Sorry, but tonight tells us that it's over for Pep. Thanks for some amazing years, but it's obvious that 10 mins before Lepzeig equalized that changes needed to be made and he did fuck all again.
We have a worldie striker, and we can't get the ball to him, that's poor coaching from Pep. We have a big squad and he won't make a sub, we piss about around the box and then pass back before the half-way line.
Not a chance we win the Cl with Pep, sorry but he's a stubborn old goat who refuses to change and he will cost us the league this season.
It's over for Pep because.... we drew a game?
Some of you have lost your heads.
being afraid to lose the ball is something this City team has developed...
we pass our way out of good chances or half chances just for the sake of not losing the ball. or not making risky passes that can decide the games in our favour. alongside that we lost lot of intensity, pressing. of course that is not a surprise with Haaland, Mahrez, Grealish trio none of them can press and being as intense as we had with Sterling, Foden, Jesus upfront...

You would think having signed the hottest striking property in Europe we would have adapted to his playing strengths.
Right now i am beginning to feel like Haaland is being deliberately frozen out in games,and it is bizarre.He might as well not be out there in a shirt, if we are determined to play with only 10 players and try to walk the Ball in to the Net every game.
Crazy to say but we are wasting Haaland talent.
Halland talent is having Beast like strength,and speed, he needs defense splitting through Balls for him to chase on to, terrorize defenses.
Pep it seems is determined to carry on playing his own unique style, the exact opposite of what Haaland actually needs.Instead of defense splitting through Balls,everything has to be worked very Slowly and patiently through the Flanks giving defenders time to get back and readjust,pack the penalty area.
Our style is killing the Lad.He was visibly frustrated tonight.
If Pep wants Haaland to fuck off to Barcelona,,or Real Madrid and score for fun he is going the right way about it.

If you think todays game and the forest game were similar you need to rewatch both games. Totally different except the outcome. We wern't in anyway boring in the Forest game.I've got my grip cheers. You watched the game right? We were fucking awful. Like we played leipzig any different than we played forest, or brentford, or everton. Nothing changes. The opposition knows exactly what we're going to do, we do to and ITS FUCKING BORING!

Remember when we had jumpers for goalposts? In those happy days, wingers would swap sides.Lack of genuine width up front as well. How often do our wide forwards attempt to beat the full back on the outside? Rarely, why? Because they are one footed and cut inside onto the strong foot, it's predictable, kills momentum, and easy to defend against. Remember when we used to stretch the pitch with Sane and Sterling? We are a million miles away from that now sadly.
Wouldn't it be great if ..............

That may be the case mate but we’ve not really had a lot of opportunities to make that assertion have we?The issues with Phillips is that he's not good.

Admittedly a few pints in but for God’s sake…..
Yes we are way below the standards of the past few seasons
Yes we aren’t putting a run together
Yes some players are bang out of form
But for the love of all that is holy - we are getting shafted. Tonight was a STONEWALL penalty - yep we were crap second half. Sometimes that happens…..and when you score a last minute winner after a crap performance it can be season defining - regrettably we don’t get the opportunity. People can woman and moan about our performance tonight (it certainly wasn’t the best second half) but at the end of the day we were denied a blatant game winning opportunity.
Said game winning opportunity was only discussed “after the break” - had it been other teams it’d have been first up (adding pressure re the next leg). Never been sure about the “agenda” stuff but, Christ, that tonight was a joke - 1. No pen given by ref 2. No VAR 3. Played down by BT

Less than a month ago, he tactically annihilated the Premier League leaders.
We got it wrong tonight, but let's not do this.
