We do need a plan B, too, though. We've had plenty of games where you know we wouldn't score if we kept playing all night.

Let’s hope it’s the correct decision if true
I'd happily never win the Champions League if it meant winning consistent league titles and sweeping up domestically. I'd still want the Champions League to be won of course, but if I had to make a choice, I'd choose long term domestic success every time. And whilst Guardiola may or may not win us the CL, he's got one of the best track records EVER domestically.

Pirlo signed to Juventus till 2022 I believe? Just in time for Pep to there then ? Hmm thoughts?
If the news of a two year extension is true, he clearly feels confidence in us, good news for everyone.

If he signs up for a further two years it will be a huge boost for next season and make recruitment so much easier.

hope not, at this point its unlikely he'll coach another club after city but he can be fired in the meantime. no coach is immune to that, from what the man himself said he likes it at city, working with his old pal txiki, he likes the english game atmosphere and not being under intense outside pressure like at bayern and barcelona.
edit: Also, realistically, while you might agree with it or not, in most big clubs he'd be under fire after losing that lyon game and probably heading out. That was a big mess he made, i dont recall him having such a bad game in his career
I think he got absolutely mullered one champions league game when he was at Bayern?
His worst defeat at Bayern was in 2013/4. Having lost the first leg of the semi-final 1-0 away at Real, they suffered a 4-0 reverse at home in the second leg.

4 years to win his first trophy and 7 to win their first league title under him despite spending an absolute fortune in relative terms(far more than anybody else in the league) with more playing staff turnover than I could count.
And idiots on here think we should move Pep on...

If Pep stayed 26 years and had equivalent funding that Fergie had he would at least match his success.
I hope he was and sad cafe, it will fire the bald fu**er up even more!

If he has signed I will be absolutely delighted.
We are all disappointed after this season but we won't win everything, all of the time. Football does not work like that. No manager in the history of the game has been perfect. Pep is as close to it as you can currently get.
Pep is the best manager in the world and I don't mean for winning trophies (although that obviously helps). The standard of football is something I never thought I would see in England, never mind at my club. Every man and his dog wants to compare Klopp and Pep and people will go back on forth on this every season depending on which side wins which trophies. What Klopp will never have, is the legacy in football that Pep will. Peps Barca (best I have ever seen) changed the face of football and other managers have been trying to imitate Peps style ever since. He has changed the way football is played in this country, after the media were adamant he would have to be the one to change. Pep is a revolutionary. Klopp will never have this impact on the game. There is no queue of managers across the continent trying to imitate Klopps style, he won't change the face of English football. He is a great manager and will win plenty of trophies but football is littered with managers who have achieved the same.
Replacing the best manager in the world is an impossible task, why would we want to do it earlier than we have to? I am stunned there are people on this forum who would prefer to go in a different direction.

Extending Peps contract to allow him to rebuild is the answer not sacking him after one relatively poor season on the back of two outstanding ones.
Great news.
I’m sure like me, many were infuriated with Pep’s line up and tactics against Lyon but he’s still one of the best managers in the history of the game.
Minor rebuild required, lets take back the PREMIER LEAGUE because that’s what we watch week in, week out.
We’ve already done great business this transfer window. Let’s bring in a commanding CB, hopefully Koulibaly, add some energy to our midfield, possibly get a LB in, the attack will sort it’s self out and storm the league.
