The last to know are those involved, Peps been fucking amazing and changed football in this country, unfortunately the apprentices/copycats have overtaken us.

You can only reinvent the wheel so many times.

How many great teams have ever lost 5 on the bounce nevermind to average teams.

Five defeats on the bounce is relegation form. Not saying that we're heading that way, but fuck me, we're bad.

I'd agree but who does he bring in to a team low in confidence?

We have young players on the bench who would put a shift in, I’d honestly start there. Why can’t Grealish play in the middle? Gundo wasn’t brought back to play 2/3 games a week and it showing. Mcatee can’t get a look in, I’d give him a go. Jacob Wright is another. They aren’t going to do any worse.

We can change our pattern of play. We play so high and commit too many forward whilst doing absolutely nothing with the ball. We should currently just focus on being hard to beat.

 

[Damanino]

hard to see this is getting significantly better with the form so low and quite a few injured players which list will grown ever match...
and the ones coming back from injuries have a form like shit.

we have Liverpool away, Palace away, Villa away and rags at home in our next 5 PL games. is it like 4-5 points maximum? with this form not even that.

As Pep has been unable to solve the Rodri sized hole in the middle of the pitch, we need to dispense with the attacking wingers and flood the pitch with midfielders who can retain possession and defend when we don't have the ball.

Bernardo and Grealish wide.

The three between them Foden, and then I'm stuck. Maybe we have to play Savinho and Doku to allow Bernardo to play inside. But that's not working. Frankly it's a mess.

Think that's what Pep has been hoping Kovacic, Gundogan, Lewis and Bernardo would provide but hasn't been dissuaded by performances & results. We need players who can win the ball, track runners and then pass it over a short distance to more creative players.

 

[East Level 2]

we know there's a 20% they buy one player and 80% they sign no one.

And the one they sign will be loaned out somewhere we've never heard of.

0-4 is a bigger defeat!
Lost by 4
First Champions to lose 5 in a row for 70 years

When it’s 5 league games I’ll start worrying ;)

 

[Moggzy]

Anyone else think we haven’t rebuilt the squad due to the 115 charges and potential outcome??

 

[manimanc]

WTF does that even mean you fucking yank weirdo, i know you lot like fucking kids but come on

Hey pal no need for that or from Chicago blue too.

Emotions are high, peeps are a bit pissed, retaliate by all means but come on we're better than that.

Not the end of the world is it.

Today's performance wouldn't have looked out of place on the joke thread.

Today's result

That RODRI sign for the Ballon D’or ceremony would have done a better job in midfield than Gundogan and Lewis. At least the R looks like it’s sticking out a leg.
