Txiki Begiristain

In the summer of 2016 and again 2017 there were people on here giving him stick

They were - IMO - demonstrating the new attitude of entitlement that we are starting to see - the sort of thing that we used to associate with scum fans

Surely after this record breaking season full of exciting football delivered by the manager and players brought in by Txiki - there will be none of that bollocks this summer
Plus look at the prices we are paying. We sign players miles cheaper than Utd pay. We are starting to bring in decent amounts and only sell when it suits us. We also seem to lock down who we want in November and have them pretty much boxed off come the summer unless a greedy agent tries it on a la Sanchez.( I hope he feels it was worth it to win nothing!)
 
2015: De Bruyne, Sterling, Otamendi
2016: Jesus, Sané, Gundogan, Stones
2017: Silva, Ederson, Mendy, Walker
2018: Jorginho, Mahrez?

We have built a formidable squad in the last few transfer windows.

Completely agree. Not knocking anyone here but it does feel that since Pep arrived the manager takes more ownership of signings and thats reflected in two phenomenal transfer windows.
 
Belief shines through the club: fans to players and manager; players to fans and manager; manager to board and board to manager. Pep seems to be the common bond.

Yes true also. You only have to look at the 2015 signings and see the improvement.
 
I don’t know why this bloke gets so much stick. I think he’s doing a fantastic job. We are fortunate to have him.


Because fans are weird creatures who always know better than the professionals - and we have our fair share as this forum proves.

The guy is doing a great job imo .
 
Very interesting to hear how he convinced Rodri to come here. Apparently he sat him down and said "This time next year Rodri, we're gonna be champions of Europe."
