Haha ortega fuck me kid

Self destruction mostly. What chance do we have when we just give them goals.

We recovered from one fuck up, but by the second everyone's heads went right down

Offer Porto £100m for Costa and Gonzales. We need a new keeper asap

I’d be tempted to put the self destruction down to having no leader on the pitch for us. It’s slightly different when Dias is playing, but when he’s not we have no one that’s captain material.

Gonna be a shit February

Haaland stayed behind and led the applause for the Away end.

[Indianablue]

Just like to congratulate Arsenal on a fine victory.
For anyone prior to the match thinking we might get a result, or now saying 'I remember when we were really shite'and 'give your head a wobble' . Just fuck right off, then fuck off some more.
A result as dire as expected.
and with the impending CL play off games coming up, I'd say Pep will be lucky to get a 4th place.
Haaland poor today, never involved really.
Said a couple of seasons ago that we should have snapped up Chris Wood on basically stupid money. He would have been a more honest forward

[just sayin]

Shocking!!!!!!!!!

I think there's only Kova and Bernie who came out of that with any credit

[zabbadabbado]

Maybe Pep will go for a 4-1-4 against Liverpool rather than the trusted 4-2-4 that has served us so well recently

What ever get the Pop Corn in is going to be fucking horrendous and should come with an 18 warning.

Maybe he will to Catalunia and stay there.

Yes Please.

If i could see he was trying to change things i would be supportive.

Its the same shit being served up every week. He is compiling the fucking misery .Reason being we are struggling, and still he is trying to feed his inner genius with
his crazy tactics.

Last time we looked half decent as a team was against Forest he played Grealish in the middle. Pep Never didi it again.

I am sick of him trying to reinvent the Wheel, it is becoming boring.


We could sign a Holding Midfielder on Dead line day, he will then play him on the Right/Left wing week in week out

[Dub City]

No bollox and no fight once the second goal went in. Something that been the case far too many times this season. Standing off and letting them pass it around. One kick from Bernardo the only thing resembling fight out of them. Too easy to play against and far too open. If the midfield and full back reinforcement don’t come in there is no chance of top 4.

Stones was on one leg couldn’t run 80 minutes in, how he wasn’t replaced is beyond me , I would be shocked if he isn’t set for another spell on the sidelines now.

Could pick holes in every performance the mistakes, gifting them goals but the lack of fight is inexcusable.

Goal difference takes a battering aswell when it’s so close in run for 4th.

Worst part, them cunts are not even that good. They did nothing and we put them ahead then they can start playing when our heads drop. Would be shocked if they finish within 5 points of Liverpool. £800m plus spent and one FA cup and a charity shield they celebrate when only there cause we won a treble.

[Hazy2]

As soon as it’s put on us we fall apart. No legs. No chance. Take our medicine clear out needed.

[Sparklehorse]

I just saw a replay of the 2-1 from Phil's angle and I believe that the Arsenal player was stood behind the ref, do he didn't dee him. Still, a horrible pass to make.

No it was an inexplicably poor pass 100 % blame on Foden for that one !

[zabbadabbado]

Madrid and the dippers are gonna give us beatings a ginger step kid would be shocked at

[Harry Dowd scored]

I know the players fucked up, but more is going on behind the scenes, to many players seem okay at the end of a game but mysteriously turn up injured for next game. Pep is having a shocking season even the died hard fans say that. The only chance of top four will be if other teams fuck up worse than us.

[PeterParker]

Week in and week out we come back here and discuss what went wrong, blame x, blame y, but the truth is we are a proper agony to watch. I think they will use our passing as torture in Guantamo if we keep this up.

Players can come, but our tactics are the problem. Any manager that has half a brain can read and stop our strategy, while Pep feels like he either had finally that brain implosion, or, after 17 years, he was found out and his style became outdated and he is stuck.

And it's not fair for us. We have to go to work the next day or travel 1 mil miles to see a shit show like this one.

As a fan, I can accept defeat, what I can't accept is arrogant. And he is full of that.

The ref most certainly did not block the player. It was a naive and stupid pass to play across the midfield

[Beefymcfc]

Did anybody understand the set-up? I thought we’d see Sav from the right, expecting Marmoush to come in from the left, with Foden in the middle.

As for the defence and midfield, when we fucked up and gave them a goal for the second time in a game, we were always going to get caught on the break as the majority of those players were never getting back to stop it.

[PeterParker]

Did anybody understand the set-up?

What is not to understand?

[Harry Dowd scored]

City players getting shit from City fans on social media, main complaint being lack of giving a fuck after getting their arses handed to them 5-1 fucking hell.

[Grandad Rosler]

These post match interviews are absolutely painful, all about how amazing it was the manner in which they beat the champions but we simply just gave them the game. They were shite.
