In some ways I guess we should be grateful to Bingo for providing the opposition to drive City to new heights. The Centurions season was great but winning by such a big margin every year could become boring (after about 20 years).

Bingo is the Joe Frazier to Pep's Muhammad Ali. Hopefully this season will play out like the "Thrilla in Manila".

only.ever saw Klopp pre scouse on the odd dortmund game and liked him, also Dortmund under him gave us one of our hardest games in the champions league.
I will admit when he left them I would have been happy to see him roll up here if Pep wasn't coming.

However, he did come to England and become their manager, then we saw what a right mard bellend he was, moaning about any and everything if they didn't get their way. He properly drank the red scouse cultist kool aid, plus we witnessed his brand of football it's basically wimbledon under Joe Kinnear with better players.

im not sure i can agree with your assessment of their football - they are pretty much the only team who could outplay us during the Pep era.

that said your response is the only grown up one - everyone else has predictably reacted like children

ive much preferred the pep/arteta/klopp era of respect between the managers. its a damn sight more in the spirit of what sport should be than the fergie/wenger/benitez/morinho vitriol.

Frazier was every bit Ali's equal, it doesn't work as a comparison for me.

Bingo is Jake LaMotta - Pep is Sugar Ray Robinson. Or as I've said elsewhere - Bingo is Godfather 3, Pep is Godfather 1 & 2.

I quite like Klopp, and hopefully all fans of opposition clubs like us lot can respectfully state what a great manager he is/was and understand that its a 24/7 pressurised role that is impossible to do forever. best wishes fella.

oh no wait lets all go on social media and post memes and stupid comparison tweets like fucking 12yos

Fuck him.

The day he said it was a good day for football when UEFA banned us from Europe was the day he lost any little bit of respect I had for him.

And that should be the same for all blues.
 
I get the rivalry, but a bit of a lack of class in here. Yes, he's been obnoxious at times, but personally I have really enjoyed his rivalry with Pep, and he's led a team that have at times played really good, exhilarating football. Good luck to him.

Hard to argue with it being better, as they were genuinely toxic, and while Pep has his moments too, the other 2 are still moaning tossers for me, though they do seem to have some respect with each other.

Football fans are acting like football fans after the announcement that the manager of one of their biggest rivals of the last few years is leaving. Do you expect to see City fans wishing him the best and hoping he leaves with the league title?
