Pep Guardiola - 2025/26

[meeesh]

I posted that in the post match thread as I heard it at 4pm, I think he was talking bollocks then and I do now as well……..

 

[.db.]

Rumours all over X that city are locked in crucial talks with Pep. Ruchard Keys the knobhead saying don't be surprised to see him gone this week and Maresca coming in. I hate football.

I read someone on X last week say:
Arsenal 49 trophies
City 36 trophies
City haven’t won half of what Arsenal have.

Another this week saying:
Semenyo for £69m and Guehi for £30m
That’s another £150m spent in a January transfer window.

He's given us the most unbelievable memories and experiences. Some of us older folk would have thought belonged in a fairytale.

But I think he has taken us to the pinnacle of his powers.

Squad needs a total overhaul and we don't pay top dollar on transfer fees anymore. We seem to take punts on players that may be good.

The way football finances have gone now we would need upwards of half a billion to be cleaning up again.

The ride is over and I don't think we will ever get back to where we were, without that huge investment.

The club has bought 11 players since last Jan literally a definition of an overhaul. What are people talking about ?

We looked like a Championship side playing an EPL side today, and Pep deserves most of the blame. The game sort of reminded me of the Spurs game earlier in the season. If we had played for an extra hour, we wouldn't have scored. United were more likely to score in the dying minutes of the game. Pep has a lot of credit in the bank, but a lot of that credit gets depleted when we put up that kind of performance at home or in a derby.

Bad day at the office confounded by a load of bad fans on the internet.

 

[BluestBlue]

You're not though.

He deserves a bit of flak for today but fuck a duck we've got some proper whinge bags in our fanbase.

1 win in 5
11 players have been bought since last Jan to bolster the squad and help him
We already went one season trophyless you think anyone with standards with accept going a 2nd
What do you expect

It’s pretty spoiled to demand silverware that frequently. Reaks of red cartel entitlement.

When you spend what weve spent we should be expecting it

Are you telling me fans should be satisfied with not wining any trophies after dominating for the last 10 years ?

I’ll tell you right now, I don’t care what name you call me. I want to win. I want us to do whatever it takes to win, I don’t care who we sign how much money we spend as long as we win trophies. I want to always win a trophy. If you can’t win CL or PL win the cups. If you can’t do that, then see ya later.

Can you imagine the fans that spend their hard earned money to watch that performance today, go and tell them to their face that their spoilt and reak of entitlement to want better.

What a joke

That is all the players the club has bought for Pep since last Jan. There has never been a manager with this sort of backing.

You cannot tell me that it warrants 3 draws and a loss in a title race.

He’s completely to blame for what has gone one. He makes the decisions he chooses which player gets playing time.

He is not as bad as last season but 2 years without a trophy is unacceptable. Last years excuse was the players they were old and lacked hunger. There is no excuse this time.

'2 years without a trophy'.
Explain please.

Don't let the door smack your arse on the way out.

If we don’t win this season, it’s fine. Don’t go having a tantrum in the middle of a rebuild. If we don’t win next season, then go nuts.

We’re in a multi-season rebuild after dominating for over half a decade. Calma

I'm fine with not winning any trophies this season, I'm not that entitled, I'm just sick of some of these lifeless boring performances that we've seen too frequently the last 18 months, I'm sick of us passing it side to side with no intent or purpose and then lose the ball and immediately get countered, I'm sick of playing this stupid high line with no effective press, if we lose at least lose with some fight and effort and have a reasonable style of play,

And the most frustrating thing is we sometimes go more direct and build some momentum only to go back to the slow rubbish when you think we've got rid of that.

Its not about not winning them, its we should be aiming to win them and get damn close to it each season for the resources we have. That today was a disgrace of a performance and a kick in the bollocks to the hardworking fans who went.

You're right about the backing though, the guys blaming Viana for buying players that "don't fit his style" need to get a grip, this ain't FIFA, they buy talented players who are available and it's up to Pep to adapt to the personnel, you can't have an attack consisting of Doku-Foden- Semenyo and Haaland upfront and create zero chances all game, that's an attack that every other manager in the league would kill for, so no excuses for Pep on that, he's gotta get more out of them.

I’m not excusing the performance whatsoever! It’s one of if not the worst of the season. We’re much improved over last season and still in contention for CL, league cup and FA cup
