Bearing in mind we restarted with a kick off at 1-1 and 22 seconds later they have a pen is in itself terrible, didn't think it could get worse but it did

No idea how we now pick ourselves up for the Brighton game

Been coming for ages, maybe it has to happen for Pep to get his head out of his arse and fix the glaring problems. And if it does have to happen, I'd rather it be in this competition where it doesn't matter at this stage than in the league.

So many people are looking in the wrong direction for the problem here though blaming players. It's nothing to do with the players, it's all on pep and his sunday league suicide shape. This will not be fixed until he changes the shape, doesn't matter who plays.

The worrying thing is pep has had weeks upon weeks of us scraping through gametoagainst week opposition to spot and fix it, he hasn't so I've no faith he'll do what's neccesary by the weekend and as a result i fear Brighton will be an ugly bloodbath.

Pep is undoubtedly a genius but with top quality players. He isn't a genius at the moment. We've lost the quality.

The past week has been absolutely not good enough, on and off the pitch.

Serious questions need asking of everyone involved but the main one is.. 'When is this squad finally going to get angry this season?'

When it does, the run-in might actually take off..

Soppy cunts in the matchday thread man, it was a shit game, it happens, people are acting like we're 10 points behind in the league and nowhere near the top of CL table thing

This feels like the “we’re still unbeaten” comments from a few weeks back. It will be our reality soon enough.

Could be worse...

Could be the German rags or Franco's Fascists.

The Fascists got stuffed at home.

 

[Blumers Bloomers]

some right cunts on here, proper smacked arses and spoiled twats.

Boo fucking boo, we aren’t playing great at the minute.

Grow up

Copy and pasted from your post in the Matchday thread

Off to bed and media blackout for the week to miss the inevitable wankathon over the rags new manager

I try and be as positive as I can on this sort of stuff, and never say never, but it looks and feels like it's one too many for this squad. It happens, and there's a reason why four in a row, let alone five, hasn't been done.

We either need a change of philosophy (which won't happen, and fairly so), we need some players to get fit and stay fit (which doesn't look likely right now), or we just need to get our heads down, cling on as best we can, and see if we can buy in January.

What I'd give for a Roméo Lavia and Cole Palmer right about now. Hmmm.

The only thing that I'm annoyed about is the Amorim love-in that will now follow.

The loss of Rodri, Dias, Stones, Grealish, Bobb, Walker, and the lack of fitness of Ake, Akanji, and DeBruyne are too big a factor to ignore. Nevertheless, we should have been in front and coasting, and I enjoyed the first-half very much.

Fortunately, I don't give much of a toss about this tournament because I would be bouncing if this was the PL, and especially at the start to the second-half that was the place the game was truly lost.

Nunes ?
I thought it was difficult for him playing on the left side in recent games ….but on the right he is even worse !
And no I am not singling him out….there was many others out there who were just as bad ….

He’s not even a winger…
