Ihenacho should have started aguero way off the pace and bony had enough chances in away games. Not even on the bench poor management and favouritism
 
Name a single game he's ever coached which doesn't have 3 midfield rotational spots, a defender breaking the man marking system, two players playing wide the entire game and a 2 man central attacking system using possession based football.

You can't, because that's how he sets up every single game and according to him, will continue to setup every single game until he retires.
He might use the same over riding ethos and philosophy of counter pressing/recycling possession and maintaining possession with the aim of creating overloads. But positionally he changes, especially since he moved to Bayern. He wanted to utilise Martinez in the same role as Busquets but he had a really bad injury and instead they signed Xabi Alonso, who was more mobile and given more freedom to operate centrally and on both sides of the pitch. He has mastered 4-3-3, 3-3-4, 2,1,2,2,3, playing with a false 9 or going strikerless, to then utilising an out and out striker. I understand that he unperpins these types of formations with the same philosophy and ethos, but to say he sets the team up the same every single game is selling him short. His attention to detail is on a different planet to that of Pellegrini (who evidently sets his team up the same way week in week out).
