Pep’s Spurs (H) Post-Match Interview

[SiMCFC]

Sorry Pep but I've just got home and if you want the fans behind you, get the team playing from the start of the game, the slow boring side to side possession for the sake of it game just saps the energy of most in the ground to be honest, as soon as the team looked like they gave a shit so did everyone else, can't see his arse when his tactics have put out dull as dishwasher performances and expect people to be cheering yet another 20 passes that don't lead to anything.

So Pep thinks the team are lacking passion, but the likes of Mahrez, stones, Grealish ect all have a laid-back demeanor, & Edison is almost horizontal! not a criticism, it's their nature. Most of the more passionate players like Dias, De Bruyne, Foden, Silva were sitting on the Bench, IMO when the chips are down, these are the type of players that need to be on the pitch their passion rubs off on the rest. We miss the likes of Fern & Vinnie in that respect.

They brought it back and won that game without needing any of those players off the bench, to be fair…

I bet the players got a bit of a shock hearing Pep complain about their lack of passion, fight and desire. Considering they had just completed an amazing second half fightback.

Who, if anyone, is challenging the club about atmosphere?

The scum have done it, not to say it is much better but it's better than it was, and I know there are groups pressuring the club to improve seating areas. Grouping of fans who want to sing etc. They are getting some progress...

Do we have anything similar happening at City?

As Pep says we are quiet until we score. Too expectant.

I really don’t get this. Did people not hear him say that the players were lacking as much as anyone? He’s not happy with them either. He’s asking for us to to help fire them up as much as he’s trying to.

Our home support is no worse than Old Trafford, Anfield, Stamford Bridge, Emirates etc….i can live with that!
So why does Pep have to tell the whole fucking world live on tv that were shit (and not for the first time)
Does Ten Haag? Klopp? Arteta? I’ve also missed Potter mentioning how poor Chelsea fans were in his interview after City sing “is this the Etihad” at Stamford Bridge the other week.
Maybe try not to mention the fans (again) Pep. This shit sticks on the walls and your giving rival fans ammunition FFS
£70.00 for a ticket and the manager has a pop at you after his team put’s a peformance like that first half.

Were not perfect but which supporters are on a freezing Thursday night?

He's personally asking us to be more passionate while hes here. None of the managers above come close to Pep and if Leeds can make a din despite barely tolerating their current manager so should we while witnessing potentially the best manager in our lifetime.

Do you think if the team were playing how he wants them to, he’d be calling them all out in public?

Fuck em.

One quote that kind of got a bit lost, but I absolutely love Pep for, is when he said Rico Lewis got fouled 4 times for no yellow card and we didn’t react. He’s so right. The senior players should have put Hojbjerg and Bentancur in their place for targeting him. But they’re nowhere to be seen and Rico has to lick his wounds on his own. It’s fucking spineless from some of these players, I’m so glad Pep is calling it out.

So right. I think Gundo was captain. He should have been kicking right off with the ref. Need Dias back running the show and as captain. ASAP or sooner if possible.

A back line including Akanji, Stones and Ake is very tidy but also very soft.
