I don't remember a football match when all 11 players were just awful. No excuses, we did not play any kids today. I wish we had.
Mentality wise the players were cruising, the effort was nonexistent but I still expected us to beat a chaotic Leipzig side who have just sacked their manager.
Fernandinho's positioning is suspect, Stones and Ake were poor. Not sure what to say about Jack, who tries a lot but ends up doing nothing. With Sterling back in form, he will struggle to get into the first team.
Starting to worry about Foden's fitness. KDB tried, it's just a bit tough for him at the moment.
No need to panic as the likes of Gundo and Mahrez were clearly taking it easy and our best 3 players (Rodri, Silva, Cancelo) were left at home but we go into a busy period and it would be nice if some of the players put some performances together.
Feels weird not having to worry about league cup fixtures.
That was Horrible to watch

The BT coverage was dreadful, I can only assume something had happened to Walker to make him react like that
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Which would be understandable if it was a match that mattered - except it wasn't

That doesn’t really make any sense.

I suspect walker lost it because of the refereeing and his var assistant.

Pep hinted at his disappointment with Walker suggesting he may address it. Some may call it passion or he cares but losing our discipline is what cost us against Crystal palace and we need to maintain our composure when we are not creating chances.
