Something fishy about this. If City are guilt and relegated he and dippers would dominate for years.

The Telegraph did say last week there would be big news this week.

Manchester City have issued a full apology.

they’ll all need there inhalers with that news, hey goodbye you big toothed gormless looking fucker

 

[dadnlad]

what really poor timing by bingo just as pep is cracking up through answering a question asked him about uafa president talkshit at it's finest

 

[Odd socks]

Sky must have mistaken the news, giving over next 5 hours to reaction of him going.
He hasn't died, just put his notice in for fuch sake.

Are yous serious? Have you seen Leverkusen??

I've not watched them, but I'm aware of their progress under him. I just think it's a little too early to be lauding him as the next Pep, as has been mentioned on here. I'm not saying he isn't a good manager, or won't become a great manager, just wondering if the hype is a little premature.

 

[JTFactsPlz]

Could work for City if the dips get a really good replacement for him. New competition could interest and galvanise Pep. The thing City fans really don't want Pep to feel is bored.

This is the one and only time I’m going to say something positive about Juergen Klopp… but this City team would not have been as highly acclaimed as they are without that Liverpool side from 2017-2020. We would have just rolled teams over and we’d probably be looking at 6 on the bounce. Would a 100 pt season have happened? Who knows. Those three years where we won it on the final day of the season versus Southampton, Brighton and Villa wouldn’t have happened. Games that will be stuck in my memory forever.

I do worry that without somebody like Klopp in the league it just becomes a cake walk - and I don’t want that, I want every win to push us to our best. Maybe Alonso can step into that void, we’ll see. Every He-Man needs a Skeletor and every Superman needs a Lex Luthor - and as much as I rag on the goofy fucker, he is ours and in that respect I’ll be sorry to see him go.

Anyway… now that’s out the way… I hope Liverpool falls into the sea.

They are not etched very well in the memory. We finished 25 pts above Liverpool the year we got 100 points, who finished fourth, so not sure they played any role in that and we did not clinch the title on the last day against Southampton, we clinched it weeks earlier.

But your overall point I agree with they have pushed us and made us achieve even greater feats. If Xabi Alonso takes over we might also see better relations between the clubs and a more respectful tone taken towards City. That can only be a good thing as fostering hate is never a positive thing

Rag at work has just told us that he'll be leaving because Scruffy Jim is transforming the rags back into a superpower and Klopp won't want to try and compete against them...

The rest of the office erupted in laughter and he couldn't understand why!

 

[youngbob]

Sounds like he's retiring.
