Pep's contract situation | 2 year extension confirmed! (pg1817)

[Bluewonder]

Agreed

Disagree.

A year of Pep is an 80% chance of another league title.

You eke out as much as you can.

 

[Damocles]

The rumour is a one year extension. This is no good, we would just be in the same position in 12 months. They should offer two years or nothing. We have to cut the umbilical cord at some point. If he goes try for Amorim in the summer.

Pep can stay for as long as he likes on whatever length of contract that he likes imo. If he wants to take it year by year then that's perfectly fine.

We should let Pep do what he wants within reason. He deserves it.

 

[Buckshaw Blue]

Agree with the previous comments. If Pep wants a rolling 12 month contract then I’d be more than happy with that.

There are two parties in this and a one year extension is decidedly not in the interests of the club. We pay him £17m. p.a., that’s quite enough to ask him not to try for one year.

I love Pep
But I don’t like this uncertainty.

Even if we aren’t as successful under the new manager, the transition is happening soon.

If we didn't have the club World Cup I'd agree but if it's one year or none I'd rather have one because of the upheaval short break the team manager will have!

I think he’d be off this year if we didn’t have the CWC

It is reported that Klopp is appointed global head of Red Bull. This is my guess for Pep’s next move. Makes sense.

tbf no one would’ve noticed the difference between bull’s and flopp’s head .

 

[Richie Rich]

The CWC is a pointless tournament.

Bollocks. Another year of Pep would be fantastic. And there’s always the chance he decides to renew again in a years time

That "uncertainty" you mentioned: it means you don't like 1 year of 80% winning league + 1 year unknown; you prefer 2 years of unknown instead? (Assume that "unknown" == we choose a good manager that has 60% winning league, and I'm being very optimistic here)

Yes three are two parties in this discussion & yes Pep earns £17M but he has won us everything. No other manager could have done that. As I said let him choose on his terms.

 

[Roy paul brother]

How on earth would you know that hahah

The break clause is he could walk away whenever he wanted contract or not, Mansour would never stop him he as done to much for us.

I'm not buying that, we would never be so unprofessional and let him walk away at any time, IMO he would have to give notice of intention to do so, so we could prepare for it.

I agree but the only issue is we are going to need a fairly major rebuild over the next season or two, it would be perfect that Pep is in charge of that and when he deos leave, he leaves with a wonderful young hungry team.

Only 5 premier league trophies there. Need an update

It’s business, baby.

Meanwhile, Pep has the club by the short and curlies.
All good things must come to an end and this uncertainty is poor business practice.

Or, he does a Fergie!
