One of the main reasons he hasn't won more CL titles is because he frequently gets the starting lineup wrong, well he got it wrong again tonight even though we won, but better teams would have punished us as we've seen multiple times in the KO stages.

Fuck knows whats going on in his head. He must have age blindness
Watching the two of them together is sad. Then you see Kova is behind them and it's a recipe to get absolutely throttled through the middle.Love him but he’s got to stop playing Gundy & Kev both are just too old

I don't get what his role was supposed to be anyway. It isn't like he was sitting back and pulling the strings, he was almost playing up front with Haaland with his back to goal.Love him but he’s got to stop playing Gundy & Kev both are just too old

I'm sure Ilkay and the club will come to a mutually agreeable decision, it's obvious he can't do another season at the top.Gundogan being only 5 games away from
Automatic renewal.. yeah we will see him
Next year again

Made unnecessarily hard work of it with his starting line up. Very hard to work out why he changed the team so markedly given how we played on Saturday.
He looks fucked at the moment, ill in fact. He should take the week off before that Leyton Orient match and get a bit of sun on his back and have a proper rest somewhere hot. Could make all the difference to him for the rest of the season.

I never want to see that starting midfield ever again. It made no sense.
Bernardo had his best game of the season at the weekend…moves him to RW. He’s got no pace, no right foot, doesn’t create or score goals. Be better off with Ederson out there.
Foden has been scoring for fun in the middle…moves him to LW.
Does this to accommodate a geriatric Gundo, who has had 1 good game (against a shit Ipswich) all season.
Theres no way this current side can have KDB and Gundo in the middle. I have no idea why Pep can’t see this.
Pep got very lucky in the end. That game could easily have gotten away from us.
Spot on this. Night and day once they all shifted positions. I try to trust in him but hard to see what he was thinking.
When you consistently try to play through the middle of the pitch and lose the ball with an overs 30s team with 0 legs you deserve everything you are going to get. Changed it and we got the ball wide and deservedly won the game. I think we need some balls on the coaching staff to challenge his team selection and tactics, as the first half was bloody weird.

He will sleep the best he has for months tonight, especially knowing his obsession with the CL and us being through
He will do it again tho !Spot on this. Night and day once they all shifted positions. I try to trust in him but hard to see what he was thinking.

Can't be that obsessed. He went into a CL final, which was the first in the club's modern history, without an outright DM.He will sleep the best he has for months tonight, especially knowing his obsession with the CL and us being through

It was so fucking obvious though too. Wasn’t a hindsight thing at h/t i wasn’t overly worried because i knew he’d have to put Savinho on, shift Phil and we’d score 2 or 3.He will do it again tho !
Oh rightFuck the 1st half, nailed the 2nd.
Didn’t even need to play that system as it would have left plenty of space for their counters. Just leave Foden drifting in from the right where he can get his shots off and play Savinho. Was all about accommodating KDB, Bernie and Gundo. Thankfully we got away with itGot it wrong tonight despite the outcome, should have stuck with the system against Chelsea
