I don't back against us as a rule but I would have won a mint if I went with my picks in the past 13 games.

We have been so under the odds its absurd.

For some reason I thought we would not lose to Forrest don't ask me why but I have picked us to lose every game since we lost Spurs in the CC and unfortunately City are not giving me any reason to change my mind.

A draw is the best we can expect against Leicester IMO.

Not play behind Rodri, replace the old Gundo who used to fill in admirably when Rodri was out and also play in a box to box role as an 8 in the same team with Rodri. I'll name you a dozen guys who could have filled that role...What are we doing here?

Not really bothered about your dozen. Maybe we’ll find somebody in January maybe we won’t.
 
Worrying that we just keep doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. If we were changing personnel it might help but we can’t we simply don’t have enough quality in the squad. Why he doesn’t give Wright Oreilly or McAtee at least a chance is baffling.

Interesting. I made a general statement. If you support Pep above the club then that's on you. If you don't why get so bothered? I assume you might not know who the great Joe DiMaggio was.
I'll keep it simple. One never knows who is watching you perform for the first time. Pointing to one's resume is never an excuse for performing so terribly.
You said you could give a fuck. Apparently you're not the only one.
How about Pep and these players hold their collective hands up and admit they've been terrible? Let everyone else point to their glories.
This has become a joke...

Joke post ,true.
 
He's not having a good year, too emotionally attached to certain players at the end of their careers and not seeing straight. He's had 6 good years out of the previous seven so I guess he's earned this, though the scale of disaster is getting too ludicrous.

You're only on this forum because we signed Jeremy Doku.

Not sure you're best placed to decide what this club needs.

That has zero relevance. You should address the argument, not the person.

Pep is too stubborn in his ways and these players seems pretty frustrated with what they are instructed to do on the pitch. The team atmosphere is clearly bad. The tactics are not working. The team is barely creating chances, and the pressing game is bad. And accountability should play a role. Winning titles doesn't excuse having a team this expensive and performing this badly for so long. With great power come great responsibilities.

As someone said, there are two options, either overhaul the squad with 6-7 new players, or hire a coach that would work better with the current group. The latter is much less expensive and buys you time to implement a new vision.
 
he changed his tune a bit. from "want my players back" to "we do need January signings". but then he will have a bigger squad which he doesnt like. :)

I wonder what is the mood these days between Pep and the medical team-physios.
