He had his tactics right, but the players are unable to execute them.
He was right to try and play the game in their half to see it out, playing backwards was inviting pressure and with all the mistakes we’ve been making in defence it became a recipe for disaster.
The whole back four were dreadful tonight and that is not the fault of the manager (well it is is suppose, he should not have picked them)

When you’ve Dias on bench and them subs are made it’s fucking criminal
The tactics for the majority of the game was fine, like I said before it wasn't his fault that it was 3-2, it was only on Gvardiol, but he needed to change it after that and tell them to drop deep and close the game out, but he's just too stubborn.He had his tactics right, but the players are unable to execute them.

Who decided to use Gvardiol? He should have been on the bench (or even left out of the squad) after the disaster show against Tottenham.

Correct. The tactics were good. The players were totally crap, he must have many regrets over who he brought on.When you’ve Dias on bench and them subs are made it’s fucking criminal
I don’t think we’ll see the likes of McAtee or Simpson Pusey for a while
Well you're probably right about that, if Dias can play sunday he should play Ake at LB, maybe some time on the bench will help Gvardiol because goodness me he's been dreadful for a month now.Who decided to use Gvardiol?

The tactics were absolutely fine from the start. The subs were utter wank though - took off arguably our best three players on the night, two of whom (Gundogan and Ake) offer at least a little bit of leadership. It was a major error and we paid the price.Correct. The tactics were good. The players were totally crap, he must have many regrets over who he brought on.

Tactics were fine but what the fuck was he thinking with those sub. Without those subs we’d have won comfortably and when we needed that boost the most.
We’re into the Liverpool game with the worst possible mindset. Why risk it?

The tactics were good. About the changes, if the players cannot keep up a 3-goal difference against Feyenoord for 15 min... I am sorry, but when you see the brain-dead individual mistakes that produced their goals, I don't know how anyone can blame the changes.
I am sorry, but when a team lets 3 goals against an inferior team in 15 min, the fault is always of the players. The good news is that Gundo- Nunes has been the best duo in our midfield, and for the first time we look to be more in control (still it is against Feyenoord).
