First time in his career he's had to majorly rebuild his team and the ins(so far) are not fit to lace the outs boots. Couple that with some shite injuries and were swimming up stream.

But then he's not helping the situation with seemingly picking the team sheet out of a hat rather going with anything that resembles previous successes. If he has to insist on a new approach then have some fucking consistency.
Doesn't trust a single midfielder that isn't 6"3 and Spanish. It's a big reason why cleansheets have become mythical creatures.
But then on the other hand he's treating players like Alvarez, who started the season well but probably hasn't had a truly good performance since coming off the bench vs Leipzig at the start of October, like an immortal.

I know he doesnt fit the football Pep wants to play but when trying to see out a win, which he has been doing by subbing Ake on for Gvardiol for example, then that 50mil cdm probably worth 10mins here and there. Instead today makes no subs again then will act surprised/annoyed when injuries and fatigue kick in. Game management been awful recently

But all said and done, I look forward to see how he pieces it all together to get us firing again. Something will click, always does.

First season or two was a major rebuild so stopped reading at the start of your post , same three or four posters all gloom and doom and liking each others posts

He already did. The front three (Sterling-Sane-Aguero) is no more. The midfield (Silva-KDB-Fernandinho), only KDB is still here. Defense (Otamendi- Walker- Mendy- Kompany) only Walker is here. So he has done 2 rebuilds, one to Pellegrini's team, and another one to his own.

Done it at least once, only KDB is left from when he arrived. Not only has he done a couple of times he’s continued winning while he does it, very few can do that.

I get the point and I guess its somewhat of a rebuild(replacing old players) but that was gradual over 4 seasons, that's part and parcel of being at a club x amount of years, it's not a big overhaul in a window like this year was, not just in personnel but the shift in system that's come with it.
The team/squad looks nothing like it did last season.. It's a lot worse.

We have a shift in system literally every year Pep has been here. We have had easily 4-5 complete shift since Pep arrived, so h also did that. You really just want to criticize whatever. Let's talk at the end of the season, because I am certain that your opinion was exactly the same 1 year ago (out of the Carabao, 5 point away from Arsenal).

Won every trophy possible at City.

God.
