Erling Haaland

If Pep stays, I might have a three year erection!

I'll be knocking crosses in from the South Stand with mine if he extends for 3 years!

The hypothetical with Pep is this; where would he have it better? At this club we have all the ingredients in place for him to flourish, both professionally and personally. He may want to return to Barca, one day, but I'd say it's too soon for that. Madrid are a no-go for the obvious reason. He wouldn't go directly to another English club. I don't think he'd have the appetite to manage PSG. An Italian club could be a long shot; but the reality is we've created a perfect environment for him. I can envisage him staying another five years and then managing the Spanish national team.

On Haaland; we have to be most attractive option for him at this time, at least in England.

This is spot on. He has the ideal environment with us which he himself has created, he has total control. Don't forget all the interference that was in the background at Barca and Bayern. Here he has no interference as the Sheikh and Khaldoon let him get on with it, they have bigger issues to contend with. Pep is enjoying the fact that -

- he is one of the best paid in the world
- he has total backing from the Sheikh
- he works with great friends, Txiki, Ferran, Omar and all the rest which he has built up
- he is in the best league in the world
- what he says goes and he has built an amazing squad that would take years to replicate
- already proved himself in Germany and Spain. No other league comes close..

I can see him extending for a further few years, no question. There is only one downside and that is the weather, but he can chase the sun when he retires.

Clock’s ticking for the Raiola meetings in England. Should be in the next week I reckon, between our Arsenal game on NYD and Dortmund’s first game back on the 8th.

No doubt the general gist of how the meetings go will leak to the press. Going to be interesting…

i hope the deal and all meetings have been done and the deal for haaland been made to come to manchester city
we can not miss out of the biggest opportunity to sign the world best striker

I am sure that if he has made the decision to play in Spain then we are well aware of it.

The man said he would like to be an International manager one day.

Pep Guardiola wants a shot at international football when he leaves Manchester City management position

Pep Guardiola has said his intention is to move into international management when his spell with Manchester City draws to a close.

Can you honestly see a man (Pep) who lives & breathes football, who coaches in his sleep becoming an international manager. Watching shite football from archaic managers and having to wait 3 months to spend 5 minutes coaching players

he probably wants to play in spain one day, that doesn't say anything?
