We're continuing our zombie walk trough this season. Alaves had enough chances to score three goals in first half. We were clinical and controlled the possession we'll at times.

Still don't get the point of just fucking around half a season with Xavi on the bench. What's the point. Team is shit anyway.

Dude, let him cook - a new coach coming in now won't help us shit, might even fuck us up even more.

What the fuck does he cook? What's the point of keeping him on the bench? League is so poor that we ain't losing that CL spot anyway.

Then what's the point of firing him? Now imagine Rafa Marquez coming in now, getting the new manager bounce with a string of good results and gets the full-time job based on 3 months only to turn into ass?

Hold your horses. Di Matteo didn't get the job after winning a CL.

Why would Marquez get the job for finishing third for example?

I'd fire him because he should have been fired in the first place. Players don't trust him anyway. Just watch how we fold in the coming matches an all hell breaks loose with Xavi still in office.

Roman Abramovich didn't have a very close personal relationship with Di Matteo and was not afraid of firing multiple managers within a season if he thought he had to.

Laporta is really close to Marquez, and he would be a cheap option for a club with La Liga FFP issues. Do you trust him not to make a hasty, bad decision?

Club should appeal the second yellow if possible, way too harsh for a sending off. Pretty ok game otherwise, Alaves were horrible at finishing. Not sure what was the point in playing Christensen at DM unless for extra height at set pieces. Also why play all three of Frenkie, Gundo and Pedri who are all creative. Fermin is quicker than Pedri, more direct and has a good shot in him. Would like to see him more often.

Pedri>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Fermin though. They are handled well, and so is Roque at the moment.

Pedri is neat and tidy and good at circulating the ball but Fermin just seems more aggressive in the final third, making runs into the box and looks to shoot from outside. Think he will compliment Gundo and Fenkie well. He just seems to have a bit of edge to his game in the attacking third.
