Chelsea CL final. We had the best side on the planet and we weren't close to being on par with anyone.

The fucking oddest of selections for god knows what reason and we make Kai fucking Havertz look like a world class striker.

Fast forward to last night, oddest of selection for god knows what reason and Valverde had ZERO goals from 9 CL appearances this season, first half hattrick.

Pep carrying on...

I'm also prepared, quite looking forward to the change now. Be interesting how long the new guy gets before he's getting battered on here.
Interestingly his team selection on Saturday was slaughtered on here before the game and we went through comfortably whereas his team selection yesterday was pretty well received on here other than Savinho.

He got it wrong yesterday as playing 2 wingers plus Semenyo and Haaland meant we were always light in midfield especially when 1 of the 2 is Silva. He put Khus at right back to try and stop Viniscus but he's poor going forward so we lost a lot there.

I said a few weeks ago it probably is time for him to go now, I'm also as pissed off about the political stuff as many others but when he goes it will be with massive thanks for the best years, the best football, the multiple records and trophies and even in this boring year we've scored joint most league goals with Arsenal having played a game less.

I am ok with a cup and top four next year IF we play some football and players play their natural roles and we get rid of deadwood and bring quality players. See some fucking plan, that is all that I am asking.

I want to lose in front of a better team, not because of this constant scenario.

Nico G and Rodri should have been in the middle. Not sure just leaving Rodri on his own was the best idea.

Khus defends well - he’s actually doing his job properly. The problem is Savinho (the little shit) — he’s the one who’s supposed to bomb forward, get to the byline and deliver crosses, but he’s been useless at it.
By the way, I hope Pep thanks the club too. They’ve given him 25 million a year, unlimited funds to buy basically whoever he wants, and basically let him do whatever he wants with the team and structure. He’s been handed every possible resource to succeed — and for the most part, he has. He’s delivered exactly what he was paid to do.
That said, in the Champions League he’s been dire, in my opinion.
Giving thanks goes both ways: we thank him for the success, and he should thank the club for the extraordinary backing. He didn’t do it for fucking free !!
As for giving the next manager “enough time” — they get paid to produce results, mate. Look at how quickly things turn at Spurs. If the next guy struggles over even a 10-game stretch, there’ll be no hiding place andas always , I’ll be here ))))

You know Simeone is the best paid manager in the world right, how's his trophy count.

The thing is it can't be just pep. We have too many not as good bottle jobs and we are stuck with them without characters/ leaders.

Even the new boys aren't as good. Guehi should have scored. So should semenyo.

Exactly where i am at mate.

This myth that our core fan base demand Trophies is absolute bollocks.

Older fans have been brought up on the occasional Cup run and looking forward to Derbies twice a year.

One thing life was it was never dull excluding Pearce era. We had many players not technically gifted, but they always put a shift in, and we loved them for it. They went on the Pitch played for the shirt many became club icons. We knew we were only the noisy neighbour back in the Day but we didn't give a fuck.. We had what the Rags never had a true Manc following the only true. Manchester Club. Men and Women from all working class areas of Manchester.

When i hear some of Pep sycophants making out we are high maintenance it enrages me, are we fuck.

All we want is to enjoy our football, connect with our players, see that 11 on the Pitch are actually putting a shift in.

And right now that is not happening. We have a squad and a manager stealing a living, putting in 45 minutes here and there. Even when they play for 45 minutes here and there it is horrible boring insipid football. It actually feels like the passing for passing sake is to run down the Clock to the final Whistle. Let us do the bare minimum over exertion, just pass our way from the first Whistle to the last. Fans deserve full refunds this season for the slop put out on that Pitch. Players going through the motions. It is horrible to watch, it isn't entertainment is the product of a Manager who needs to be evaluated mentally if he thinks that is easy on the Eye to watch.3 Seasons of decline. Our last Title win it was already evident his brand of football was in decline.

Last Season he should have tried to evolve his game. He didnt, his arrogance came through, only his style was the way, and it was evident it wasn't any more.

So we have had 2 full Seasons of rinse and repeating a style that is so yesterday. At the same time thrown in to the mix i think heis losing it mentally. I have wondered once or twice if he has deliberately stitched us up in some games to punish us fans for his mood swings. That Derby at the Swamp springs to mind where he inexplicably made the Rags look like peak Real Madrid. At the time the Rags were Dog shit and only threat came from counters we could have been 5-0 down at half time. It defied belief how he left the midfield wide open. Ironically it was a bit similar to Madrid away last Tuesday. Yesterday after the game at Werst Ham his sarcastic laughing telling the press they can criticize him now ,wtf was that about ?.Always about him. I wish someone would have asked him why they only creative player in the squad Cherki can not get on the pitch and start in a must win game .

I just want to go back to enjoying the football and being being entertained again.

Right now opening a tin of magnolia paint and staring at it for 90 minutes is preferable.

If it means clearing out the dead wood including Manager and 2 years rebuilding and trying something different i am happy.

City fans don't need instant gratification.

Pulling in 30,000 dies hard fans in Division 2 should anyone that.

It does not matter whether Pep stays or somebody else comes in, it is clear that the rebuild is still on and some need to up their game or be moved on. Foden, Reijnders, doku.

As was proven by tin tin , gundo. Feed Haarland and he will get goals.

Now not accepting the offer for Savio seems a bit silly. He could go as well. Sadly definitely not lived up to the promise and footy he played at Girona.

How much longer? Our defence at corners is woeful, Our offence at corners is worse. i think corners 13 and 14 actually got revised last night and we stopped trying to wrestle players on the goal line but Haaland didn't seem to understand what to do. Only improved when Doku and Cherki came on but Doku is like a duracell bunny on speed and didn't produce much . Cherki did well. My question is why weren't they on from the start when Pep wanted wingers in Madrid. Honestly think Pep is just trying different combos and doesn't know what to do.

Time for a change yes but who bottled it when we won by 18 points in the Centurions. Did Liverpool bottle it coming 2nd with 98 points

What gets me is Pep is obviously Obsessed with politics in the Middle East, that by definition is controversial he travels to another country with his keffifeh fucking scarf preaching pro terrorist propaganda & I get fucking banned for calling him out for it. You couldn’t make this shit up. Fuck off Pep out of Manchester. The place where women & children were slaughtered by the people you advocate. If I am banned for this so be it. But everything I say is true. I live in Derry so I know the misery terrorists inflict.
