"We are killing the players , we need 5 subs every match:"......................

Fucking hilarious.

They just wait until our players get knackered and then use their young pacey players to turn us inside out.

Seems a pattern

We as fans see it. Staggering how our manager doesn’t

[aaron bond]

Pep needs to completely revamp the defence. We’re so vulnerable to long ball. Walker and Dias have been abysmal all season. Gvardiol is clearly not a left back.

Dropping Akanji was a good start but more needs to be done. We are incapable of keeping clean sheets and are throwing away so many points in the last minutes.

[Beefymcfc]

Did we get sloppy because they were thinking the game was won and looking at the WCC? Sorry, I’d have preferred 3 points here.

Although, other things may bring us down to reality.

[carolina-blue]

Fucking bunch of Cunts way to sign off for the match going fans. You fucking load of twats fuck ime livid all Fucking pay today to go to charity you cunts deserve fuck all twats

[Mase]

And Walker throwing a fit in the summer has fucked up our defence more than anything. Hes starting every match because Pep is scared.

He used Stones as a RB towards the end of the season and it worked - we were solid.

No subs, another break against tired legs down the right, stupid swing out and lo and behold the kings in sky blue have shown what fucking idiots they are. Seen theis coming all second half . We stopped running 20 minutes ago thinking we had it in the bag.

Another 2 points dropped. Another piss poor performance . A draw snatched from the jaws of victory. I'm sorry but Walker was piss poor all game. No penetration up front, no attacking at pace at all, Grealish looked to be getting better but faded out of it. Alvarez still at his best, Gvardiol playing out of position he's not an overlapping full back.

Tired legs all round and we just didn't clear our lines well enough. A fresh Palaxe could have taken all the points if they had a pair of balls.

Another shite performance but never mind they're all going to fuck off for a mickey mouse tournament so they can relieve a congested Festive Christmas.

The commentator said few in the stadium saw that happening but they must have been fucking blind or stupid or both. Getting too frequent Pep

[stevefromdonny]

Baldie makes no subs - his fault

He bitched and whined about wanting 5 and the fucking idiot never makes any .

i wish someone ask him why he wanted 5 subs and then dont play any at all, i wonder who tells the players to fuck about with the ball near the other teams area, is it pep who says so or the idoits who play

[Blue In Bolton]

Truly fucking abysmal. Where do you begin with that shit show?

[Grandad Rosler]

Don't forget though we go on amazing mid season runs and end up winning the league in style!.

Not a fucking chance this season.

[Mase]

Positives - Doku, Haaland and Kev to come back.
Negatives - Defence is as fragile as my ego.

[Indianablue]

Not a performance of champions. Awful 2nd half.

Has there been one this season?

[s1ty m]

I just want to know why didn't mastermind start Stones?

Only he knows. Preferred him in a meaningless game on Wednesday. Poor decision, evidently. Not as poor as the decisions on the transfer market, though, fuck me, they are whoppers.

[Bluemoon16]

Cheers Phil. Don't release the ball to Bernardo then run in to traffic, then dart back and muy Thai the cunt in the box. Well played dickhead.

Phil tends to do this a lot actually & every time we've lost points he was often involved in unnecessarily losing possession & oppositions scoring as a result. But what he's done today is simply unforgiveable by not passing to Bern/running into a wall of opposition players, losing the ball & running back to award them a stupid penalty in the dying minutes of the game.

IMO there is a direct correlation between the lack of subs and the number of late goals we concede. We look tired and leggy after 80 minutes whilst the opposition bring on fresh legs and punish us.

Even Stuart Fucking Pearce would understand this

It’s absolutely insanity at the moment. He is playing two, or three if you count Rico out of position and two of them are on the back. Then you have Walker and Ederson who are piss poor this season and we get our defence ripped apart.

Then you have a really reduce squad with either injured players or not at this level.

At the moment, winning the Club Wc must be our main target. Coz i can’t see us win any other thing, even if Kevin is back.
We look like a social experiment at the moment.

Against the Rags was our only one.

why do our players think that they can go past 3-4 players, he should of kicked it to bern or kick it against one of the palace players to go out for a throw

[Indianablue]

For all the Grealish supporters, this was probably his best effort at a decent game this season but after he pats himself on the back for scoring and assisting the other he then thinks he's done enough and fades away. Does anyone seriously think he has ever justified his vastly inflated price tag ( not his fault) and taken a game by the scruff of the neck and truly frightened an opponent.
For me Souness was more right than wrong.
Stones Kovetic Bobb Nunes Phillips, surely some fresh legs to provide cover against the inevtable Palace tactic of hanging on, stay within reach and fuck us on the break against tired legs.
