Yeah for that little Argentine fellow that Pep allowed to leave, what's his name again ?

No haaland is world class if used properly.We talking bout form, because of course none are
Haaland, Foden, KDB, Bernardo, Rodri, Dias are world class and a LOT of the squad are elite
This team is weaker, but it's not 1 win in 11 including losing to a shit United and getting battered multiple times
He's the one who plays Gundogan every game, he's the one who wants us to be risk adverse and then gets is into trouble by overplaying, he has a part in the squad building and he clearly was happy enough
Stop making excuses for him not making any changes to a team who's style has been figured out
Foden could be he was last season.
Dias maybe.
Kev was isnt close any more.

IMO Haaland would move a lot more, if he thought he had any chance whatsoever of receiving a quick pass/through ball etc. I wouldn’t move either, if every time I moved, I watched my midfielders pass backwards/sideways. We have a midfield and bunch of wide men, that aren’t fit for purpose.To be fair. Making no excuses. But Haaland doesn’t move.
Hard to create a chance for a statue.
Setting us up to score goals would also mean exposing our already weak/slow midfield. United on the pace would have killed us. He got it right, we were winning the Nunes comes along.And setting us up correctly would've been setting us up to score goals not get a 1-0 when everyone knows we can't keep a clean sheet to save our lives and can collapse at any moment, and that's another one on the manager, every single time we concede we collapse, poor mentality and the manager has to take the blame here too.

How many time3s you see the ball go out wide for Doku or Savinho to beat the man a few times to make room for a cross and then just pass it back?
Today we did it from a corner after a short corner, it's boring and it's shit.

Then use Haaland properlyNo haaland is world class if used properly.
Foden could be he was last season.
Dias maybe.
Kev was isnt close any more.
Then motivate Phil
Kev is world class even if fragile, he can win a game by himself.... few teams are so lucky to have someone like him
I agree, but that’s simply not realistic mate especially with he contracts some are on…6/7??
Try 12-13.
Remember Rags went through this and they shipped their golden boy Beckham off to make a statement they will not accept standards dropping.
Sadly it's on us now to not look fondly at old times but at the present.

It's not all on Pep, it's the players too it looks like some just can't be arsed.
I said I would never post again in here but I can't ignore that. It's the most moronic post I have ever seen, and in this forum that's saying something.All I see is an excuse for a manager who's suffering the first bit of adversity I this career and has no idea what to do but panick and spread the panick into the players
Can you name any other "excuse for a manager" that has won 6 titles in 7 seasons - and the rest - in what is considered the best league in the world? I haven't seen any panic whatsoever, all I see is a team out of sorts due mostly to a lot of injuries and necessary changes.
We need a break too, we seem to be conceding a lot which 9 times out of 10 wouldn't have ended in a goal, like the last one today. Penalty was a bit soft to say the least when you compare it with how Haaland was being wrestled in the first half, but that's the way it's going. It will come back, just stop fucking whinging people and keep the faith.
Wouldn't normally call this out either, but can't even spell a simple 5 letter word.

In my opinion kev is finished.
Unfortunately.
And with haaland..much as I love pep it goes against his style of play to pump it to haaland.
If that lad played for the dippers of Madrid he would score twice as many.
I believe he's genuinely the best striker ever.
He doesn't suit our play
