From what we've seen of Gonzalez so far he looks lightweight and weak. Never going to fill Rodri's boots. One mistake and he's now looking for the exit door.

I bet you were calling Roderi crane. Give the fella a chance. The state of that pitch

No, Rodri looked class from even the pre-season games when he signed. Gonzalez, I hope he comes good but I don't like players that try to claim a cheap foul rather than be strong. As soon as you give the ref the decision rather than keeping it in your own hands then it can go either way. I didn't like the way he looked for an out by claiming he was injured rather than trying to play on.

Rodri was pants for a year

That is a fact

[john@staustell]

O’Reilly having a poor game and Mcatee been anonymous so far. The young lads need to do more to justify breaking in

They're very poor

[hyper]

Has Grelaish bet on himself to not have a single shot this game?

Well he had the first one so I hope not.

So he even fucked that up.

Did I read somewhere Mcatee was the standout between him palmer and Delap? Must have been Stevie wonder watching them

[Outcast]

Has Pep banned his players from long range shooting?

[Redna]

Marmoush has turned to shit after just a couple of weeks.

[HBlock Cripple]

Fucking pathetic this

Apart from the odd flashy goal, I've never seen him do anything in general play

[PeterParker]

Has Pep banned his players from long range shooting?

Of course. "Vinnie, don't shoot!"

[CTID Hants]

Reis isn't afraid getting stuck in, some decent tackles by him so far...

[john@staustell]

No need to panic yet. Typical cup tie. They'll be completely shagged out second half.

Panic at 75

[s1ty m]

I am not sure Pep knows what to do. That was abysmal. 1-11.

[PeterParker]

Reis isn't afraid getting stuck in, some decent tackles by him so far...

Indeed, he is the only plus side today. He looks quite decent.

[blues2win]

Most encouraging performance so far Reis as you say.

[Bluemoon16]

Reis isn't afraid getting stuck in, some decent tackles by him so far...

He looks promising!

[Redna]

Another pathetic half. No movement but when ball goes back or sideways.
Slow and predictable.
Grealish just stands at the sideline and when given the ball lose it asap.

[CTID Hants]

Has Pep banned his players from long range shooting?

Of course. "Vinnie, don't shoot!"

We've scored more from outside the box in the league than any other team

Us 9

Chelsea and forest 8

Gooners 6

[PeterParker]

Ortega has been a catastrophic since he got that bollocking on the field after Brentford.
Proper man management there.

PS: And Micah Richards is an absolute fucking clown. ban the fucker.

[carolina-blue]

Poor 1/2 we look so disjointed

[blues2win]

Should be well up and we’re one down with our midfield hope off injured. Gundo and Marmoush guilty of bad misses. Confident we’ll turn it round but having Nico for Tuesday would be a real blow.
