He needs to sort out the fact that Harry Kane can outrun Rodri who just lets him go and gives up. Not good enough, Ferna would never have let that happen. Net thought, Rodri is not good enough.

Gets caught in possession high up the pitch far too often and doesn't have the legs to get back. He's not the only one though. Sterling does the same when he tries to dribble through half the team as does Mahrez. It never used to be a problem because we used to win the ball back quickly now we're too lightweight and rarely win a 50/50. We lack intensity and have no ball winners at the moment. I just watched the dippers and their front 6 very rarely give the ball away and when they do they win it straight back. We haven't done that since the season before last.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

Difference from then is we had poor players that worked hard. Imagine Andy Morrison stood there watching whilst John Stones is wrestling and having a laugh with Joe Hart before the match has even begun. Stones would get filled in. Back then we still had leaders. We’ve got absolutely no one that the players are scared of in that dressing room.

I am not Rodris biggest fan but let’s be fair around him we have some fuckers contributing 0. Speaking with 2 pals, they both said we are in transition. Deal with it.

Transition is one thing but to have players who, on the surface, don't appear to give a fuck is another. Add to that the fact that Pep cannot / will not transition his playing style and we are going backwards.

Let's call it out as it is, Spurs are shite, but like the hobbit over the road, they and most of the other teams in the premier have Peps number. If that was the red shite on Saturday, the game goes the same way apart from the likely addition of pengys when martial and rashford are taken out by snipers on an enevitable counter.

To be writing this as we sit below the red shite makes is that more embarrassing. Everyone in the management team need to get their shit together as it is totally unacceptable

Against Liverpool Rodri did 0. Actual 0. No tackles, no blocks, no interceptions. Oh no he did 2 fouls.

Also we don’t press anymore , we used to be outstanding on the press but not anymore it isn’t in our makeup for some reason far too many soft cunts like Mahrez and Sterling . The steel has gone and our results are suffering.

Kev isn’t world class? Rodri just needs to be not in a position that requires someone who’s mobile and active. He’d be fine in Spain or Italy because of the pace of the game. Not here though.

KBB playing like an EFL player this season because our midfield system is shit . Currently he is expected to do too much plus run his fucking bollocks off he simply cannot carry this team it is asking far too much and he is suffering because of it . Now get another world class midfielder in there in front of Rodri and it changes everything. Fern when fit could adapt to that position his passing and engine would do a job for sure until another world class midfielder is bought .

PeP just needs another 500 million to spend and then we will be fine.

We so obviously should have bought Aouar. He was available and, by all accounts, wanted to come here.

He wants to sack his best mate who replaced Arteta......that ''jobs for the boys'' appointment was a fucking disgrace.

But this is what happens when you allow a manager to dictate.

I don’t think it changes the fact Rodri isn’t mobile or tactically aware enough to play that position. He’s not even as good as Barry at reading the game
