The wingers (Savinho/Doku/Grealish/Bernardo) are virtually zero goal threat. Savinho has 2 goals in 36 games. Im not digging the lad out, he’s young and has some talent but on minutes played he’s our number one Winger and not delivering anywhere near enough. That just cant be right for a team wanting to be competing for titles.

He should be 4th choice (Doku 3rd) with 2 world class wingers starting most weeks (like Sane/Sterling/Mahrez/etc). Savinho should be being introduced to the team slowly and gaining experience. Not starting so many games. Its not fair on the lad, we've set him up to fail…

Granted the form of Grealish and Bernardo hasn't helped, however that should have been dealt with by last summer. Bernardo has wanted to leave for 3 years. We’re paying for keeping him now, looks totally disinterested!! Grealish is 1 goal in 10 in the 4 years he’s been here, just not acceptable!! Big changes required!!

Viana has a big job on his hands. Issues at GK, RB, LB, AM, Wingers and back up striker at least

my thoughts exactly although the old wingers had more creativity feeding them.
 
I thought the pitch was awful. Dry as a bone, with an uneven bounce.

Had De Bruyne weighted his pass to Marmoush better (it wasn't that difficult) we could have been one up. Instead a minute later we were losing.

Hit the post the first half and nearly grabbed an equaliser in injury time.

It was the sole reason. We were on course in getting a point.

As I said, Forest would've sensed blood and gone for it.
We were shite, fooked and made substitutions that actually made us worse.

If we were on for a point how come we didn't even come close to equalising in the 10+ minutes after they scored.

Forest nearly made it 2 nowt actually.
 
These post match threads are getting as daft as the match threads

If we win Nico’s the new Rodri, Savinho & Doku are Robben & Ribery and we’re all set to dominate the world again with none or two signings in summer.

If we lose, all the usual halfwits have a field day and inform us helpfully that the world’s greatest ever manager needs to go long ball as he’s been found out and it’s an absolute disgrace that we’re 4 points off 3rd place and the club’s in freefall blah blah blah

Oh .. 100% mate..
I've been saying it for a while now but you just get 4 in a row..
Our tactics have won us everything..

Teams all over Europe have been buying the right players and training tactically to how we play..

Previous everybody was trying to play like us but now they've found a way to nullify us and how we play.

The elephant in the room is peps stubbornness..
 
Fucking terrible. Couldn't score in a brothel with a grand on the hip. No plan b all season. Sussed out by many teams unless city change tactics and style of play this is it now. Watch other teams demolish us next year if we don't change. Come on Pep ffs!

So you think peps free from criticism?

Also a lot of ifs.. in that mate.
Ifs buts and maybes don't win matches.
 
I didn’t watch the game or highlights but I don’t think you can start Doku Savinho Foden and Silva all together with a single defensive midfielder either that player being Gonzalez or Kova or even Rodri. Because there is no midfielder in the middle. They tend to lose the ball when everyone is up and not having a determination to track the ball all the way back. And Doku and Savinho cannot start together as they are quite the same player and tend to copy each other when things not in our way. And Savinho should play in left wing if you have to play him. Kovacic should start the games as one of the double pivot but Pep must have other plans to try out first but the experiments are risky.
