This kind of performance from us and the opposition will definitely happen in Europe, us chasing the game them falling over and time wasting, it’s what happens when you gift teams easy fucking goals by suicidal tactics.

Are we seeing’s the same problems with Haaland that pep had with ibrahimavic? Are we so used to the false nine we can’t change it?
I won’t forget but I won’t ignore what’s happening now. This team is coming to an end. We need to move 3/4 on and hope the recruitment is spot on. Fans get angry or upset it’s what we do. Some of those players regardless of how they have played in the past are clearly not performing. Pep is not helping with the ponderous slow ball we now deliver.
We all need to take a breather and chill. We can’t win the league every season and we will have dips. I’m trying to stay positive but watching us at the min is a bag of emotions and some of those spill out.
Unless the boss rips up his playbook and tries something different we are not good enough to win the league. Maybe a trophy but you need consistency to win the title and we don’t have it. Also create next to nothing and it adds up to a crap season.
spot on matey,
why fans keep bringing up the past and say look what we were, we should be thankful for what we have now ?
Even Pep is open to attack and blame when things are not good, he says it's a result business and is big enough to take it,
the players don't believe in pep any more ? it's clear as mud, what more do you want ? results, players leaving, world-class players sat on the bench fully fit, its simple

That assumes next season everything will be put right. Football doesn't work like that.It's been whispered but now I think it's shouting, this is looking like a transitional season.

I have said for ages, that’s why Pep was right he would have suited our style of play more. Haaland is a great player, but Kane was more suited. We wouldn’t pay the cash, but bought Jack for a similar amount. Strange.What was the point in bringing in the worlds best target man and then wanting him to play like a false 9?
Can see why Pep wanted Kane, he would have suited Pep's style a lot more.
Will Pep change things to accommodate Haaland? Or continue with having the rest of the side playing like we have a false 9 in the side?
As we used to say with Shaun Goater in the team "Feed the goat and he will score." Saw Haaland make so many runs but no one was looking for him.Ah yes is essentially an invisible man but has scored half our goals this year....
its all well and good saying transition etc but if we allow to leave/sell Gundogan, Bernardo, Jesus, Sterling, Zinchenko, Laporte, Cancelo from the 2020/2021 vintage we’ve replaced/will replace them with (respectively)
Phillips, 2023 new signing, Alvarez, Grealish, Gomez, Akanji, 2023 New signing,
and of those we’ve already signed they ain't as good.

We are not thinking about being champions'
FT: Spurs 1-0 Man City.
Manchester City Pep Guardiola speaking to Sky Sports: "We started really well, as usually happens against Tottenham home and away, but after we made a mistake they punished us - 1-0 down it is different, we had chances, and of course when we lose balls in transition with Kulusevski and Son, it is not easy. We dropped three points."
Did your players follow the plan? "Most of the time, yeah, But it is not easy when 10 players defend, and sit back a little bit more than in the Etihad two weeks ago. We played good, started well and missed maybe the last pass, to shoot."
On bringing on Kevin de Bruyne: "I wanted him for the last pass, to find between the lines, he can make one of these actions and that was the reason."
On City's poor record at Spurs: "Sooner or later it is going to change, but it is strange we haven't scored one goal, we have missed penalties in the past. To find an explanation is not easy.
"We found the positions, made good balls to the channels, but missed the last action up front.
"We are not in the position to think about being champions, just the next game, Aston Villa, we will prepare well and play our game as best as possible.
"Tottenham has a fantastic team and squad and they punish you. They have a lot of quality up front and don't need much with transitions, set pieces, give a lot of credit to them."
