Just because we have other problems, it doesn't mean Kepa isn't a problem. Months ago, I was still willing to be patient with Kepa but as the season went on, the situation had reached breaking point because he has let in goals that he should have saved and he has rarely even made any sort of saves. Every shot from opposing teams was like turning into a goal every time, might as well not have any keeper in goal at all. Go through the games last season and am sure he cost us like 10 points, a few additional wins because of his paper-esque wrists, pathetic reflexes, technical flaws. The stats do not lie when they state he has the worst save % in the league and heck on top of not saving shots, he appeared to have even forgotten how to do the basics, which culminated to all the defenders screaming at him for not coming for the cross late on at Anfield. It feels so alien that when you see other teams' keeper makes save after save after save, big or small and then realize that your team's keeper does not do that. Having the likes of Werner, Ziyech, Havertz etc would likely help with the chance conversion this coming season but at the same time, that would be pointless if the keeper, who is supposed to be our last line of defence, makes a blunder in goal. It would be like taking a step forward and then two steps back.

Bakayoko and Drinkwater say hello.

Problem with Ancelotti was that his training methods didn't have any intensity. It was all too relaxed.

With every signing we make, the pressure on Lampard increases like 10x more than before to get things right this coming season. No more struggling to finish in the Top 4, have to finish comfortably in there and close the gap on the top two as well as maybe win at least one of the cups.

GO SIGN THIAGO ALCANTARA!

Tuchel confirmed Silva is leaving in his post-match interview...

This.

Think Conte has the bond with his players but he just ends up destroying that through his unsavory, off-putting antics.

Of course managers need to maintain that line between being their manager and "friends" so to speak but having that bond is important. Otherwise, you risk becoming a Mourinho or a Sarri.

It seems like Liverpool are still debating over the move because of the fee. If they can't afford it, we should go for it, just like we did with Werner!

Also...

Speaking of Thiago Alcantara, can we go hijack the Liverpool deal for him and get rid of Jorginho?

For a second there, I thought it's Thiago Alcantara and got excited, only to suddenly remember it's Thiago Silva...

Should be applied to every manager really, never mind the Germans. Man management, having that bond with the players are just as important as the other aspects.

True, but the turnaround is still kinda crazy. Bayern looked a mess under Kovac and they even got thrashed 5-1 by Eintracht Frankfurt fgs! Look 100x better in all aspects under Flick. And came across this.

HOT WEEK! HOT WEEK COMING UP!

How bad was Niko Kovac by the way? Hansi Flick took over only in November and has led them to the treble in less than a year.

PSG definitely went AWOL in the second half.

Icardi left on the bench. Tuchel should be sacked.

Has anyone checked on our German fellas on here?

By the way, can we go hijack the deal for Thiago? Replace Jorginho with him!
