If the rot continues what happens ?

Jesus stop being naive

One win in 12 and we've been fucking battered today

Any other manager in world football would already be sacked, Pep deserves his praise but he also deserves criticism as do the player

Our form is worse than any team in the elague but Southampton who have 5 points....

Piss off, I have supported City since 1962, this is a confidence thing, brought about by injuries and a lack of squad management. Slagging the team off isn’t going to help, if the players don’t read this forum their friends and family probably do. They need support, not just from the spirited away fans who do their best to give the players support. Your attitude stinks, go and support the Dippers if you want.

Serious question. I can’t see Pep being sacked but how long does this go on for before he would walk? Lose to Everton and Leicester and I can see it happening. The boys aren’t playing for him atm. Can’t believe the drop off in standards.

Wouldn't put a specific game or date on it, but I think this would be the most likely outcome IF this form continues for the foreseeable. I'd think more of him if he stuck it out and got sacked than throwing the towel in, but to me he looks rather forlorn in his interviews in recent weeks and passive by his standards on the sidelines. Wouldn't be a great look for all his successes the first time he faced any real adversity in his managerial career he jumped ship.

Tevez, Aguero, De Bruyne, Nasri, Yaya, Silva, Haaland and so on. All top class by the time they came to City.

And that’s the level we need to be looking at in January, then more in summer.

This lot are done apart from three or four.

You trying to tell me since 1962 you've enver complained or criticise the team?

If you say yea, piss off that just ain't true

If you say no, piss off your high horse

Never heard of a fan who doesn't complain, yet we can't why we've done well over the last decade we have no right to complain?

What a load of rubbish

I support to club, and watch them every game as does everyone here, then I see just utter shit at you'd say we are as bad as Southampton (that's what the form says) who are embarrassing themselves...
 
i think he will walk unfortunately. Pep always said if he burns the players out or they stop working for him etc he would go and i think we`ve hit that point, staggering the drop off in 8 weeks to be honest and it sounds like the board arent going to invest heavily in January either
 
I think we’re completely done for this season and at some stage Pep will walk. We’re actually back at Mark Hughes levels defensively but without any creativity in midfield or attack.
 
I really hope Khaldoun does the honourable thing here and does it by Monday. There is no recovery from this with Pep in situ. It's become embarrassing for all involved. He simply knows nothing other than what he does now. The players have had their natural game coached out of them. Add to that around 12 of the 18 senior players are well past their sell by date. The orange has been squeezed so dry, nothing is salvageable. In short, this phase is over. There is no transition possible with Pep. It is rip it up and start again. There are no guarantees, it is unlikely to be achieved in the term of just one manager, and could possibly take up to 3 managers over 6 to 7 years. It could of course never happen. Any further persisting with Pep is delaying any possible future pick up. Sad, but true, and I have seen things in over 50 years supporting City that I could have never have imagined, however it is over.

Stop putting untrue words in my mouth, I was supporting City through the dark days when we got relegated to the third tier, I have been critical but this season has been difficult for the reasons I mention, and I don’t have a horse by the way. Enjoy your Christmas, glad I’m not spending it with you.

De Bruyne one of the best play makers for 18 months in Europe. Yaya - Serial winner at Barca just months before joining. Silva, Aguero and Nasri all champions league players, representing their counties at international tournaments and Aguero having over 120 career goals by 23. Come on.
 
Any other team *on the planet* would have changed their manager by now. It doesn't matter what Pep has done in the past if there is no route to a future, and I say that as a Pep fanboy. If the players are burnt out with him or he's burnt out in general it doesn't really matter, because you can't get rid of all your players. At a bare minimum he needs some new people around him because whatever the setup right now we're just going absolutely nowhere.
 
Let’s be honest 5 points from last 36 is relegation form.

They give us a -15 due to the charges (let’s be honest - it’s not outside realm of possibility) and with our current form is becomes a dogfight

all.potential.world.class players that turned into world class, after coming to us,except nasri
 
Concerned now that he's proper lost them. No way on earth this is only on injuries and a form slump. World class players in a thoroughbred team don't play THIS badly all of a sudden
 
Our board, Chairman have left Pep in a bizarre position now by concentrating on building a strong team of lawyers , marketeers off the pitch whilst one key injury to Rodders followed by a string of niggles, average signings leave us cruelly exposed on the pitch.
I dont like seeing Pep and his players like this as most deserve to bow out in glory rather this current shambles.
(Ederson, KDB, Walker are already gone mentally)
