Pep Guardiola - 2024/25

[clarion]

I honestly don't think he had the squad to even pick a team that could cope tonight.

The bit that is on him is the small squad.
Everything else isn't.

Nobody could have seen this big of a drop off from 7+ players. The the recruitment has been fucking shocking, Kovacic, Nunes etc...terrible.

Yes he did. Not for his crazy formation 4 attacking players behind Erling and only Kova in the middle.
On the top comes Nunes as right back. Those are his decisions.

Who is he supposed to play at RB. Not Rico

Honestly, position our players however you want, they have a limit this season.

 

[B\connellblue]

Which is ? Probably what you’ve always wanted . Matchday and here you are posting shite as usual.

What part of that is shite. Is he doing right by the team now? His management these past months has been really poor, Christ he let the worst rag team in memory beat us( not for the first time either).

Another multi goal lead pissed away. Gundo on at 2-2 and expect us to be solid?

 

[Stelea]

Has his pants pulled down by Enrique tonight. Didn’t have any answer to their press, didn’t seem to change anything either all game.

The same Kova/Gundo sub which failed against Brentford and again tonight, obviously, absolutely baffling.

Kovocic is gassed by 60 mins plus he was shit

 

[Stelea]

Another multi goal lead pissed away. Gundo on at 2-2 and expect us to be solid?

Who should he bring on?

 

[johncity]

We have to get threw this season finish top 4 a cup run if possible build for next rebuild we were never going too stay number one for ever

 

[Gigant]

Stones
Lewis
Bernardo
Gundogan
Grealish
Nunes

Should leave as soon as possible

Idk how we get into the postion where we need to sign like 10 players in span of 6 months to look like a proper team

 

[01cravend]

Who should he bring on?

No-one, don't make the change.. he make us worse everytime

 

[ID70]

Lack of foresight not to address the lack of pace, mobilty and physically in the team, especially in midfield, has been a mistake as has relying on the same senior players and same defensive setup

 

[FJRMCFC]

another really poor day at the office. no idea what his thinking is at the moment, but the shape and set-up of the team is woeful, as is the game management.

There’s absolutely nothing you can do as a coach when your players are outmatched physically. We couldn’t get near them

 

[Mr Grumpy]

Pep isn't getting enough criticism.
He's playing a system that won't work with the state of the team he has, or rather, is prepared to play.

He's not flexing to try something else.

It's rinse-repeat and so are the performances.

 

[Stelea]

No-one, don't make the change.. he make us worse everytime

He had to change it as Kovocic was shattered as he is every game me after an hour.
As was KDB and Bernie
That’s the problem (plus the 3rd goal was a set piece with zero marking in the guy who scored)

 

[ninjamonkey]

Piss poor yet again. He got it wrong from the start, he tried to set us up to control the game, something we just cannot do anymore, the only times we posed a threat was with pace upfront and direct attacking so peps decision at halftime was to remove the threat we had and go all in on the thing that wasn't working. Yes we scored two goals shortly after the subs but they were completely against the gameplan. They both stemmed from defenders breaking forward not us controlling the game. We didn't create a single chance after those goals, creating less than we did first half, we couldnt get out of our half because the controlled pressing game we wanted to play, they were 10 times better than us at. We couldn't have played into their hands any better.

We used to dream of teams being naive enough to go toe-to-toe with us because we knew we were the best on the planet at playing that way and we'd come out on top if anybody dared to do that. well the shoe is on the other foot now and we are choosing to go toe-to-toe with teams that are much, much better than us at that kind of game. That is on the manager.

Pep will come out and say once more that we cannot compete with teams who run and press because they are better than us at it, yet he continues to set us up to play exactly that way.

 

[super_city_si]

We need available Players. Fuck all any coach can do with our second half defence line up.

Hope the new boys are ready.

What part of that is shite. Is he doing right by the team now? His management these past months has been really poor, Christ he let the worst rag team in memory beat us( not for the first time either).

He hasn’t changed a single thing during a horrendous run.

He picks players bang out of form, plays them out of position and the formation tonight was basically five up front and one in midfield against a very good side away from home.

Injuries obviously played a big part back in November and early December but that’s wearing thin now.

 

[Chak19]

Can someone please tell me when jogging around and not putting the effort became acceptable for Pep Guardiola ? because I'm watching players do that for most of the game and keep their place in the team week in week out, what happend to the Pep who would give youth a chance and bench big star players if they didn't put in the effort ? oh and if Dias is injured again than well played once again Pep, keep rushing players back from injury in hope they magically stay fit and then complain about injuries.

And does Bernie have some dirty pictures of Pep ? because why else does this guy get 90 minutes every week ? it can't be for any footballing ability because I see none of it.

Well at least he made 5 subs tonight.

You really have it in for Pep don’t you…

 

[deano ou812]

Could Pep walk end of season it’s a possibility,he seems to have just lost the plot with playing the same players mix it up grab a few youth players and put them in midfield surely they couldn’t do any worse..
