I don’t know but assume the quality and style on display put him off and a lost cause so went elsewhere?

I know that but, and I did enjoy it, but it seemed a bit rushed at the end.

I don't look down at Stuart Pearce like some on here as he was a fine footballer and a warrior who played 38 times for us. Ok, he wasn't a good manager and we played boring football under him but i like the guy. And he's also a big Stranglers fan so he'll do for me.
But that 04/0 season under him, deary me: (

It was an interesting programme and comparison. The two best teams and both Pep teams. Barca with outstanding individuals playing as a team and us with less accepted (KBD apart) players sweeping all aside. I think our/his 2018 was more like Barca, but I don't know whether they came up against 6-5-0 formations like we do all the time. It could be, of course, that our players are not lauded as much as they were/are and we are the second coming, so to speak.
Were they better individuals Buscetts/Rodri - KDB/Messi - Bernie/Iniesta / Puyol-Dias / Stones-Pique etc. Were our fullback better? They didn't have a Harland (didn't need one obv).
I'm left with the feeling that they were the better team and I don't really know why. Maybe I've been conditioned to think that by the reporting over the years. One point the programme made was that, with Bayern, he made a mistake, not too dissimilar to the Chelsea CL final and I believe he was more pragmatic against Inter, ensuring the win.
If we are fortunate enough to reach the final again - whoever it is we face - I think we have to blow them away like Barca did to the Rags, to ranked better than them.
