Guardiola to Axe Kompany (Various Sources)

I completely agree with you, we woman and moan about ffp but it's our own doing, looking at flop player salaries alone it's like 40 - 50 million a year in wages that are not benefitting the first team, what other team (beside the rags) does that? I'm not surprised that pep is strugling at all...

wouldn't surprise me if we paid Wayne Bridge's salary on Im a Celebrity.
 
Time waits for no man and this summer will see plenty of club favourites go as well as some legends.

To coin a phrase...."eeeeez football"
 
Love to see him doing a Brian Kidd type role , inter


Underperforming in Europe for 30 years? Really?

Let's hope Pep brings us European success eh, it's what the owners want and won't settle for less.

Currently we are miles away-how many goals conceded this year in the CL?

If you told Bayern Munich in 1976 after their third European Cup in a row that they'd not win it for 25 years do you think they'd call that a success?

I'm gonna go with...No.

If you said they'd get 2 in 41 years would they call that success?

No.

Underperformed in Europe for 30 years was an underestimate, its closer to 40
 
Sentiment aside, you cannot have a 200k a week player that never plays taking up a spot on the bench, just saying it sounds insane and the reason our Bench is so weak is we have players like Nasir, Bony, Hart, etc on 160k a week wages and they are being subsidized to go on loan, that's madness
Stoke are paying for bony and gave us a 2m loan fee as well if i remember correctly
Joe is being subsidized because pep wanted him out and because he has a long contract,we have also said that because he has been here for 10yrs we will let him go for a reduced fee in the summer
 
Ultimately my dream is to have the greatest period of success in world football, breaking consecutive title win records, retain th CL, win every season at Wembley in one of the cups.

That's my dream, that's what I hope we strive for.

What I feel is most important is that if Pep is truly going to revolutionise our club for the long term, that he commits to the long term and shows an indication of that by starting to ditch those who let him down on Wednesday and include those who are young and warrant a chance, not in the summer but now.

Don't put Delph on the bench, put Garcia. Don't put Navas on th bench, put Diaz. If you don't think they're good enough to stay, don't pick them now. Give someone new the chance to prove they're up to it.
 
For christ sake pep give the lad a game, who knows he might have a motm performance, and finish the match unscathed .
 
Demechelis, Mangala, Otamendi and Kolarov have all played at CH since Kompany started with his injuries and none of them have been fit to lace his boots but we've persevered with them as we wait for him to get fit, if anything the club have fucked up by not doing this a damn site sooner, great player, great man but we've done ourselves no favours waiting for him to get fit without actually replacing him, so this is the best decision for all concerned.

I agrees none are fit to lace his boots.

The club have fucked up in the players they have bought big time at centre half. That is not Vk's fault but that of the managers and those above him that make the transfer calls.

We need at east 2 world class centre halves this summer...plus someone to fill he role of Capt as well a no one in the present squad (besides Zabba who probably won't be here) has the presence to do that role either

Maybe buying a centre half with the idea of making them capt could also help attract the type of player we need?
 
If you told Bayern Munich in 1976 after their third European Cup in a row that they'd not win it for 25 years do you think they'd call that a success?

I'm gonna go with...No.

If you said they'd get 2 in 41 years would they call that success?

No.

Am I missing something here? Has Pep turned an underachieving Bayern into seriel CL winners?
