Can't blame him when the defence in front of him are shite


He's part of that defence which yeah it was shit but he wasn't great on any of them. He's great with his feet but last line of defence is not his strongest point.


Made two class saves on Saturday to stop Spurs winning by 6!

We are threadbare. He was saving players for the key game on Sunday.

Resting Foden, Ake and Gundo was sensible manager.

The team left on was still strong enough to hold into a 3 goal lead for 20 minutes.

That's on the players and their soft as shit mentality.

Weak cunts. No leaders

If this carries on..

Its 90% on his changes.

Also the attitude of these cunts which is also on pep. When did they turn into a team that blags a goal then smokes a cigar the deluded fucks.

Honestly, a defeat here and Pep needs to seriously consider whether he can actually turn this around


Agree. It’s on him. Too many changes at once. We were coasting and then making three changes.

All three goals from our left side

Thought the first goal came from our right with a header across to Gvardiol in the centre who then knocked it back and gave it away. May be wrong

If baldy cannot fucking work with a team that has lost a few first team players, then yes , maybe we have shot the gun on extending his reign .

His management lately has been a joke - and it continues to be a joke .

We look lost and rudderless

Yep, shocking collapse. We have zero ability to hold fast and defend

I’m speechless. Completely lost for words. We missed Gundogan the moment he went off. God knows what we do on Sunday. Akanji at right back to counter Salah? Ake could play on the left. Dias and Stones if Johns fit which he probably won’t be. Nunes and Gundogan were really good today Rico did nothing wrong. Nothing Grealish tried came off but I’d play him again. Easy to say there should have been no subs but we looked comfortable and he was thinking of Sunday. Nothing could have prepared us for that collapse. Shocking. Sickening. Demoralising. Gvardiol at fault although I think big Ed didn’t cover himself with glory. Gvardiol had done well until the first goal then but that’s wiped out by his awful mistakes.

It didn't take much thought to get a message out to all his players when we were 3 upand made 3 subs , to hold on to the ball, grind it out and come off having done a job. Instead we still go at it, give away the ball, and concede. Once they got one goal back, most watching feared what was going to happen.vif I was a betting man I should have put 50 quid on them getting 3

This high line is killing us. Walker or Lewis play like attacking midfielders, we have no defensive midfieldrs and are so vulnerable to teams playing quick ball on the break.

Really should be Akanji on the left of course to counter Salah but then he’s needed in the middle

Exavtly stop this right back stepping in to midfield. Was fine for the treble n to beat the bus but atm we cant buy a clean sheet

Rico or akanji (stay at fucking right back)
Dias
Ake
Gvardiol (no other option)


For five straight games

Salah plays on the right. Not being pedantic, just saying. He'll rinse Gvardiol, I wince at the thought.

Have to put Ake at left back, and bring in Dias if he's fit.
Josko does not need another game like tonight.
Play a solid back 4 and even go false 9.

Stranger than fiction. I still think we'll recover, hope it's on Sunday. Nice to see Jack enjoying himself though, the quick free kick gifting them the equaliser was almost as cheeky as the pass for Spurs fourth on Saturday. He'll be having a good giggle about it tonight.

Ignoring all the shite and how preventable the first two goals were and taking the last one-
Why was defence so high when3-2 up to even allow the ball in over the top like that, sit back a few yards and see it out
Ederson comes charging out , if you don’t get the ball take the fucking man out , stop the goal and take the red card keep the extra points, Ortega comes on play last few minutes with10 and Ortega plays next match, hardly a disaster
Lewis runs back in, least he was making it back but ffs look at him when he is there , man running in has the run on him fair enough but challenge the man , jump up even if can’t get him don’t turn your back and coward down as the ball is going past you. For all his tidy touches on the ball I just don’t rate him defensively, too soft and too small
