The mental midgets shouldn't even be oin the squad. And guys like Dusan and Koop showed they don't give a crap and shown the door.

Usually losses like this can be good, because they show you exactly where we are lacking and which areas require work…
The problem is I have zero faith in this club anymore to make the right decisions and focus on the actual on field product.
I doubt we will do anything about it this defence in a significant matter. Better sign Jadon Sancho and other money hungry grubs like this, instead of fixing the laughable mess that is our current central defence.

1. To beat City you need very fast players on the break, for example, Muani for Vlahovic, Weah for Kostic, Mbangula for Nico. Instead of looking for a quick buck by selling the players that actually try to play and were useful, sell the expensive flops now. Luiz and Koopmeiners are trash and Vlahovic can move on. That will be plenty to rebuild with.
2. Why play 3 at the back when they always have fast wingers? Adding extra defensive mids doesn't solve the wing problem and Kelly was completely lost with nobody covering him either. Why not change formation? 3-4-3 requires possession and a attack mindset so that the back 3 stay up a lot, a defensive 3-4-3 gives you zero outlet to release City's pressure so conceding 5 was expected.
3. Attack is the best form of defence in modern football, those days of parking the bus are long gone. Pep has got his new players and a bunch of bench warmers playing slick football, while we only focus on "pressing" in training. Why not cultivate a new style and thinking? Mbangula would've been way more useful than Nico or Vlahovic. Is Tudor another dictator coach?

I hate the fact that it has become more and more common for Juve to conceed 5,4 goals than it was in the past.
And seeing the player and the club act like that is ok is really pissing me off.
I was expecting a bad game but city scored 5 and could have scored even 5 more easily. And they did it without a sweat. Last year we lost 4-0 to Atalanta, 2 years ago 5-1 to napoli its really frustrating.
I don't want to know what to expect if we play with PSG, Liverpool, Bayern Real Madrid or Barcelona in the near future.

That was fucking horrendous. So embarrassing and shameful.
I understand the need for squad rotation, but I would have done that against Why Dad - not Manchester City.
Why is Rugani not getting minutes? Our central defence is starving for some minutes from an experienced player.
Why is Douglas Luiz not getting minutes in a game like this?
I am going to fucking piledrive someone if I see us start another game with a 2 man midfield. Even worse when it is Locatelli & McKennie. It is so out of touch with the way modern football is played. You need midfielders who can resist the press and dictate the tempo of the game. Look at the impact Rodri had.
We are heading into the summer mercato with no sporting director. What is Comolli doing?
For anyone saying this tournament doesn't matter and this was an exhibition game, enjoy your fucking copium. Winning this game would have given us a straight path to the final. Seriously, go and look at the tournament bracket. Now we'll we facing Real Madrid in the next game. Progressing each phase is worth around €20m. We're counting our fucking pennies for Chico Conceicao because €30 million is too much money ... could we not use the extra cash? This is pretty fucking far from a friendly.
