Pep Guardiola - 2019/20 Performances

[lonestay]

I have said it before but I just don't see where Pep goes after City. At City he has everything, no internal politics. An owner who is interested in football but doesn't interfere, a football board that has incorporated him into it's major decision making and look on him as a major part of it not just a hired coach, the CFG itself being a worldwide organisation, world-class facilities the list is endless . What other club can give him all this to work in ? If he did leave, anywhere he goes is a step down from City and a step down from being at the leading edge of influencing football in the future .

I think he signs an extension, maybe a 2-3 year extension. I feel this even if our ban doesn't get overturned.

He seems to have a real connection with the club and fans. True honorary Mancunian.

Think it was from the sun but don’t know the journo/source but Eric Garcia is said to be “happy with our plans for the future” and considering signing a 4 year contract. Pep extending?

I think he will extend by 2 or 3 years, to 2023 or 2024.

Then I think he'll take a break, and finally he'll go and manage in Italy before retiring. Roma, AC Milan or Napoli - depending on the state of each club at the time - win a league or two and retire in his 50's.

Always felt like he might try international management though after all that.

I don't think his style massively suits international management but I can see him wanting to do it - I think he's said as much.

The problem is the Catalan independence movement isn't going away any time soon or becoming less politically divisive in Spain, so he won't get that job. Brazil only hire Brazilians, and seem set in their ways.

And I wouldn't wish the England job on him even if he thought the players were there.

So it might be one of those things that gets away from him. Or maybe something that happens a few years after he retires from club football.

So do I , though not sure how suited he would be to it without the players all the time to drill in his way of playing only a couple of countries would have the players for him

I can see the Dutch or Belgians hiring him.
