Pep Guardiola - 2024/25

We'll never know no, but I assume its not our coach highest priority to let fans see and decide for themselves if they are worse or not. In his professional opinion after seeing them in training every day they clearly are significantly worse since they are not playing. Maybe he's right, maybe he's wrong. We dont know but it seems a bit silly to me that people assume we have a bunch of great players Pep refuse to play for seemingly no other reason than him being a total moron.
And yes, of course it could look even worse. Instead of losing with 2-1 in a game like yesterday we could be losing with 6-1.

There you go again. Who has said - or even thinks Pep’s a total moron? I thought you were just a fan boy but now realise you’re a troll of limited intelligence.

So let's say some of you here get what you're asking for and we kick Pep out. Who do you think can fix this situation? Alonso? You fantasy football manager / reddit football fans need to wake up. We have the BEST man for the job.

He fixed a team that had the likes of Navas, Nolito, Sagna, Clichy,Zabaleta and a few other old players in there, the team we have now is not as bad as the one we had in Pep's first season.

He might go on to win something or nothing this season BUT what I do know is this, come next season, the man would be fresh and ready to go again and so would the team.

Something that really makes me happy is that this is Pep we are talking about here and a lot of these players might need someone to remind them of who they are playing for. Pep was ruthless with Cancelo, Laporte, Sane, Jesus, Sterling even Aguero. If players like Rico, Gvardiol, Grealish even Doku and Savinho don't sit up and make things happen, I wouldn't be surprised if they all get moved on at the end of the season.

And yet you assume I have no idea. I have been watching City for over 50 years I have a good idea what I'm talking about.

We all have a good idea what we're talking about. It's simply a difference of opinions on the subject in hand.

Castigating fellow fans simply because they have a different opinion is childish in the extreme.

I think my comments are close to the truth, others don't. Big deal. It's a bunch of people letting off steam. It matters absolutely zero in the great scheme of things.

Given the current situation, I wouldn’t consider making changes to a system that has become unsuited to most of the squad to be 'kneejerk blind panic'.

Pep is the one who needs to react with something other than 'more of the same'.

Regardless of the business, I think it reasonable to expect a more creative approach than 'more of the same' from someone paid in the region of £20m a year.

As I've said before, Pep's stubborn belief in his system will be the end of him. He'll probably die on his own sword.

What I'm not getting is when did this slow motion, negative, reactive "system" become the "Pep way"? This is ludicrous. Pep has utilized so many different systems over his time as a manager, many resulting in some of the most beautiful, free flowing football ever seen. Somehow he's moved into playing a static, yet high risk system that leaves no margin for error. This has been occurring for well over 18 months. Time for Pep to change it up again, but to something resembling the majority of his sides at City, Bayern, and Barca...

We all have opinions and we all think our opinion is the right otherwise it wouldn't be our opinion.

Can someone please post who has said Pep out. In spite of all the different narratives I've seen or posted myself I haven't seen anyone say Pep out. Are people reading stuff on social media and responding to it here? Because in spite of the concerns and critiques of Pep posted on here I don't see this big Pep out movement. I just see a group of angry clappers taking issue with anyone with the temerity to question our manager by hurling insults and calling people names. Critical thinking is not allowed I suppose...

It suits the purpose of a certain level of poster. Don’t expect a direct answer.

Any criticism AT ALL and the chief whips come out calling everyone out for not being the biggest and bestest blues ever ever invented.
