What he wants and what he gets are miles apart. The squad just stung good enough.

Been here two weeks pal give him a chance ffs

 

[eteb]

Right I know he’s only been here a couple of weeks but if this is his blueprint we’re knackered

Back to sheezy is it? Worlds apart

I'm calling it now. Mostly those who are moaning are all mad . Im not saying we have been amazing, but you can see that we are closing them down and unfortunate on a few passes. Calm down everyone

It's going to take more than a bit of closing down to stay in the league lad.

 

[Malaga]

First goal vital in this 1, think we're not too far off creating a convertible chance (yes, have had vino )

To be fair, he could be prime Pep and you would claim he was crap.

Give him a chance. The stuff he’s in charge of, line up, tempo, pressing, getting forward more quickly isn’t the problem. The problem is our players aren’t very good.

That was a fairly even game between two pretty ordinary teams, much like Saturday was for the first 30 mins.

I can see a 1-0 either way. Usually we lose in these types of games so hopefully tonight will be different

I thought the purpose of Widdel playing is he links up with Idah..

Again is everyone watching the same match? Your telling me you don't see what he is trying to do? He literally has had 1 week full training without his back room coaches and trying to improve our fitness and mentality.

It helps if Idah actually makes an offer to feet for Widell or Franco but whenever they have the ball and look up he’s nowhere near

Some embarrasing comments from a few nameless posters on here tonight.

They see what they want to see mate. Has ever been thus

Very dull first half with 2 poor teams.
We seem to lack quality in the final 3rd and I think it's calling out for Vipotnik and I would even move Idah out to the right side.
VIP on for Ronald and Inoussa on for Eom. Eom has been very poor 1st half and very weak when facing his own goal.

Yes I can see what he’s trying to do Pep and it’s pretty shite.
