I think the midfield should be Kova - Foden - nunes until kev is back, score more than you concede and at least it has legs.
I agree, but Nunes had to play as a winger for the last 3 matches. I think it has to be Kovacic- Nunes/Grealish - Foden/KDB for the season. Bernardo and Gundo as subs, Doku as a great sub for the last 30 minutes in both wings.
 
Pep needs to step up now in a big way. A lot of the problems seem to be down to a lack of adjustment to reality: the best DM in world football and one of the best creative players ever are both on extended injury break, our captain is a RB who looks well past it, and we’ve seen massive regressions in others - but we are still persisting with players who just can’t make the system work. It’s on Pep to figure out what to do now.

Not looking to slate him, but also not looking to give him a free pass.
 
I'd be happy if it did and I'd take it on the chin, as he's reinvented the team multiple times. But everyone agrees that we need fresh blood on the field. He's not going to reinvent us in one final season, even if he stays.
I'm hoping he will do the impossible in this injury crisis over the next 4 weeks. That's what is going to take to keep us in the running for at least a champions league place. This is by far his hardest test even though it could be his last season with us. He's a stubborn individual though and that could be a good or bad depending on what he does. Does he give one or two academy youngsters a run in the team? Where does the impetus come from?
 
The Spurs game was a real brainfart from Pep, he knew we couldn't afford more injuries to our starters and except Haaland he played them anyway, and lo and behold Stones, Savinho and Dias get injured and it fucks our far more important league game.
