AGAIN the lack of clinical finishers cost us.
Neither Jesus or Sterling could convert their chances.
Sterling is done as a city player, was once good but looks finished for a while now. Jesus is just not good enough for this team, end of story.
Both just have to go.

The beeb panel are rightly pointing out Pep wanting fives subs but rarely using any, this horrible Pep you have lost more fa cup semi finals than any manager in the history of the club

I do not like Klopp, but he makes better use of what he is available than Pep

I think we are harsh on Steffen.
Shit like this happens with our gk, they are lunatics and agree he couldn't handle the pressure and was unlucky also, maybe the sun played a part, Stones was with his hands near his eyes the full first half.

I will give him a pass because it's really his first huge mistake that lead to this, as a City player.
When this will become "natural", like with Bravo, then he needs to go.

There are other things that made us lose today, not his mistake.

Cole Palmer proved when he got his chance he was up to the job, before he got injured. I'm not saying we should throw Delap, McAtee etc into the battle, but they should have all got more game time than they have, in games we were winning. Then they would have been more prepared than they are.
I know we seem to be using the Foden template of bringing in gradually, but I do think some of our kids should have had more first team football then they have.
If they had, youthful, energy and creativness with the positivity that brings would be a much better weapon, than Sterling and the old tried and tested

Abysmal first half , Steffen nowhere near the starting eleven ever again .
Liverpool are so overhyped it’s unreal , they just scraped through against our C team without a goal keeper .

Sterling and Steffen need to be sold this summer .

This is all on Pep he is a complete egotistical CUNT. He thinks his bigger than the club he can go fuck right off.

[hayling22]

I think Carson would have done better, at least he has experience...I just don't get rewarding the 2nd keeper with the cups..Play your best when it matters most always. Keepers don't get burned out like the rest, maybe it affects them mentally, but Ed doesn't look like someone who is stressed out

[Harry Dowd scored]

Another thing that really pissed me off, Pep has shown the nation they are better than us because he picked such a dysfunctional team, fucking ridiculous to pick Steffen instead of Eddie after his shit performance against Saints this feels just as bad as the CL final fuck up

[PeterParker]

My fear is that we are going to make these cunts bigger than they actually are, like Chelsea last year.
