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

Well he had the first one so I hope not.

Has Pep banned his players from long range shooting?

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

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

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

Panic at 75 :D

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

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

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.

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.

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.
