Pep stay for 5 more years or a CL trophy?

[Colin Bells Boots]

For those of you who think winning the champions league will get people off our backs. NEVER it will be only won 1 or 2 etc. Pep another 5 years gets my vote without a shadow of doubt. CTID

I agree. The jealousy regarding our success is the reason that this is thrown at Pep and the club.

The media have been employed by certain teams to use whatever narrative in order to try and play down our success.

The rags and dippers use the media because they are unable to compete with City on the pitch.

It will continue even if we win it, we have upset the mardarses big style, and they kick back with the only thing they can use.

Until last week I would have voted differently, but his rants after beating the Spuds to mash makes me think he is keeping his options open. If the players respond (as I think they will) he will stay, but if they don’t he will go if no significant trophies this season.

Haha

Sticking with him when it’s not perfect shows loyalty and trust. Did he fuck city off when CAS came looking to destroy the club? Did he fook. As for keeping his options open? Literally could walk into any job if he wanted.

Well firstly we're talking about the difficulty of winning the CL in the context of our club, and the weak mentality we seem to have in this particular competition. But anyway, why do Liverpool have 19 league titles and 6 European Cups? Why did Fergie win 13 league titles and only 2 CLs? What would he say is the harder to win? There's not a single metric or statistic that supports the claim the CL is easier to win. There's zero margin for error in a CL final. Liverpool moaned last summer but they weren't clinical enough against Madrid on the night, shitbust.

If it were easier to win we'd have one by now, it's as simple as that.

We haven't won it because of VAR v Spurs and Pep having a brainfart when it got to the business end of the tournament.

Personally, I don't think we'll win it under Pep, and probably not u der his successor. Not because I don't like the competition, but because I just don’t think we're destined to.

We'll win the Super League in 5 years though

If we wasn't champions and continously winning things they would move on to the next successful team. So long may it continue. CTID

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.

There was no drop off when he left barca, or bayern. He leaves teams in their prime, well built and players hungry, if not somewhat unleashed.

I voted 5 years of pep in this hypothetical..In reality, I can't see him and the club lasting together another 5 years and a CL and glorious departure could well be better all round. Again as a hypothetical.

Either way, he signed a contract, he tends to honour contracts, he wouldnt have if he didnt think he wanted to stay that long, so I am not thinking abkut his departure for another couple years.

So, basically, we haven't won it because we haven't been good enough. Having a brainfart when you reach the business end of the tournament is poor. Likewise, VAR didn't shaft us; Agüero was offside and we shouldn't have been in that position against Spurs in the first place. See Liverpool, Lyon, Madrid last season. We've never been good enough in this tournament and a lot of that is on Pep.

With respect to the thread poster I hate these types of survey. Why is there a choice? We all (well the vast majority) want Pep to stay as long as possible winning as many trophies as possible including champion leagues. Any notion that Pep is desperate to win the CL and would bow out like Matt Busby when he does so is rubbish and I think his recent famous interviews demonstrate this.

This reminds me of 2011 when Mancini who was clearly trying to win our first trophy AND get top 4 was asked which he would prefer by a post match interviewer, he didn’t even give him an answer. Oh, and he got both!

Haven’t been good enough? The bookies don’t make us favourites out of the goodness of their heart. We have been good enough, we have been better than the recent winners, any eyeball test demonstrates that. It will happen one day, maybe even one season when we DON’T deserve it.
