I genuinely can't believe what I'm seeing. It's almost 80mins and we're still playing a 17 yr old on the right wing over an actual right winger, during a match against Real Madrid. A League match. I just can't believe my eyes right now. We are completely content with mediocrity now.

I don’t get why he waited to make subs?
No LB, one midfielder, and 6 attackers. The dumbest tactical set up when you're fighting against a balanced squad with two wingers, 3 midfielders, and 4 defenders. You're just asking for penetration, and completely losing control of the midfield. Lmao
If this guy isn't sacked tomorrow, then we've really sunk to an all time low. This guy is completely clueless when it comes to club football at an elite level. Dire set up, dire in game management.
Jesus fuck if someone told me sacking Valverde would have led to this, I would have kept him. This is just awful.

Garbage manager
How is this exactly on Koeman? Squad was shambles and he got one signing - Dest (which he nailed btw ).
Also wanted a mobile midfielder and a forward - both profiles we miss badly.
On this particular occasion we weren't playing bad. We were killed by Lenglet basically in the moment we were dominating.

For starters : putting our most inform player on LW for no reason and playing a 17 year old out of position on RW for no reason whatsoever. You could argue that he could have gone with a Pique-Araujo backline instead of Lenglet who is a really average CB.
I give you that. Maybe because we were a better side up until that penalty that shocked us. Maybe he wanted to give extra time to same players to bounce back.
Having said that he should have taken off Busquets and put in Braithwaite sooner.

We weren't the better side.
He has no reason not to bring on Dembele earlier and sub off Coutinho literally 0 reason everyone could see we needed those changes

He is more like Valverde. Not playing with real wingers, playing Pedri on RW and Coutinho on LW. Froze the whole game and just made subs the last 9 minutes. Starting Busquets in every fucking game when you have better players like Puig who rarely get a chance. Players walking or stop running. Playing subs in the wrong positions.
We should have hired Poch, not EV 2.0

Don't think Dembele has a future here.
Think we were dominating the second half up until that Lenglet show.
