Pep Guardiola - 2024/25

[sir baconface]

It's very logical too, as a team that doesn't control the game and concedes has to run more to compensate for it. As a result, we get more injuries too. It's not that the players don't run, but that we can't hold on the ball long enough. The control was gone with Rodri.

Something very wrong if it all hinges around one player.

Subs are terrible ,game managment awful
Marmoush shouldnt be off

We lost the step, gonna blow it

I like how he he’s finally moving away from the inverted fullbacks nonsense. This should be our shape going forward.

Dave Basset in a big cardigan…

Didn't we win the Treble without inverted FBs? The nonsense is in your head. Like in the head of all those posters who are absolutely convinced they know better.

Nunes and Gvardiol now play as strikers so we have moved in further forward.

 

[clarion]

Much better if you play few midfielders, Pep. Isn’t it?

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

I thought he showed his underutilized pragmatic streak with how direct we were. I also find it hard to credit the opinion that he has lost the team when you see that level of application across the board today

Well done and well deserved

didn`t follow the day by day news in the last month but why does his right eye look different (noticed it against PSG)?...did he had a stroke?

divorce is painful but it means change/a new chapter...i hope he can adapt it to his profession..get away from this 3/4 CB BS & make the midfield & WB the center of your philosophy again

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

I presume it was an eye infection or conjunctivitis or something
Pretty common when stressed

 

[ninjamonkey]

His rumoured mistress is into the old watersports...

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

I wonder what he was saying to Palmer after the game

 

[sh249]

Smart move to go with a proper midfield three. Much better shape and gave us more control.

 

[Blue_Lightsaber]

As mentioned in the other thread.. he's stumbled on a system where Bernardo is allowed to roam and make up for Kova and Gundo's shortcomings and full backs position as wing backs acting as exit channels with permission to go forward.

Worked against Ipswich and Chelsea, didn't work against PSG

basic 2 - 1 - 3 - 3 - 1



Anyways he looks happier and that's all most of us care about!

Yeah, it's quite funny when some random guys call out a tactic from the best manager in the world as non-sense, while that tactic actually helped us to get treble.

" what the fuck are you doing with your hair"

Smart move to go with a proper midfield three. Much better shape and gave us more control.

And also at long last, play the ball long and get the ball in front of Haaland.

 

[alexmcity]

The thread isn't busy. The moaners are silenced, at least for a day or two. They couldn't see us not just beating but completely outplaying Chelsea with Kova and Gundo in the middle. Must be in a state of a shock now.

 

[youngbob]

Got it spot on yesterday. Adapted our tactics to Chelsea's and caught them off guard. That high line of theirs was suicidal, as it proved. Don't think I've ever seen us score three route one goals in a game under Pep.

 

[DMA's]

Don’t know how but he got Bernardo, kovacic and gundogan close together in midfield. Worked really well yesterday
