Pep - Manager of the Season 2017/18

You’ve got to be kidding PB! They’ve scored 35 goals, didn’t win a game between December and March, and their ‘style’ of play amounts to lumping the ball downfield for Ashley Barnes and Sam Vokes to jump into the opposition centre halves (ie foul them) non-stop for 90 minutes. They’re just the least shit of the also-rans. To give the award to a typical hoof and chase English manager, who spouts the same kind of one eyed crap as Allardyce whenever his team gets beaten, in a season when Pep has smashed all manner of records and revolutionised English football completely, would be the travesty to end all travesties
Is 100% correct. If they award it to anyone but Pep, they will be a laughing stock.
 
It’s a sad state of affairs when a club is one win off the most points in the premier league era, most goals, biggest winning margin, most wins, most away wins, already has the biggest goal difference ever, won the league the joint earliest AND still might lose MOTY to a guy finishing 7!!!! Never mind the football, domination of possession, tactical ideas etc
 
Sean Dyche has been successful in his own way no doubt about it. If it was City’s promotion season 2002 when we ended the PL season on 9th with Keegan, based on the logic used on Dyche Keegan should be shortlisted during that year as well.

The question that needs to be asked if, if Dyche was manager of this City team will he have won the league, even not on a canter? And if Pep was manager of Burnley will he have finished higher than 7th?

I have a feeling Burnely with Pep will finish higher, but City with Dyche will be caught in top 4 scrap.

Pep should win manager of the year award. He has made the league react to how we play. Teams are wary of pressing us and keepers feel obliged to play more football. And this with fighting on four fronts witht more games against strong oppositions, winning two of these battles.
 
Thing is Klopp will probably win it. Appreciate only 5 teams could enter CL this year but don’t let that get on the way.......
 
If Dyche and Hodgson are such great managers, then why are they not been linked with the Arsenal job?
 
If i was Dyche i wouldn't want it. Look what's happened to Pardew and Pulis since they received the award when our managers should have.

I mean look at the job the likes of Hughes and Moyes did when given a chance? Like Pulis and Alladice they are good at getting clubs to a certain level. Even with the same budget as us
Hodgson and Dyche would not have taken their team to our level.
 
I wouldn’t quibble if Dyche got it to be quite honest. Pep’s taken a team that was widely tipped to win the league and - er - won the league. Dyche has taken a team widely tipped for relegation into the Europa League. I wouldn’t begrudge him the MOTY award.
The beauty of our football, the goals, the domination of the league, what more could Pep have done? Contrast that to the dour football Burnley have played. Dyche has done well but Pep has done a hell of a lot better
