pep be gone in summer!!

Piss poor performance. We now need to beat Arsenal home and away to have any hope of winning the league.

Not a chance of that I'm afraid unless we change tactics. What's the point of having a 6' 4 ' monster and not feeding him. " Feed the Norse and he will score "

Every one and their brother just signed someone quality on loan or spend to fill gaps. We ditch a player who had been key to our attack and try to plug him with a kid not to mention no signings of anyone who could step into the team. Said here before of late but it feels like the beginning of a shite few seasons until we make some paradigm changes.

Ball back and forth, accept a pass stop ball tap pass to the side... Stand over ball roll ball to other foot, short aimless pass with no attacking intent: repeat repeat repeat... no service not urgency no grit no heart no leadership on the pitch. Lose ball... look like chickens with heads cut off trying to scramble to avoid conceding.
Pep today looked checked out... almost comically do with that last Grealish play where Pep was reacting.

Something has to give.

They have all served us well but time to change. Many players have already left mentally.

They still all deserve to be cheered this season

I think pep has lost them to be honest mate

None of the midfield players are running ahead of the forwards and we continue to play at one pace.

 

[RayCTID]

I could genuinely see more than half our player leaving in the summer, including the Viking.

There isn't going to be that many changes

 

[Kippax77]

Our genius tactic made Spud's rubbish defence looked like a great wall.

I often wonder how we prepare for this in training because we don't have a clue come matchday when we have to try and break a team down.

This ain't the game to start Lewis

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

We set up the same way in our last 3 games and won them all. The 2 games we lost before that, we set up differently.

We played badly. That's it. Pep didn't even tinker, he kept the defence as similar as possible with Stones out injured. Dias cannot play wide like Stones does. He picked Alvarez over De Bruyne because De Bruyne has been really poor, and was again when he came on.

Would I like to see the likes of Dias, Laporte, KDB starting? Yes. But I don't watch them train, and I don't have experience of winning more titles than any other living manager.
