Pep to leave at the end of the season

[Wanchope n me Dickov]

I’ve not been this gutted since Coppell resigned. I’m backing Frankie Clark to hold us together.

As long as Haaland stays I’m not arsed

You’re not bothered if Godri goes?

 

[oakiecokie]

No!! That's a farmers league! He has them playing...

So Vinnie doesn`t have Bayern playing ??

Opens the door for Kalvin Phillips.

Maresca wasn't here even two years. Does he know the club? Viana is here now and hasn't worked with him before.

Ever been to work in the same place for 2 years and then been told you don’t know the place?

Clearly, the club has been in touch for some time, Pep will make the transition as easy as possible, and the players know him from City and/or Chelsea.

The transition will be as easy as possible when trying to replace the best manager in the world!

Exactly! Not all convinced with Maresca. If we’re not careful, we could be going down the rag road of substandard managers leading to a general decline. We have a fantastic team built here and we need to appoint a manager with pedigree. I would feel more optimistic if we had an Emery, Enrique, Zidane or a Xavi to take this team to another level.

I'll blame holt for releasing it, he's an absolute ****, wherever it came from, the mail employ him, and yes I know how the media work, they spend all their time undermining OUR club constantly.

Then you are being very naive. Do you think Holt has been sitting on this "story" for weeks on end and decided it would be in everyone interests to just come out with it now ??
Any reporter would want to get a "story" like this out before another one gets hold of the same story. Once again blame the twat who has leaked this or maybe its not for once the medias fault but some gobby **** at the club.

He's saying "I have one more year". Certainly nothing in his embargoed press conference today to indicate he's leaving. Talked about the benefits of having another season to work with the new players signed since January 2025.

Pep saying he has ‘one more year’ is technically correct, but, unfortunately, it doesn’t mean he is staying for one more year. It’s an answer given to deflect the question.

And he`s a very naught boy and not the Messiah we all thought he was. ;)

Room for improvement. This is not acceptable for the manager of the coolest football club on planet Earth

That's fine. Seen some of him in a club tracksuit. Nup. Not at my club.

Hopefully Pep can give him some lessons before he dips.

But the BBC asked him at the weekend if he’ll be at City next year and he replied “Yes”

You can’t get any clearer than that

The media are absolutely loving this. The fact that it was the great unwashed Holt breaking the story rankles very much.


They all cant wait for him to go so their collective red fanboy clubs can get back to winning the league with Pesky Pep and 115 Cheating Lick'l old City out of the way.

Apart from Martin Samuel they should take a collective long walk off a short pier.....

Don’t waste your time or emotions on them mate. Useless bunch of tossers. Once you ignore and enjoy the club without the bullshit it’s great. Took me a while to get there.

The whole cabal is a waste of space.

 

[Cigs&Alc]

I'm hearing from various sources that Maresca will be a stopgap until Enrique arrives. Normally, I can back up a comment because I know the source at the club (was at the club many years ago) is reliable.

Or Vinny. Word is that Marseca's contract will end when Vinny's does.

 

[Blumooniac]

Anyone would think think the media were out to rattle us the night before an important match. You know, when we're still on for an, albeit it unlikely, treble. Nonsense, I say. Especially not that nice Oliver Holt. Lol.

Go to bed oakie, you can get up early to go and buy your daily mail in the morning, carry on sucking up to them, I've no time for tabloid shite, and they are up there with the worst, as I keep telling my mother.

Living in Leicester, Enzo's one season in charge of them completely polarised opinion. It defied belief. You'd get one guy at work lauding him as the new messiah, but the guy next to him would want him gone.

He took them from relegation to champions in one season. Changed them from the "long ball to Vardy" team to a possession based footballing team, winning the league at a canter. This, despite losing Tielemans, Maddison and Barnes in the summer transfer window.

I'm not absolutely convinced, but I do like his attitude. He takes no shit from the press. Takes no shit from fans, even threatening to resign from Leicester mid-season, if they didn't appreciate his football philosophy. He seems to have the same balls as Pep.

Lets no forget, Chelsea have a history of letting people go who go on to great things, KDB being the most obvious. Maybe, Enzo will be the next one.

"I have a dream ..."

Maybe he meant in the stands, using his free life season ticket?

 

[Brightwell’s left peg]

Whenever and whoever the new manager is, I hope he knows not to park in Pep’s parking spot. If I’ve learnt anything about managers taking over previously successful managers, it’s don’t park in their spot!!

And you`ve lost the plot and the argument you saddo. Why are the Mail to blame and not the gobby twat at the club ? By the way I wouldn`t wipe my arse or even yours on the Mail.
