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

Rumour mill in overdrive I see. Surely it’s better for everyone if Pep makes up his mind sooner rather than later. This could be a distraction we don’t need as the season goes on. Like everyone else I love the bones of the man for everything he’s done for us but this needs putting to bed.

It’s not a problem at all. At the moment we’ve got Pep till at least the end of the season. The club will know how he’s feeling & will have firm plans in place for his replacement. Pep will help in every way, to ensure a smooth & convenient handover

If Pep wants Alonso to follow him then thats what will happen imo, just hope we sort Wirtz then as well!

It’s almost like the new sporting director has no say whatsoever.
Xabi Alonso has RM written all over him. Reports in Germany saying he’s leaving Leverkusen at the end of this season. Timeline doesn’t really add up.
Rúben Amorim on the other hand.

Of course Viana will have a say mate and even more obvious is the link between Viana and Amiron but Peps voice will be BIG in the conversation on his replacement imo.

Jim White speculates that Slot’s Liverpool is better than Klopp’s Liverpool. He then discussed it on air with people that have a low IQ who paid for the privilege. Sources close to Jim White claim he’s waiting for Liverpool’s next defeat to another Nottingham Forest type team before flip flopping and calling for Slot to be sacked. Rumour has it he hopes to discuss the same thing with the same idiots in different circumstances. More to follow.

Pep signs 1 year deal until 2026 - pep then takes over from tuchel when his contract with England expires in 2026 - city appoint amorim who’s contract also expires in 2026….Thats my guess

Pep isn't going to manage England lol, after City he will take a well deserved break, one that he may not actually come back from.

I think Pep's thoughts and advice ought to be taken onboard but i think it would be a mistake to give him too much sway in the matter if his choice was was different to Viana's. Pep has thrived partly because he's Pep but also because the club built an entire eco system and back room staff within which he would thrive. The new manager will be working alongside the new sporting director and i think the new director should be given space to follow his own path.

I'd have thought Viana will have been brought in because his outlook and way of working is aligned with how City works anyway, so you'd hope there was a fair amount of agreement/continuity between the existing and incoming regime.

Viana and Amorim describe their relationship in exactly the same way that Pep and Txiki describe theirs. That bodes well and hints at Amorim to replace Pep.
