    @@billben6062You dont think keeping Haaland and De Bruyne to do the shootout would have increased thier chances to win instead of trash Kovacic and Bernado ? And yes he is right about Ten Hag. If he did this to his best players he would get buried in the media but Pep dont even get called out cause they love him.

People are forgetting he is only 23 years young and he broke almost every record he could last season in his FIRST season in the prem. He’s top class. City is currently not playing to his strengths and are honestly letting him down. He’s not getting crosses into the box, they are not trying to play him in… if i was Haaland i’d come out and say im not happy with this current play style.

    Not a fan of MC, but Haaland is an amazing player that keeps all defenders extremely busy. What happens is that the pressure is high, and the first rate teams now know how to play Pep's team. It is also known that Haaland and KDB had fights with Guardiola in the past, badly managed by Pep, unfortunately. But these amazing two fellas will win the PL in some weeks, and that's going to be a great consolation because the PL is the best league in the world.

    What about the possibility of Pep trying to find somebody else to pass the blame on? This is ridiculous from a coach to say it publicly. He has let them down big time. And even in the extremely unlikely possibility of the players asking to be subbed, this is a private matter that Pep should have dealt with inside the dressing room and not in a press conference! This is a clear case of passing the buck and a coach making villains out of players and sabotaging them

    When he was at Dortmund I always thought Haaland ran the risk of burning out early. Every time he runs he goes flat out, and big guys that move fast often deal with injuries. Haaland relies too much on his athleticism, if he could just perfect his touch and learn to have an impact on the game other than goals, he might be able to save some of his athleticism for when it's needed. Just master the fundamentals, which will require extra hours on the training pitch

    I don’t think haaland enjoys his football at city. Yes he scores bags of goals but the style city use hinders his abilities which makes it seem like he disappears but really, they don’t play to his strengths… the only time they put a decent cross in for him he hit the bar. Other than that they pass it up and down outside the box for majority of the game until the mids crack a shot or play one twos with each other

    I do not see anything wrong with Pep coming out and saying the players asked to be substituted, a few days ago Rodri said he wanted a rest and nobody had a problem with that. Is it that people want to hear it from the horse's mouth and not from Pep. We should take into consideration that Kevin just come back from an injury, its possible that his body could not take it anymore.Imagine if Rodri had told Pep in private that he needed a break and Pep resting him in that Luton game and city ended up on the losing side, people would be blaming Pep 100%.We have to accept that Football players are not Robots they also need a rest otherwise we will end having players collapsing during the game.

    Pep can be a bit cheeky at times, it is a cultural thing imo - he is not always very direct in his communication. He said because he thought he protected them in that way. In his history he fell off with many of his star players, especially those who knew that they are special. You could see it coming with deBruyne in the recent sub offs. He wasn't happy and I don't think they really like each other anymore. What Pep and Mourinho have in common is that they burn their relationships just to squeeze out some more from the players. He wants them angry so they perform at their limit by turning that anger into positive energy on the pitch, which can be quite exhausting for them.

The media and numpty's acting like they're robots and not human beings. Haaland and KDB have both been struggling with injuries and match fitness. I know having a go at City players is popular, and gets views, but its a high level of stupidity to suggest injured/fatigued players shouldn't ask to be subbed off 😂😂😂.

    Thomas Tuchel did a similar thing in 2016 in the DFB Pokal final between Bayern and Dortmund. The game went to penalties and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who was the star striker for Dortmund that season, did not want to step up. Tuchel okayed it and instead a defender took his place and missed his shot and Dortmund lost the shootout. Afterwards Mkhitaryan was completely ripped apart by the fans and media, and had to leave the club that summer because the fans never wanted to see him in a Dortmund jersey again after this display of cowardice. It was also one the main reasons that convinced people that Tuchel was not the right manager for Dortmund; he was fired a year later.
