Poch failed, simple as. This was on him today, and the past eight months as well.
If you waste the first 45 minutes every single game - every, single, f*cking, game, (I think we've failed to score in 23 of our last 27 first halves)n you only have 45 minutes to do anything. Wasn't enough today.
And, to be honest, he is starting to worry me with how inept he's getting, despite seemingly getting more of what he wants in terms of backing.
Coach your damn team to do more than be this turgid and aimless, please.
I dont think Poch wants to be here, maybe we asked for to much compo from Madrid and he is tinkled off?
A big wake up call. We have been winging it since Jan. Poch needs to clear his head and go back to doingthe basics well. No. 1 is fast passing, 2 work on movement to unlock teams. Without Eriksen our midfield looked short on ideas.
Could not agree more.
Being prone to conspiracy theories I wonder if he is leaving Eriksen out to prove a point to Levy that we cant sell him, he has still rather deluded I think been talking about Eriksen signing a new contract, so maybe he wants him to stay the year and this is his way of forcing Ley's hand.
I think you'll be waiting a while mate.

I think you may be on to something there. He seems at loggerheads with the world at the moment.
The official VAR line is that there wasn't enough evidence to overturn Dean's subjective decision.
Easy for the refs to let things go thinking VAR will sort it out, but VAR won't touch it.
What was up with Kane today? He looked well off it.
If you play Mourra and Son they have to be running in behind the full-backs, not waiting for it for feet all the time. City are a lesson in movement against deep sitting teams - one we need to learn.
Thing is we started with width
Then the manager abandoned it for our famous all attacking players hold hands formation.
Kane behind Lucas while Winks sprays it sideways very slowly and at times inaccurately.
Then makes the subs and sticks Lo Celso right wing.
We seem to have no identity as a team and it's been going on for ages.
