Pep Guardiola - 2022/23

[city warrior]

I think today Pep was poor. I understand from our past performance not wanting to change anything and settle for the draw, but bith Bernardo and Gundogan were awful. I think some of the players were intimidated, but thankfully we got a draw and at home we are brilliant. Reminded me a little bit the Leipzig game

Have absolutely no clue how he could justify Bernardo and Gundo playing the entire match out. Both were horrendous.

So was Jack.

I swear if Kalvin Philipps was actually reliable option... should‘ve brought him in for Günni and Mahrez/Alvarez and Foden for Jack and Silva

 

[nicko]

Was the correct starting line up but the man despises making substitutions

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

They were there for the taking. Mahrez, Foden, and Alvarez live for these big occasions and none were brought on?

They should have came on for De Bruyne Gundo and Bernado.

"The eleven players who started the match were exactly the same as those who ended it and Pep Guardiola did something that hadn't happened in 16 years at this stage of the competition. And, curiously, it also happened in a match against a Carlo Ancelotti team, in that case Milan. On April 24, 2007, at Old Trafford, Sir Alex Ferguson saw Manchester United beat the Italians (3-2) and also didn't make any changes over the 90 minutes, with Milan going through to the final on away goals (they won 2-1 at home)".

They should have came on for De Bruyne Gundo and Bernado.

You never sub KDB off. Our options for midfielder are really small. We could have only subbed Bernardo for Foden, Or Gundogan for Foden and change Bernado and Foden positions. I really hope Foden plays next week, because Camavinga had it too easy tonight.

 

[Frankie lad]

Phil would have terrified them in the last 15 mins. Mahrez too and both can score for fun.

 

[Barcon]

I can’t believe people on here think he should have made a change.
Nobody on that bench would have been an improvement unless Grealish was knackered and we brought on Foden or Gundo’s was knackered and we brought on Alvarez.
No way we’re bringing on Mahrez in that situation.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Bit cautious from him tonight. Felt like he set us up not to lose the ball as the priority rather than try and create chances and the lack of subs for the last 20 minutes when there were minimum a couple of easy subs to be made that would have helped us really was him settling for a point.

I understand it given the situation and if we go through next week it will be a masterstroke but i know just how good we are, i truly believe we are comfortably the best team in europe and I'll never not want to see us going out to win even if his approach tonight seems sensible.
