"It is Rico the special one everyone should treat him as their son"What did the “It’s Rico” comments mean?
He's watched the same things happening for 6 weeks and changed it once against Forest in which we played well and won convincingly. Then he reverts back to type and we get lucky to get a point at fucking struggling palace!Stubborn to the point where he'd rather lose game after game than address the frailties in the team.
Am I missing something in his decisions? Its beyond actual belief how he stands and watches these performances and leaves changes so late.
This form is just as much on him as It is injuries or anything else. We don't make top 8 never mind top 4 playing as we are right now.

His ego is getting in the way
He set us up wrong and he won't accept that
How naive is he that he refuses to change it up, well we've know that for years
Still our greatest, but he's proving he's not exactly thriving when suffering adversity... if anything he looks more and more lsot by the week
I have faith he can turn it around... but he's really worrying me

Pep got wrong set up at times before but good players like Rodri and our players in their prime bailed him out many times.pep getting a lot wrong this year, is what it is
Now he does not have that leeway and has to face the reality that other coaches face everyday.

He needs to start trusting the kids, United could be a tipping point for a lot of fans if we lose, I know we have a lot of injuries but the rest are not at this time covering themselves in glory. We need legs in midfield and I don’t mean Lewis who is too lightweight. Put one of the other lads in there to help Gundogan get Bernie on the right. Pep needs to be pragmatic and pick one competition to put his best team in, we won’t win the league but we need top 4, I know he won’t do it but if bin off the CL, not a chance we win that unless he knows we are bringing in sone huge signings in January and even then wound they be cup tied? He looks like he’s run out of ideas with what’s at his disposal, look at the bench. If we pick up a few more injuries we could go into free fall.First time today I looked at him and he looks tired .
Not starting Grealish and Doku proved a poor decision today.
Why do you think they didn't start?

A tipping point? In what way?

You’ll start hearing a lot of booing, not from me, but a lot of our “younger” fans have not experienced this before and the happy clappers.A tipping point? In what way?

I don't think Pep has any answers of how to get us out of this current mess. He's said yesterday that every team we face now are better than us, concerning statement really

He's the best manager in the history of football..I'm sure we'll be fine.
He didn't say that at all. He was on about defending set-pieces with our current players.I don't think Pep has any answers of how to get us out of this current mess. He's said yesterday that every team we face now are better than us, concerning statement really

Yeah nobody else has good players. Only Pep. The reality for other coaches is that 14 of their 18 man squad have been injured this season including their four of their top five players missing most of the season. They deal with that all the time they do.

Hard to blame the manager when individuals are making the kind of basic errors that led to Palace's goals yesterday. It felt like we could have got the winner had the ref not made an error on the Lewis second yellow. I think the constant injuries and associated niggles is driving him mad this season and hopefully he now sees that having a small squad is madness with the club trying to fight on all fronts with no cover for injuries/fatigue.
Maybe but you can blame the manager for not changing it and also we have young players on the bench ch who must be thinking wtf do j have to do to get a game !

But we don't know what (if anything) was said before do we? Typical internet snippet that's probably generated loads of clicks,which is what it was meant to do.I think that it's quite worrying that Pep could be triggered by some utter no-mark tramp's pathetic comments in that way.
