Pep Guardiola - 2020/21 Performances

[EdersonsSmiley]

I meant he gifted them the game,sweetheart

No more like you were chatting shit as per.

Yes sometimes he played both of them but never without either of them, I just don't get it with Pep sometimes, why did he think it was a great to idea to play your top scorer in a position he hasn't played in ages ? what the fuck is the thinking process here ? it killed us both defensively and offensively because Gundo is not a natural DM and he couldn't bomb forward like he has done brilliantly all season, it's just mind-blowing.

It was all to get Sterling in the team which his performances haven't deserved

It’s not about “better”, football isn’t a simple equation. It’s about change. Do you think he’ll take us further than that? We have no balls

beaten by a better team on the night IN A FINAL, it happens..?

 

[ninjamonkey]

We need to see him speak and take ownership of that, admit he got it badly wrong and the healing is so much easier and quicker.

If he comes out with his usual crap about us playing well but Chelsea was so so good it just makes it worse.

As expected sadly. Bullshit words.

If he doesn't take the blame, how is he ever going to stop making the same errors?

The subs were all over the place. He should have started the team against psg .

When Aguero came on it was over for me. Unless a worldie was coming we weren’t going to score. They got the goal then did what they do well.

Tonights defeat for me was 95% on the players - we had more than enough even without a designated holding midfielder and the fact is the chance Sterling missed was huge. We weren't blown away like against Lyon - Tonight we were beaten because they set up to stop us and that's it. I guess it's disappointing that during the game we had one or two players who could not see where they could make their own minor changes. You could also say the ref seemed to be very connected to their players - most telling was stopping the game when Jorginho and their captain screamed out during perfectly good challenges - costing us momentum but that would be picky. The reality is we didn't do enough to win the game and we have to take it on the chin.

I for one am fully behind Pep and his methods and maybe this will prompt some changes especially to our wide attackers. We made Chilwell and James look like Cafu and Maldini...Only good thing is maybe it will mean a longer stay for Pep which is a beautiful thing. Heads up blues we will win it next year.

The thing that really bothers me , apart from Pep’s brainfart, is that we just didn’t turn up. Too many players under preformed. Our best player KDB chose to have his worst game in a City shirt, in the final. Reminded so much of the Real Madrid semi a few years ago. Pep you are a great manager but you need to keep it simple.

 

[EdersonsSmiley]

At any other top club in Europe the axe would fall after how he fucked us over tonight.
This bollox of the best coach in the world,
In Pep we trust is only arse licking.
Serious questions to be answered now.

I always thought you were a cretin but this is on another level.

How can some of you call yourself City fans. This is such rag behaviour.

 

[Trojan1962]

Not starting Fernandinho who is the captain and leader of the team tonight was a shocking decision particularly when Kante who is world class was playing. Very very strange

 

[Big-P]

Love pep with all my heart. But the fact that scabby creepy nonce has done a number on us 3 times with a shit team is unforgivable. He’s his own worst enemy at times.

 

[oldius]

He dropped Fernandinho and brought in Sterling, moved Foden and Gundo. Hardly one player?

One player played who may not normally play.

Thanks for the memories Pep,
But just like Bobby and Pellers time to say goodbye.

But he benched him in the quarter and semi, why did he suddenly think it was a great idea to play him in the final while playing your top scorer out of postion ? I just want Pep to come out and explain to us his thinking because as feared it led to a terrible performance.

It wasn't on the players.

Who are you appointing from this forum??

 

[Badensbluemoon]

Mr tinker strikes again, we are lucky he left the tinkering for the final, great as they come but his worst enemy at times

He was telling it was for playing best between the lines... Ok but our defensive process was at cost to say the least..

Blimey were all disappointed lad but we’ve won the league, that is the most important thing. Our time will come

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Wouldnt swap Pep for any manager in the world , but he does have the occasional brain fart and tonight was one of them , too clever by half sometimes , Tuchel worked Pep out and taught him a lesson tonight , but Pep will take heed and learn from his mistakes ,August will soon be here and the defence of our title , bring it on

 

[SanPellegrini]

Virtue signalling from some blues on here...

The “positivity” is fine if not a little nauseating. But labelling any disappointed fans as “pathetic” and attacking anyone who questions the manager is, itself, pathetic.

Apparently, anyone who questions pep’s choices after not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, but even more egotistical/arrogant/foolish tactical decisions in important matches is having a “knee jerk” reaction. If I’m honest, I’ve never really liked the guy on a personal note like that stupid cigar video last week, but I’ve always appreciated he’s an amazing manager. Is that enough to question his choices, and whether we need a change, or are we not allowed to do that?

Right, you’re more of a blue than me because you back Pep after today’s shit show - is that what you want to hear? Fuck this pressure to be positive all the time. I got tickets, travelled to Porto, to support a team that didn’t show up. The same happened in Lyon, the same happened in the derbies this year, the FA cup this year. Yes I get what it means to support this club and I understand the club’s roots, but need a change
