Pep Guardiola - 2025/26

Hard to understand this place or many fans. The idea that it is wrong or laughable to tell fellow fans what I believe to be the case based on many conversations (on whatever topic) is just weird. And I am pretty careful what I say and don't say.

Honestly, wouldn't worry about it. People are going to have an issue regardless, best to just laugh at the response and get on with your day.
 
We've won everything with him. The man is an absolute legend. If he does indeed leave this summer, I respect Pep even more. Wouldn't want to see a Wenger-type situation @ City.

Gone back to a post from over 2 weeks. You need a thicker skin.
BTW always enjoy your insights.
 
Genuinely in tears now, though that is in part due to me currently suffering the 2nd or 3rd worst hangover of my life
 
Some pressers are suggesting this (as yet unconfirmed) news will unsettle the City players. If Pep is going I am sure he would have told the squad by now, stay or go it should give them incentive to win tonight and on Sunday.

If there was a mistake in the starting lineup it was starting a half fit Rodri.

Never ever a mistake to start God. Clearly his mind is elsewhere though, maybe he’s off as well?

Hahahahaaaaa what a guy.

Dunno if anyone’s taking any notice of me here but let’s not turn on each other and especially let’s not turn on the new manager. Let’s not do what the rags did and destroy his confidence. He needs our support.

The press will be desperate for that to be the case, because undoubtedly that was the exact reason for the timing of yesterday’s mail article. They want maximum disruption so that Arsenal win the league tonight rather than going to the final day at Palace. I hope it fires our players up even more.

Yeah, whatever.
 
There's no algorithm to determine the best manager in history, and football discussions would be boring if it algorithms said who's the best.

But there's no doubt Pep is one of the strongest candidates for that accolade. He is winning trophies at a better rate than Ferguson. And unlike Ferguson, he has changed football, maybe more so than any other manager in history.

I think he has looked tired or overwhelmed at times. He deserves a proper rest and then maybe he will manage again.

This perfectly illustrates the impact he’s had on the game. List could still grow as currently playing or more recently retired players will soon get their start in coaching.

Yes, but don't forget Bruce, Hughes, Ferguson Jr, Wazza, GazNev, OGS, and now Carrick all owe their tactical nous and stellar achievements to Taggart, so ...

(Did I miss any?)
