Criticism of Pep

[YaYa's Left Peg]

A poster on here before.

Sad isn't it.

I can’t believe any genuine City fan would write that never mind believe it!

I happen to believe Klopper’s achievements in England will have surpassed Pep’s at the end of the season...unless we win the CL.

People have lost their fucking minds this week on here.

Agree with you except it's not a nightmare and everything's not tainted and we're not waiting for a divorce. Actually i'm not sure i do agree with you !

Just a storm in a blue moon teacup

Slippery slope mate..

This is my first post. Disclaimer: I’m not a Manchester City fan, but I am a fan of the football you’ve played over the last three years.

If you want an outsiders perspective, I think elements of your fanbase are completely out to lunch. It’s a strange alchemy of cynicism, rage and ignorance combined with a victimization complex.

You’ve just witnessed the two highest scoring seasons in premier leagues history, and yet you show your coach and players so little respect it beggars belief.

I remember when Barcelona were knocked out of the Champions League by Chelsea in 2012. I’m sure their fans were disappointed, but at the end of ninety minutes they stood and applauded in unison in recognition of their teams achievements over the the prior four years.

Yes, that Barcelona team won more, but they also had a much stronger first eleven than this City team. Given the individual quality of your players-which is very high, but not significantly better than your current rivals-this team has performed tremendously.

I hope you guys win the Champions League this year, your team deserves it. I also hope the more ignorant elements of your fanbase learn to appreciate what they’ve got before it’s too late.

For the record, there are definitely areas where you could improve the individual quality of your team, but all of your players deserve the upmost respect for what they’ve accomplished over the last two seasons.

Well said for the best part, and full credit for sticking your neck out to speak as openly as that.

PS, sounds like you are ready to admit to yourself you might now be a city fan bud.

Don't worry too much. Thankfully, Bluemoan isn't a reflection of our match-going support.

Just for reference Barcelona cup attendance last night 43k
In a stadium that holds 99k
Cue empty seat jibes and pep criticism!

While the more extreme disciples don’t appear to have minds of their own.

While some don’t appear to have minds of their own.

Clearly we do or we would just agree.

Mine is you have lost yours and the post I've quoted is so ridiculous, for me it backs my argument up.

For those who say Pep isn't perfect and makes mistakes? No shit, he is human, not a robot.

Maybe its time for you all to tell us who is perfect and who can replace him, guaranteeing as a minimum the same success he has brought and of course guaranteeing the holy grail of the CL?

I wont hold my breath waiting on an answer.

Great post.

That Barca team was beaten by a relatively unimpressive Chelsea team over two legs and Chelsea played most of the 2nd leg with 10 players. Messi missed a pen. That's football, shit happens. It doesn't happen to Liverpool this season, but it will happen to them at some point too.
