Zinchenko apologies for wife’s criticism of Pep

[Tugay One Cup]

it should of stayed in house and not in the public domain.

If your thinking he was right to say it then that's your view.

Be interesting to see what the club etc think of it

Players analyse our tactics with the media all the time. I think some of you are just being sensitive about it this time because we got embarrassed again in a Champions League quarter final.

He was and nothing was said by other players about it. It was largely kept in the dressing room, as I said.

So how come everyone knew about it?

There were no other coherent points in the entire post, that's why I didn't bother. The bit about people being out of position is simply bollocks, and the rest is just babbling.

You're incapable of just discussing the decisions made before the game honestly, you have to keep inventing things and ignoring the context. We aren't Bayern Munich, we have shown time and time again this season we have serious flaws, which is why we're buying 2 CBs.

Now if you could acknowledge the flaws we have at the back, the terrible record against teams playing like Lyon, the fact Lyon are in fact a decent side etc. without the need to keep inventing things like "the players had never played it before" or "every single player in the backline was out of position", then there can be a proper discussion about if Guardiola was right to choose the solutions to the problems that he did, or if Lyon scoring twice easily when we were in our 433 shape showed how vulnerable we were, or how actually even in that defensive shape we created 4 or 5 chances to score and the players bottled them.

Babbling? Incoherent? I'm pretty sure you're talking about a different post.

The one I'm talking about was pretty simple and very specific.

Happy to surmise further for you if you're still struggling: No matter how sound a team shape looks on paper - if the players are ill-suited, ill-experienced and uncomfortable in their roles, the team shape is irrelevant.

Pep got it wrong. You're still persisting with this silly idea that you've found some kind of smoking gun insight that no one else has thought of that we lost to other teams playing 352, so Pep was justified. But everyone's just laughing at you, mate.

I don’t really give a fuck what’s been said, all I know is his mrs is fit as fuck. What a lucky bastard he is.

This is the only opinion that matters.

Without rules there is no society it is a free for all, today s no different to let's say 100 years ago where society was shocked by whatever scandal or revelation the newspapers printed, the only difference is that it gets out there quicker now.

The abnormality we have now is that there is a very vocal minority who manage to get their agendas bumped to the top with the aid of the press jumping on every bandwagon. In the case of Zinchenko and his wife, they would have been criticised a 100 years ago if what she said had came out in the press, back then she wouldn't have had a platform to do that so it would have been a non starter.

And join the rest ...

Shocking from Zinchenko and his Mrs.
Let's hope Pep ditches him.
What we have hear is a bang average footballer who has nice wife and is obsessed with social media and saying something that should have been kept out of the public domain.
