Pep's Press Conferences - Watford (A) Post Match (Page 129)

[Plain Speaking]

Borussia Monchengladbach (H) pre match:

Pep is just great to listen to, what a contrast to MP. We are so lucky to have him. Many thanks for the link.

Loves his Stoney Pep

Made me laugh, product placement to try and make chav jumpers cool.

Reminded me of Bobby Robson for no reason picking up a coke can during a interview.

The chavs wear the fake stuff.. :-)

Looks like he's off for a bit of a tear up in the northern quarter with all the other hoolies.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Pep has asthma problem or just a wheezy cough?

Sounds like he has a cold to me.... Temporary glitch

 

[FCBarca]

The line of questioning, still painful - best questions were from the foreign press. Wonder how long these attempts to get a one liner out of him will continue

 

[FCBarca]

I love the fact that he"s not satisfied despite a lot of people being impressed.you can see he"s a perfectionist

Very honest, unlike Mou. He reminded the thick press corps that his goalkeepers will all concede, they will not win everything and even in current form they wouldn't win the Premiership. It's 2 months in and media wants longterm conclusions, he continues to push patience and that this is a marathon not a race

All this without Nasri, Hart, Yaya & Kompany = previously believed to be virtual locks on the teamsheet. I said this earlier but this team will look very different come Spring

 

[Sir peace frog]

Last question must of been from the Spanish sun you could see Pep shaking his head
Can't help reading the text whilst watching quite funny some of it didn't realise chicken breast took over from Brian marbles haha

Come the spring the team will look a lot like it does, just with Kompany, Jesus and Gundogan actually playing from time to time.

 

[Saddleworth2]

Love the way he is so honest in his answers but gives away very little. He was pushed a number of times on how we could improve, but was unspecific. He will not give any of our rivals an ounce of information they could use against us. Give him another month and we will be playing 90 minute football and being more incisive with our final pass. These are the two things for me that are the standout for improving.

 

[prof-taf]

So we were better than United playing great football but pep tells us won't win the league playing like that. Anyone else feel that's his 'fuck you PEG' momrnt

 

[Gordyola]

Extremely impressive.
Is there a concern that he gives too much information?

My thoughts too

No I wouldn't say so, he always comes across as calculated but respectful, he acknowledges how he thinks the opponent will play but doesn't openly state we're going to do ... to deal with it.

Surely he's too smart and experienced for that Regardless of his press conferences there's an 800 page book that details his first year at Bayern and still rival managers have not figured him out Not to mention the pundits and journalists who still haven't got a clue

Not at all

 

[Leyland Blue]

The hack @1:35 calls Pep "PEG". Clown.

 

[SWP's back]

Not at all

?

 

[FCBarca]

If you think the team's play today will look similar to what it will in Spring, you don't understand much about the Pep effect

 

[blue city199]

Ha ha !!

 

[SWP's back]

Ah you mean the play rather than personnel.

Yes I agree.
