When asked about Maguire, Pep didn't deny we wanted him, he said we couldn't afford him. Any source related to City would tell you we were interested, but not at 80m. Find one that said at the time we had no interest in Maguire. Btw, he was good for England just 3-4 months ago. He isn't Dias, but he isn't/wasn't bad either.

Being good at centre half when the rest of the team is set up to defend is not that hard. And Boulders made him look half decent. He's shite

Mancini's record against United in derbies was P12, W5, D1, L6. Pep's is P14, W6, D2, L6.

Basically the same. Although in Mancini's time United were either better than us or level with us, whereas under Pep United have been either slightly worse or far worse than us and therefore the excuses don't really wash the same way.

Considering how Pep is and the way we play under him, his record in derby games is pretty wank

Agree but, context in half of them has been rather games of insignificance that we've lost. I'd say the only one that left a sour taste was when could of wrapped the title at home vs them and blew the lead. Apart from that I couldn't even tell you how the games went.

Is there a trophy of beating United in h2h games or ?
Pretty sure Pep loses no nights thinking about beating Utd in the derby, he is more focused on actually winning trophies.

All true. I know his father in law. He stopped doing his previous job (something legal, I think) to do this full time. His father in law, a wonderful fella, is totally bemused by it all.

Tell him his son in law's net worth is estimated to be around $1.5 million.

There's money in talking bollocks.
 
i used to say why sack the manager if there is nobody available that is better than what you got ?
but in united case i think its why would better managers want to go to united

you can stick the history crap up your arse. nobody cares about what you did years ago its the here and now and the future ? if it was just about history then teams like preston north end/blackpool/bury would be top of the premier league

united are in a right old mess both on and off the field and this summer they spent over £250million on new players and wages and are going backwards
