sacrificed this season with the hope of getting Guardiola

No mate, Pellegrini was always place holder for pep.

 

[Bluemanc100]

Pellegrini is the perfect example of somebody who should have retired but didn't have the balls

 

[SWP's back]

Bayern Barca and Real exist in leagues poles apart from the PL - you can't compare. Chelsea - well they are doing well on it this season aren't they?

And Newcastle are doing shite as well. Good point. Let's keep Pellegrini

 

[Blueband Brother]

Very poor.

 

[kippaxking79]

What did he say against Liverpool. It's impossible to play as bad?

Well we've done it again today Pellers. Now do everyone a favour and fuck off!!!

Wrong team today - can only blame the manager. Everyone on here could see the problem after 5mins and he didn't act - can only blame the manager. Finally came to making some changes and he takes off the wrong Fern - can only blame the manager.

There's only one thing to do following that assessment and as much as I hate to admit it, he has to go now. Would prefer Brian to caretake for the rest of the season than let him stay any longer.

 

[Summerbuzz]

Indeed it is :)

However, it just mirrors the performance we've seen today.

To be honest, I don't know how I would have coped with this performance without this outlet. It's been like group therapy.

And this shower got beat by Sunderland last week.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

De Bruyne has played much like Nasri generally does away from home. Pusillanimous.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

The happy clappers keep defending Pellegrini saying "we're top of the league, qualified for the knockouts of the CL, in the semis of the League Cup." Well, tonight we'll be 4th, we'll be out of the CL as soon as we face a quality side, and we might win the league cup. Or we might not. But who cares? It's the league cup. The warning signs have been there for a while now, but the happy clappers don't seem to have the ability to spot it.

 

[Bad Santa]

Yes, but he always seems to choose the wrong option at the end.

You could say the same for many players today though

 

[Burtonblue]

Pellegrini has been tactically outmanoeuvred by Hughes.
Says it all...

 

[Credo]

We should have lost 4 nil.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

Bollocks.... KDB will be stellar with the right guidance

Sterling the same

Give it a wipe fella

I know they will. I was just saying they've ALL been crap today and having a pop at Delph was a bit pointless.

 

[worsleyweb]

Piss poor

 

[poh]

The thing is he is not going anywhere yet,we just have to close all the hatches and hunker down until the end of the season

 

[Dribble]

World class manager? Surely you can't be talking about pellers?

I said top class manager mate. A top class manager is one who can make a bad team decent, a decent team good and a good team brilliant. Does any of this apply to Manuel?

 

[blueinsa]

I wouldn't be too sure, the board will be getting a twitchy finger, I'll guarantee that.

If he goes he goes.

Ive seen plenty of our managers suffer the same fate over the years.

 

[SWP's back]

This

 

[DavidWhitesUnderpants]

Alright peeps. Signing off. Not going to get involved in post match thread nonsense. Really piss poor today. Dreadful. Thanks fuck it only looks like ending 2-0. I think that flattered us to be honest. 4 or 5 nil wouldn't have been a shock, and probably deserved.

Have a good evening lads, don't drink too much.

 

[jon stakes]

Not a single chance of note in the second half... or did I miss something?
