It's not just OTT, it's OTT Grade - A Premium.

He's a football manager who happens to be leaving a club, probably going on to manage another club somewhere else.
Something football managers have been doing almost every day since time began: it's a transient profession, you inbred, self-serving scousers. Did you think he was going to stay there until he died? He's going to finish the job, get in his car and fuck off home, considerably wealthier than he was before he turned up at Anfield.
There is not going to be the melodic voices of a Heavenly choir serenading him as he ascends to the clouds to meet up with the rest of the Gods. Angels will not be majestically swooping down from some celestial Promised Land to guide him along the way to where his gold-encrusted throne awaits him.

Snap out of it: you drooling, overwrought, melodramatic morons. You won your Asterisk Trophy by outspending everyone, playing Fat Sam hoofball and falling over in your opponents' penalty areas as often as you could.
And that gurning cheerleader's antagonistic and quarrelsome nature has done nothing to repair your utterly dreadful reputation, quite the reverse - there are now many many more people who have turned their backs on your vile club because of that deranged German.

And you dipper fans want to celebrate this?

I will piss my pants when he turns up managing in Saudi or Germany next season. Probably with Salah in tow.

But Pep has had the greatest impact in English football of anyone, other than the early Scottish pioneers who first introduced tactics, and Sir Alf who won the World Cup. As you say, nationwide from grassroots to the PL, the majority are now influenced by Pep. Passing out from the back is a basic nod to Pep, but at grassroots level it's the focus on touch and technique and controlling possession. We're going to produce some incredible footballers as a result, and it's thanks to Pep ultimately. We'll finally be able to combine the physicality and speed upon which English football has always been based, with the technical ability to dominate the opposition.

Absolutely. 100%. I've noticed a few teams in the Championship are now adapting the Pep way: playing out from the back, keeping the ball on the ground, etc. A few years ago this was not the case, particularly in the lower leagues. The keeper would just hoof it up the other end and hope something good comes of it.
A lot of these stoneage managers (Pulis/Fat Sam, and one or two others) put out the excuse that they don't have a sugar-daddy owner with billions and billions to splash out on the best players available, but that is just laziness on their behalf. It is too much like hard work on the training ground to install a method of play that is far superior to hoof and run, they even use derogatory terms to describe it, tippy-tappy football, or something similar.
The work ethic for the team begins on the training ground, and if you don't have the motivation, or indeed the knowledge, to adapt to the changing world you should get out and let the next man take over. But it doesn't happen, because we are constantly seeing the likes of Steve Bruce turning up at yet another club with their awful football.

Today, more and more teams are copying Pep's way, and it's a good thing. You won't get crowds queuing up to get through the gates if it's nothing but glorified pub football. This is the 21st Century.
