Pep Guardiola - 2022/23

[GaslightAnthem]

Pep has plenty to sort out. But calling for his head after everything he has done is ridiculous.

Pep is the problem though… he’s alienated our best players. Dias, Laporte, De Bruyne…

When Pep eventually leaves, who will be his successor?

Kompany I would guess. Personally, and I know it won’t happen but I’d love Mancini to come back. Probably just me though ha.

"Even though he's just signed a new contract, and the club will never, ever sack him, and he's already said it's his job to fix the problems for next season, if we keep saying it, he'll walk".

It seems that some people in charge at the club think that if they have Pep he will fix everything and that they don't need to do their jobs.

Ederson

Walker
Stones
Dias/Laporte
Ake

KDB
Rodri
Foden

Mahrez
Haaland
Grealish

Just play that fucking team and formation and get used to each other, if any of them need a rest them replace 1 maybe 2 at a time.

It’s not rocket science. If players are unhappy they can go, we’re not arsed about unhappy players not playing.

If he IS losing the dressing room, the answer is, and always will be, to change the dressing room. Even if that means offloading the entire squad of 25. And the reserves.

You never, ever, ever, ever, allow footballers to dictate who their manager should be or how their manager should manage. Ever. Under any circumstances.

if a few players have given up, and it looks like they might have, you get rid of them. Whomever they are. No questions. Gone.

You ALWAYS back the manager if you want to be a successful club. Especially a manager that has won as much as this one.

Come on you know that is not true. In most cases when you have lost the majority of players the manager goes. It’s disingenuous to suggest otherwise.

Same job as he does the other side? : / He's only played LB once, today!. He looked like a fish out of water and out of his comfort zone playing there. I'm not blaming Rico but he was running on fumes second half yet Pep decided not to sub him for Laporte.

he hasnt hes played it in youths systems but i get senior. I mean he inverts like he does when he plays rb. Personally as great as hes been we need to just go back to dias laporte walker and ake. if he wants a player to sit at side of rodri put phillips there.

Majority yes but to suggest its the majority is made up bollocks, maybe a couple. Also Pep isn’t most managers no chance he goes or the club even consider it. The club will sort out the squad in the summer and we’ll be ready for a fresh start.
Plus a good chance we still win a pot or two this year.

He'll start Ederson at centre-forward against Villa. Love Pep to death but it looks like our lads have as much of a clue as to what's going on as us fans. Awesome team-selection, tactics and performance today against Spuds. Well done, Pep. Well done, lads.

I agree that is what usually happens, but I think we would rue the day if we go that route and I personally would never feel the same about that dressing room (as much as my opinion counts for anything obviously).

Just imagine the billy big bollocks goings-on to the next guy if we let it happen. “We got rid of the greatest manager since Ferguson, so watch your fucking step or you’ll go the same way” etc etc.

Anyroad mate, we’re all a bit fucked off tonight of course so I’m going to sleep on it!

Suprise, football is not transitive!! Liverpool are like 10th, while we are 2nd, so we are much better than them. A lot of teams beat Spurs, but we tend to struggle. It happens.

Yes but my point is Spurs consistently shit the bed against the other top teams, even the rags regularly beat them there, yet not only do we lose every game we can't even score a single goal, how the hell is that possible ?

I would have picked Dias as RCB and Laporte as LCB with Ake as LB but I'm not a bizarre bald genius.
