Let him go is not the problem, not buying a proper replacement is.

We did. Roca. But apparently he isn't good enough. No one would have been good enough, tbf. In Thiago we had a top class midfielder capable of keeping the game tight by himself.

Look even I would’ve preferred Thiago to stay and leave for a free but you need to let it go man!

Accept the reality that Thiago wanted to actively leave Bayern and had his mind set on jointing Klopp/Liverpool. Bayern had no choice with only one year left on the Spaniards’ contract. Otherwise you would potentially have a disgruntled player not playing at his best in his final year at the club. (See Alaba at Bayern this season and possibly Messi at Barcelona)[/quote]Neither the board nor most of the fans valued Thiago as he deserved. Most thought and think that Kimmich is the better MF. He wanted to go, true, they should have told him "no, you can leave on a free next season" and we could have gotten another treble out of him. But nooooo Kimmich wanted to play MF and have the number 6...

If there was ever a player that we could afford to lose on a free, it was him. Alaba, OTOH, we could have gotten good cash for...

Of course, the board bend over backwards trying to extend Alaba, but once Thiago said he wanted to leave, they let him go easy and no problem.

Bring in Sane and Tolisso for Musiala and Serge

I'm not happy with how we've been playing this season either. But a hangover after a treble season isn't shocking. Add in the injuries we've had, the grueling schedule, our style of play...and I can understand our subpar performances to a degree.

Getting Kimich back will help. Having 2 weeks off for Christmas should too.

We "saved" energy against Leipzig not wanting to win, we had two meaningless CL games to rest players... This is just a lame excuse, others play too, you know?!

Flick is nowhere to be seen...
Brazzo seems to have taken over...

This shitshow is not on flick... Bin ha saturated wannabes doing some alibi field trip... Embarrassing!
Fed up with this way of "playing"

I don't intend to pin it on Flick. And yet our unlucky injuries in midfield are being made even worse by not playing the midfielder we do have available. It surely doesn't help.

Isn't Mussiala a CAM? I know he can play winger, but i thought his primary position is in the center.

Possibly... we've mostly played him as a winger. Still not the right player to partner Goretzka though. Maybe if it were Kimmich it might have worked.

Agree. I also wonder wtf is wrong with Roca that makes Flick dislike him so much.

Our pressing seems to be half hearted

Finally. Coman just took the game over in the last minute or two.

Torr

Bravo' Coman

Goal!!

Still, don't understand the change Mussiala -> Sané. What's wrong with Roca?!??!?!

I expected a Perisic-like (maybe a bit worse) solid reliable guy we could field if necessary. But so far he hasn't been even that.
