never imagined he will be around 10 years. I wish he would have gone crazy at rebuild just when we won the treble and the summer after that rather than some sentimental, trusting older players being too loyal etc.
while imo he has underperformed in CL, we really should have won that Chelsea final too, or get one more final in a decade, but PL titles, domestic cups, 4inarow, style of play especially between 2018-2024 many records broken, some incredible games and close title races, 100 points, most goals scored in PL, treble, legendary players due to him etc etc these all leave memories we will never forget. never finished under rags either, really hope that is not changed by next managers. let that be a bare fucking minimum keep them at their place.
says it all that so many recent players have absolute good memories of their time here, about the club, Pep. there is a big family feel around, everyone taken care of.
I am sure media will do everything to undermine next manager, to compare him to Pep, while they never gave enough credit to him while he was here.
wondering whats next for Pep. I assume takes all next season off focus on family, travel, relax. but someone who is burning so much energy everday and so focused and passionate even in training he may be itching to be back even by March. would be brutal to face him in a CL game later on. :)
way too early for him to go to UAE, Saudi MLS yet. also international level is a waste for him at this age. few training every couple months, not the best way for him. he needs a break but I think we will see him still at CL level club. he is only 55.
