I saw it again and yeah, Pep's tactics backfired massively. MC played at the weekend and they were pretty poor then, too. I give him a free pass for now but there are clear issues he's gonna need to address. Problem is some games they blow me away while other times they don't click at all. Exactly what you were saying while he was at Bayern. Altrady noticing a few #pepout hashtags on twitter. Not all of them are serious but enough are to make me think his honeymoon period won't last forever, They were booed off at the weekend. If he sticks to his traditional style he's gonna get found out. Southampton were able to neutralise them simply by stopping them from playing out from the back. And I'd say English fans generally really don't like that way of playing, or are at least suspicious of it. And yes, I can categorically say that for all his faults, Hart is quite simply a much better goalkeeper than Bravo.
Like I say, he has a free pass for now, based on past achievements, but the warning signs are definitely there.
