I’m going to be patient as I do believe he can get us playing well again, but his tactics and certain favourites aren’t making any sense at the minute. This set of players should be scoring goals. Build up play is ok, the ball gets to the wide players and they cut it back. Peps wingers are meant to run at full backs in the final third, it doesn’t happen anymore.

Edited for accuracy .. **** not CountNot a fraud and his football has been brilliant and given us fantastic memories but the style now is boring one dimensional and predictive... thanks for the happy marriage Pep but it’s sadly time for a divorce and take that fkn useless count Bridesmaid Mahrez with you

Yayyyyy, 2 and a half more years of this. Just reinvent something. This is where being inspired by Cruyff has the weakness of it not being Cruyff and Johan no longer being here to provide the answer.
The game has moved on from the philosophy of playing football against 90s and 00s tactics and fitness. It's a game of doping, marginal gains and clinicalness and the blueprint has to evolve. We've gone back 10 years when we updated the blueprint in 17/18 that the Dippers adapted into gegenpress. The difference is the off the pitch gains and teams getting sick of being thumped by us just means they refuse to play ball, so we have to come up with something different or this will never work again.

Certainly isn't seeing the two years out, regressing at an almighty rate

Never thought I'd say this but we've made a mistake giving him that extension. We need a new manager to freshen things up and give the players a kick up the backside.
