Pep stay for 5 more years or a CL trophy?

[Lavinda Past]

You can only be considered a great team if you win it eleventy billion times in a row just like the scousers did in the 80s

"European Royalty"

We can only dream...

Difficult call for me, but I probably rather have Pep.

Once Pep is gone, I think we will really miss him. Just ask Barcelona fans.

However well run we are the drop off will be huge, this guy is very unique and special and we have him in his prime.

Here's what I would prefer. City to win the Champions league and Pep to stay another 5 years, or is that not allowed.

It has to be the Champions League. Pep could leave, we could get relegated and when we are down in league 2 with 35,000 each week we can sing all about winning everything and dominating. We can dine off it forever more. Until we do, unfortunately the job hasn't been done.

It's the one the players, management, owners all want and it should be the ones us fans want now.

We were OK before Pep with our brilliant owners, so whilst there will inevitably be some drop off, we will be alright. We are in good hands.

Is the correct answer. Pep is mental but we will miss him when he calls time. Shame really as we are only just getting started.

Drag the shit out of it.

No, there's no correct answer with this. It's about opinions. My opinion is he needs to win us at least one to cement his legacy here, as do the players if they want to be regarded as one of the greatest teams ever. Would Pep's Barca be considered the best club side ever without a CL win? Would they fuck. What's the first trophy that springs to mind when people think of Milan early noughties? What defines Zidane's Madrid team? I want our players to be hearalded as the best, I want to see one of them parading a Balón d'Or around the Etihad; without a CL, there's not a cat in hells chance of that happening.

If Pep leaves us without a CL then his job is incomplete.

We will be alright but we won't have Pep.

Pep. Still not that arsed about chumps. Even if/when we win it the scum media will be you have only won it once/twice/three.....................

So then why are you bothered about winning the league? By the same logic, won't the retort of the scum media be "come back when you've won twenty"?

City fans suggesting they don't care about the CL is classic defence mechanism because we're yet to win it

 

[Frede Fup]

I prefer Pep staying for another 5 years, but I won’t be to sad, if we win the Chumps league this season, and he calls it a day.

Do you really need to ask that question?

Uefa corruption and the absurd overhyping of what is just another cup competition where 90% of the games are boring, pointless affairs.

Jesus Christ. It's not "just another cup". It's the European Cup. It's far and away the biggest and most prestigious club competition in the world. It's the trophy players from all over the world dream of winning. It's not like we're talking about the Johnston Paint Trophy.

We're outliers in that we're yet to win it. That has to change. It fans want to bury their heads in the sand when confronted with that fact, then so be it.
