The personnel are killing us here
Same as forest, the chances are there
this season was lost when they decided to extend Ten Haag's contract instead of sacking him
Manchester Derby's are almost always s***, only exceptions are when United pull off close comeback wins (and that cup final).
Holjund and Garnacho are like if you split 2022-23 Ronaldo into two equally ineffectual players without any of the past greatness.

There’s been so many good ones though (todays wasn’t even that bad it’s just city content with being s***)

You know what I'm going to walk my comment back a bit, there's actually not been that bad a proportion of good games, it's just the bad ones are fairly frequent and really s***
When are we going to have uncomfortable conversations about Ugarte…
Not convinced at all

Yeah but the system is starting to work
If we had some decent attackers we’d have won today and against forest comfortably
If we get who we need the conversations will very quickly turn from “it’s too defensive” to “we attack too much”
When are we going to have uncomfortable conversations about Ugarte…
What uncomfortable conversations? I thought the consensus after three games was that he was mid. Bro’s been outclassed by a washed Casemiro this season.

Uncomfortable convos in that he needs the Ratmus and Garnacho treatment
Holjund and Garnacho need to be gone in the summer, get what you can and move on

Yep and we need to replace with ready made players
I like the idea of buying young players etc but it’s not the time for it
I literally can not believe how f***ing s*** some of these players are. Garnacho is so incredibly bad, I mean he has been for the entire season, but man this guy couldn't dribble past a cone. Hojlund did his usual hide and seek wrestle game. Ugarte is literally a less talented Fred. Dorgu has a lot of energy but the guy has no end product either. Dalot had one decent cross but looked like an absolute mug after Doku came on, like usual. Zirkzee is nice to look at but the man has absolutely zero scoring instinct. Case and Mount are incredibly washed. Thought our defence was decent today, but thats also because City is in the same situation as us.
I want to blame Ruben for his dumb system and still playing some of these lot, but man it be unfair to let him go into the next season without getting in some proper players man. Just hope we have the money to actually get some proven players in.

The system looks 'dumb' because the personnel are so bad they'd make any system look s***. It's a miracle we can create the chances we are, and just look at Casemiro. He's not doing anything drastically different, the midfield is just set up properly.
Dorgu I'm not worried about yet - he's 20 and only had 2 Serie A seasons. It's a huge jump to the PL but he's shown a lot of promise.
