Sigh. McAtee will be off.

Shame but he's not good enough for us tbh.

Based on what?

Well if he's not good enough for Dad's army's walking wounded who is he good enough for?

Looked decent last week did more on 15 mins than the majority of the others in 90

Probably based on the 8 previous appearances this year.

But as I said I would have put him in now. Foden is a liability, can't create, can't score, certainly can't track back and tackle

McAtee not playing ?

And why should he !!! He only changed the game when he came on and played a blinder and so for that pep has quite rightly benched him.

Fucking bald knob .

Same was said about palmer and Alvarez !

I hope he does leave and then becomes a 100 million pound player like the other 2.

Baldy knows what he’s doing - ask any of the above 3 .

What about when he came on in the CL and scored? All the matches pre-season?

[Sideshow Bob]

[Mase]

Foden is so bad now

[Mase]

Should be 1-0 to them. Josko is a terrible terrible player

[Dubciteh]

Any joans?

Mcatee was never going to hut at least deserves more minutes so i expect him to get another 30 today

[Mase]

Pep telling Foden to get up
