We don't
He was a panic buy


Definitely was but he has quality, we need to find a way to bring it out of him.

Like you say, a front two is the obvious way.

I'd love us to go back to 442 just to see if it will work in the modern game

The starting 11 wasn't our strongest team, they have no experience of playing as a complete unit and we have no real focal point up front

This game was over with the daft bald fucker starting line up.

0-2 down now he throws on Haaland in the hope he might get fucked for the Season.

This is so so easy for them. We are being picked apart and bossed. They shrug off our challenges easily. Haaland has had a couple of chances but he can have 10 and not score

Who is our set piece coach? We are clueless, Starting to think getting rid of KDB wasn't a good move

I know a few of you are annoyed at pep for the line up and in a way I agree, don't fuck about with a team finding some semblance of momentum. However, this lot are absolutely good enough to control and win this game. A lot of the lads out there want looking at themselves. Sav, Rudolph, bobby, ake, I'm looking at you.

Savinho is so poor. Fucking incredible the opportunities Pep gives him. Awful player.

Those are players he brought or kept.
Players who have a decent game per season.
