Think the contract extension was agreed when he signed

Cheers guys. My view is different to yours so I'm wrong, I get it. You just missed the rag tag for the final nail.

I don't post a lot on team/management topics because they are heated but I feel so disappointed and underwhelmed by what has happened this season so far. I've learnt my lesson.

Don't watch, listen to or read any of those.

The core of our squad were from Mancini's era, that they are aging can't be (and isn't) disputable.



Ad homenim to further degrade your nonsensical rantings. How entirely unsurprising.



You are negative. You have been negative in every single City thread you've posted in, even following victories. That anyone could be negative following our come-from-behind victory against Arsenal or the first time we beat Barcelona, beggars belief. You did. That makes me feel you're negative. Or a rag. Both?



Nobody disagrees with this.

The difference between you and anyone else is that most accept that he has to be given time to deliver, certainly longer than the half a season you've waited to vomit your negative bile all over this forum.

Seems the club agrees. Sorry.

Ad homenim? You're the one who's personalising this.

At no point have I ever suggested that we sack him now; if he's not capable of doing the job the end of the season is the correct time to reassess.

I'm not negative. You'll obviously need to have the last word here, so can I suggest you post 'You are negative' for your next contribution.

I think I've only ever posted once in a post match thread. Getting home from a match and posting 'Yesss!', 'Get in!' or some such crap doesn't seem like a good use of my time.

The whole world is discussing Pep, because he's making such a mess of things at the moment.

I wish him well, but he doesn't seem to be happy at the moment and he certainly isn't doing a good job.

Blind positivity, away from the heat of a game, in the face of all the evidence, is a sign of stupidity.

Feel free to have the last word, I won't be posting again on this subject on this thread.

Sorry, I must have missed that. All I've seen is what he did in Spain and Germany plus a couple of flashes here and there with us.

I haven't seen anything factual about how we are developing in a positive way, just that its not his team, it will come good and give him time. I accept those viewpoints but they're not exactly factual.

Try moving away from the word "factual". Forecasting is not factual but probable.
I guess beating Barcelona and Arsenal, the first 6 league games and the way we play when at full strengh are not factual enough for you.

So in his initial contract it said he'd sign an extension in January?..What's the fucking point in that..Why not sign a 4/5 year deal?

Lots of contracts have options for either party to trigger an extension. Nothing unusual if that is what's happened. Maybe he has maybe he hasn't and it's a new contract. Either way it's good news.

I know that is tongue in cheek but it can't be any part of the plan, surely.

I'm sure it isn't the plan, but it shows that missing out is hardly the end of the world.

In fact I think it's fair to say that with the current top six being so equal these days, then you can bet that whoever finishes outside the top 5 (someone has to), they will certainly do much better the next season.

I understand the decision to replace Hart but I've also started to doubt whether or not Bravo will come good. For all his faults though, I think using the shots/goals ratio against him is a little bit harsh. A lot of the goals we're conceding seem to come as a result of us being completely carved open by the opposition after some extremely sloppy play in our own half. These aren't speculative shots on goal he's having to face, they're golden opportunities handed to our opponents due to the failings of our outfield players. He hasn't particularly impressed me and he doesn't seem commanding enough in the box, but the goals we're letting in aren't all his fault either.

I am far from a Joe Hart fanboy so I don't want anyone thinking my issues with Bravo are anything remotely blinkered because I am upset over Hart. What I would say though is that Hart won us many points over the years, City tweeted today Dzekos goal at Wigan where we won 1-0. I remember that game as Hart made a great save towards the end which won us the match. It's the only thing he had to do all game and he got man of the match. Had the shot of gone in no one could of blamed Hart or point the finger, it was a great save. Now I'm not saying Bravo should save every shot or do a double back flip and tip one over the bar. I am talking about making standard saves, sometimes great saves that really digs you out the shit when needed. We don't have that in Bravo and as I said in Harts case he gained us points, Bravo hasn't on one occasion done that.

Bravo is completely incompetent as a "goalkeeper" I have heard that the defence don't help him out which is completely true but does that mean every shot should go in? Come on pep, you're hear to learn apparently, learn and drop this idiot.

P.S I clicked on the wrong thread and thought this was about Bravo haha - in terms of this thread fantastic news he is staying as long as its a fully motivated Pep who is willing to learn. He look dejected to fuck yesterday.
 
If true, then its a great sign. Shows he means business and is up for the fight. This summer is going to be huge. No evolution this time, its revolution.
