How do we get better next season?

Its madness what Klopp is doing to him.

Before City Dortmund vs Bayern he already had better record vs Pep and Bayern had much stronger squad like now with City.

Since City vs Pool:

6 games, 4 Pool wins, 1 draw, 1 City win. Only City win we had 60 minutes vs 10 players.

Pep is keep getting punished defensively the same way in these games. Klopp knows some of our weaknesses and he must be surprised that those weaknesses are still there and ready to be punished every time he has to play vs Pep.

Currently Stones is out of form and lacking confidence yet some are obsessed with seeing him start against a Spur's team that are as vicious as Klopp's scums. Spur's have a big man upfront and we all know Stones is a frail defender that doesn't ever do well against big attackers, Falcao destroyed him, Firmino bullied him of the ball easily and yet you want to see him up against Harry Kane, the same Kane that totally bullied Ramos and Chellini? Pep isn't stupid he wouldn't play Stones.

Not to bothered about head to head manager battles I'll take the trophies instead :)

I mentioned it some pages back that Klopp is to Pep what Pep is to Mourinho. Klopp isn't the better coach but he has found a way to get under Pep's skin and Pep is always on the edge whenever his side comes up against Klopp's team, this edginess makes Pep over think his tactical game plan and most times the game plan ends up failing. Pep is a proud man and I understand that the hesd to head results probably mean a lot to him, however for Pep to overcome his new nemesis, he needs to forget about his record against Klopp and stick to his working system, the heavy losses we suffered against Klopps team this season was down to Pep's over thinking, looking for that unorthodox xfactor he can use to stun Klopp and it has ended woefully.

This. Great post.

Just for clarification and perspective

- We are on course for the greatest top flight league season in the history of English football

- The Arsenal invincibles won one trophy. We will have two, plus the above record.

- There is a strong chance we will finish with more points than the entire La Liga season unbeaten Barcelona.

- The brilliant Chelsea team of 04/05 won the same trophies as us (current record points holders) and lost to Liverpool in the CL. We will finish with an even better league record than them, having also played miles better football.

- Think of all the success Ferguson had at United. He only ever had two seasons where he won more than (or bettered) our two domestic trophies (98/99 and 07/08).

- We will finish with a better league record than United have managed in their entire history.

- We could score the most goals in a season of any team in the history of the top flight

- This is the most successful season in the history of Manchester City

- This is only Pep's second season and we will get better and better

- Our young players will get better and better

Lets do a head to head of trophies won between Pep and Klopp whilst you're at it.

1. Defend better instead of keystone cop style.
2. Be more composed,ruthless & clinical in front of goal. We create so many chances but are so wasteful when it matters. These misses have cost us dearly.
3. Midfield replacement for Ferni is a must.

Granted we are on the back of a terrible week. It shows we need improvement and I think that it can only be a good thing. For more than half the season, we have been lauded for playing perhaps the most sensational football in league history, and that is with a team that we admittedly still can improve on. I think it's much worse when we are league champions and realizing there's nothing much else we can do with the team.

After some of the decisions we've seen this season, our best signing will not be a player - but VAR.

Previously vehemently opposed but now all for it. Don't mind Liverpool progressing but I felt robbed by a big refereeing error last night. 2-0 and it's set up to be an epic second half.

But the supporters there and football in general was robbed by a referee. Football is stuck in the stone age and VAR can't come quick enough.

Pretty much sums it up for me.
