We take your chances we win easily, Eddie should have saved the first, things happen just unlucky again tbh

Maybe its a way of pacing ourselves for a tough season ahead but its obvious we arent working as hard closing down opposing players as we used to.
Its easier to play around us this season, opposing players have more time on the ball

This... We're so easy to play through versus the likes of Arsenal. It's part of the reason why I think Pep is so adamant about playing Alvarez behind Haaland. I said it previously, but I feel like the team is trying to overcompensate for Haaland's inability to press consistently and it's leaving us wide open. I do think Haaland is a bit lazy at times, but more so he's just not physically built to counter-press over 90 minutes like Jesus is, for example.

Why Pep won't sub Haaland when we're just trying to see out a lead is another story, though...

Yep Kovacic average and injury prone and nowhere near the quality of Gundo.

Nunes an absolute bizarre panic buy. Not good enough imo. Will be surprised if he comes good to be a main player.

Nunes could be the new Phillip's

Why cant we stop crosses coming in, especially at the death. I want to see the desire to hang on to a lead. We don't make it hard

Agreed, especially allowing that cross come in for their third. At strange of the game we shoukd have been all over them. We do have to remember that we had a midweek game and players out injured.

I’m looking forward to the apology by PGMOl…

 

[Stoned Rose]

Club fucked up the transfer window.

Kovacic and Nunes were average to poor buys.

Treble winners should be doing better than that.

I’m not one for sticking the boot in on players but I said this when we bought them.

Absolutely baffling buys.

Certainly some clubs who would be crying for this

 

[Tevez City]

Lets not pretend that Jack was going to score that chance :)



Anyway, I feel disappointed

Hopefully Kevin will come back soon to help the team retain the title.

I feel for Gvardiol ,being signed to play at left back where he's probably never played before. This lack of a left back is hurting us this season, absolutely ridiculous how we haven't signed a proper one in years now

Played there a few times but not his natural position. If you are not going to play him in his natural position buy a left back.

 

[RACHACE]

We are literally in a top 4 fight now. We look like a shell of the team last season, even when that team had a bad period.

Played 14 games pal. We're literally in a decent enough position to be in with a shout of winning the title for the 4th season in a row.
