It's been said that Peps methods burn out the players after a few seasons.
This is his third at City.....
Pep has said that himself and it’s clearly a contributing factor, however the World Cup and injuries I believe have been far bigger factors. We haven’t been able to give extended rest periods to any player really, especially in midfield and right back. Our only natural left back is injured and will be for a while so we’re really suffering.
