Pep had absolutely zero idea in that 2nd half. We needed physicality and got none. Haaland should have been hooked at half time. For someone keen to chase personal records, his efforts were piss poor.
Last week the manager was prepared to swap every player, this week they're all glued to the fucking bench.
The result papers over some pretty large cracks.
Not changed my mind from last season Pep should go sooner rather than later

Which players got a dressing down after the match?

I know he can’t score every game but fuck me he was just lolloping around yesterday with no hunger, aggression or will to do anything. I love him to bits obviously, but his lack of effort in his last couple of games is truly baffling.

It’s Deja vu every other game.Todays result and performance was a joke - a fucking joke.
We won’t be in the top 2 for long.

Savinho is a mystery, but beyond that I think other than Haaland and more recently Doku and Foden, I wonder if the biggest issue is that he doesn't know who his best team is in defence and midfield. I certainly can't figure it out - there's nobody in midfield truly standing up to be counted, John Stones coming on is evidence he thinks we're really lightweight in midfield.
Nico, Silva and Reindeers appear to be first choice, but there are times like last night and a few other times this season when they have blown really hot and cold and been close to being overrun, and the only solution at that point is to hook foden and/or doku and try and shore it up. I don't think Savinho can ever be the solution though - to any problem, and Pep is a cunt for keep playing him unless he knows somethig more than we do and is trying to play him into form.
Last night in the 2nd half was total deja vu of last season, overrun in midfield and the wings, and conceding with every attack, while Haaland wastes chances at the other end.
One consolation, it wasn't pass pass pass pass pass zzzzzzzz, I don't think it will be the last time this season we see a scoreline like this - and at 2nd in the table with 2 tight wins after a mid-game collapse, I'm just glad the rest of the league are shit........even though we are wank, we can still win the league, that's fucking insane.

woodwork twice, an assist and his 100th goal , beating Shearer's record by many games. Poor form eh ?

We can win the league. And so can the rags or Spurs or even Everton.
However in reality, we won't and top 5 and CL qualification, (assuming England maintains its coefficient position for an extra place), is what we are going for
