Pep Guardiola - 2024/25

[Blue_Lightsaber]

We won i think the first three games ? Memory is bad so hope that is right , we did it without rodders

The only thing that changed is kova got injured and then more and more injured and some left playing wifh injuries

Gundy has had to be flogged , keeper keeps changing which imo is something you should never do , without a good defence it has been much more difficult to build up from the back, the defensive injuries are killing us

Bernie is running on fumes after years of running about like mad, kev is trying to come back to us , phil has been ill for ages

Taking all that into account pep can fix this when the lads can all play again but he must change the tactics to get us through this bad patch , he has been forcing his idea of beautiful football but it is not working . It will come again but till then adjust

Sadly..

I have to admit I was wrong about many things:

I'm just glad we don't see Pep Out clowns anymore!

Like Pep had to win a treble to kick out the bring back Bobby Manc brigade!

Once we get Newcastle out of the way we don't have a truly difficult game till Spurs on Nov 23. We should be able to get a system that works in place by then.

December is when it really gets tough..
Dippers away Dec 1
Palace away Dec 7
Juve away Dec 11
Rag Derby Dec 14
Villa away Dec 21

Right now I don't see where we get a bunch of wins to atleast clear 40+ points with our current squad..

Love pep hope he stays forever. But just wondering since hes never stayed at a club this long are his methods so intense that its almost impossible for the players to continue long term. Mentally aswell as physically overwhelming. Just a thought?

I was wondering if his methods could be outdated when football is changing? Is tika-taka now behind run and gun football?

Had time to calm down

Think we have to give him time, the next 5 games he has ti get some wins... he really has to

Worst case we miss out on top 4, but honestly HOW bad is that?

Liverpool, Arsenal, United, Chelsea, Spurs etc have all dropped out the top 4 over the last 5-8 years... we haven't

I dont know if he can get us out of this slump, it's not looking good ngl but I would want him here for the rebuild, even if it means having a rough season this year

Needs to show some bottle though and show he can make changes to stop this rut

Forcing the same methods with people not capable is the problem.

The way we're playing right now has never worked anywhere anytime, that's not tiki-taka and not Pep style.

Well we have the players to give it a go at attacking from a bit deeper.

Not really. Since there is player turnover. I doubt that's the issue. It looks more like age and injuries being the main factor.
