A lot of people digging out Ake but is there seriously no recognition of how he is supported by Jack when they're on the pitch together? They play well together, with Jack often popping up to help out Ake, and today that didn't happen. Jack gets far too little appreciation for what he does defensively.A proper smash and grab, they did fuck all but be aggresive and time waste.
we were no terrible, but showed a soft underbelly and lack of strength
However Kovacic and foden were piss weak and bullied all game, unless he asked taking nunes off was a poor decision that only made us look weaker
Doku, great on the ball but he needs to support his fullback when out of possesion the first goal wouldn't happen if he tracked back.
Finally our fans haave forgotten we don't always win, some right moany fuckers stood round me
To be fair he usually waits for themYou mean like happens to Grealish every single game?
Yet if a couple of our attempts had gone in and they hadn't fluked theirs the tone on here would have been completely different.It wasn’t a fluke that we were hopelessly exposed on the left every time the ball broke in midfield… Ake needed cover and the continuance of giving it to Doku to run at the defender (who had an excellent game) and lose possession to invite those attacks on was madness
Unfortunately Pep got it very wrong today
Maybe so for the goals there was nothing any winger could have done to help. Foden certainly could have helped on the first but fair play to Neto he had Ake on toast and that’s very unusualA lot of people digging out Ake but is there seriously no recognition of how he is supported by Jack when they're on the pitch together?

That is a good point.....he is good as a team player.A lot of people digging out Ake but is there seriously no recognition of how he is supported by Jack when they're on the pitch together?

We have very few clear cut chances today - credit to Wolves they setup exceedingly well and defended superblyYet if a couple of our attempts had gone in and they hadn't fluked theirs the tone on here would have been completely different.
Very few goals are "worldies" , many are more luck than judgement, that's how the game is. All this is, is the same old embarrassing garbage that comes out every time we lose a match.
