Rodri is saying what Pep should be saying. We are City !!
Standards are high. We are playing like kids. Well said Rodders!

I don’t think he’s changed English football at all, he set new standards and the pack have caught up and he clearly has nothing in the locker to take the lead again. I think he’s now a negative influence, Jack has gone and is thriving, Palmer has gone and is thriving. It’s time for a new manager, I said at the beginning of the season that he’ll be gone by Christmas, I think it’ll be sooner. These very good players are playing inhibited football….that generally doesn’t win matches and certainly doesn’t win trophies.


He did change English football. He has influenced grass level football down to primary school kids in terms of his style of football. We can't just rewrite history because he's currently struggling.

He does need to evolve though and I think he's recognised that with the backroom appointments.

Seems like it's going to take a bit longer than we hoped.

For me the squad is full of pussies who can't dig in and fight.

They all need to take a look at themselves from Pep down to the players and every member of the staff and decide whether they're up. For the fight or not.

Need Fernandino to come back and hold a team meeting bollocking them all

Injured


Injured in the tackle the ref deemed a foul and from the free kick they scored.

Watched the highlights this morning.
It seems that yet again we are vulnerable to most teams that just say 'fuck it lets have a go at them. A few subs and several quick balls into our box and we fall apart. Having said this. Haaland should have done alot better with two attempts and Bobb missed a sitter.
Our finishing is not helping us.
