West Brom (h) post-match thread

[balotelli's back pocket]

Sick of Sterling to be honest. An absolute bottler. He’s been a great player for us but I’d swap him for Grealish tomorrow.

What the fuck have I just read

 

[southstandsteve]

The only positive to that performance is that i haven't paid to watch it,absolute dross..so frustrating,

 

[DavidWhitesUnderpants]

We need a striker in Jan to save this season, I can’t watch a team miss gilt edge chances week after week it’s torture.

We need a lot more than a striker my friend. We just don't gel as a team anymore. Not in the way we used to. Not even close.

 

[borassic]

Foden offered nothing in that game, if you can't see that you're willfully ignorant.

The double pivot is not the reason we failed to win this game. Gundogan was our best threat by a mile.

So when chasing a game who would you rather have on the pitch, Foden or Rodri?

 

[WickyWain]

So so happy

 

[Ric]

Cancelo, Mendy and Rodri were beyond awful tonight. Not many of the others were much better.

 

[Damanino]

Miss your chances and you will pay the price. Story of our season.

Klopp and Mourinho is laughing at Chelsea's and our result today and rightly so.

It was a must win if we want the title, not many weaker teams will visit the Etihad this season, and we could not beat them. Only upped the tempo last 25 minutes, wtf was the another 65 minutes.

Absolute fuck up by Pep not to win this, and worst is Soton away coming up and they did the same to us last season and this season they are actually so much better so far.

I am very worried that the game in hand vs Villa everyone expecting it to be extra 3 points, even some rivals, but it will be similarly 1 point like this game.

 

[rapidCT]

If we had played the game with the intensity of the last 5 min, we would have scored 10. Reminds me of the first season under Pep with Bravo in net.

 

[MillsyTheMosher]

Hopefully some of the members on here will now start realising I was correct.

Any manager other than Pep would have been sacked by now for what we did last season and so far this.

As for Rodri- he’s a huge part of the problem.

 

[hardman4city]

Can someone tell me how Cancello stayed on after that performance?! How bad does he have to play to get subbed?!

 

[Hercules]

Arteta will get fired from Arsenal very soon and he can come back and become 4th Assistant. That might help our style of play. Lol

 

[Mancini Manus Domini]

I thought Rodri and Mendy were awful. De Bruyne and Sterling look jaded. The only players who played well were Gundogan and Cancelo.

 

[SWPISHOME]

We’re as bad as the rags, genuinely.

Saturday evening proved that.

 

[Man-chester copperpot]

1 shot on target and.........1 goal!
Maybe it’s time we sat back each game and let the opposition play about.
Just try and score on the break....2 attacks, 2 shots, 2 goals and sit back

 

[Dicko75]

Whole team are lacking energy - can’t be bothered, first 75 minutes nothing and then it’s too late.... Pep has huge work to do to motivate this lot

 

[WestGorton]

Everyone was awful except for Gundogan.

Best player this season.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

12 league games... 5 (FIVE) wins...

Pep has to be criticised, I know many can’t bear the thought of that, but he has to be.

 

[kupest]

If you think there wasn't a vast difference between the first and the second half today then you probably need much bigger glasses than that.

 

[Paul1970]

we win a couple of games and we are right near the top of the league. Ridiculous post from a wet lettuce

See this is the problem on here No matter much shit pep serves up anyone who god forbid says anything negative about pep gets pulled down well tonight that was fucking atrocious but hey ho pep is doing a remarkable job and we are doing fine . Can’t wait for his 34 year old mate to arrive and save the day .

 

[Moggzy]

Can’t have 27 shots and score 1.

Jesus, sorry. Not good enough. It’s taken me a while to be of that opinion, but he doesn’t offer enough. Kid was born offside!

We need a proper no.9 or maybe 2 !!
