Giving this a second watch, bloody hell we are so lucky we have this guy picking the team. Do not take a minute of watching City for granted, it will take along time for us to find anyone who is anywhere near as good as him to be manger.

I think I'll be watching the dug out more than the game next time.

It was made for mass consumption aimed at folk who know more about false eye lashes than nines.Regarding the show I thought it good, but lacking in any sort of depth as to why he's the best. No nod of the hat to the false nine Foden season, the Stones role last season from both rb and cb. The coaching required to pull those two off alone is off the charts.
It waxed lyrical about all his achievements, but didn't scratch the surface for me. So many tactical topics to delve into.
I thought it was a very good tribute to this generational talent.
Although, the bit where he's being filmed sleeping as a kid is well creepy. Wtf Barca???

He was at Barca since he was a boy. Over 20 years at that club. It helped make him the man he is.He was manager of Barca for 4 years and City for 7+. I presume the point was that it spent longer on his time as manager of Barca even those he’s been at City longer. It did feel like the Bayern and City years were quickly covered compared to the rest of the documentary (player, Barca B, Barca).

Just watched it, then both my kids watched it.
Definitely aimed at mass consumption, rather than a niche audience. Still have to pinch myself that Pep actually came to City, & is still here, especially after the Klopp news.

No one is saying the Barca part should have been shorter. Just that the City part was quite short and kinda rushed through and that it would have been nice to have been a bit more detailed. Seems fair.

I'm sure there will be more Pep docs coming. More City orientated.No one is saying the Barca part should have been shorter. Just that the City part was quite short and kinda rushed through and that it would have been nice to have been a bit more detailed. Seems fair.
