Pep's contract situation | 2 year extension confirmed! (pg1817)

[SatOnTheWall]

No semi finals in 4 years. Would Bayern, Barca or Madrid keep their coach in these circumstances.
If we are aspiring to be an elite club then we shouldn't either

If any one of them can look Pep in the eye and say they’ve not made a massive mistake that has cost us while at City with a straight face, then they are better liars than I give them credit for. They have all fucked up ar times, with the exceptions of Ake and Torres, and they will at some point. And if they get funny with the manager, he’d be justified in ramming their own mistakes right back at them.

Ederson v united and lyon
Fernandinho v Newcastle
Laporte v Tottenham and lyon
Sterling v Burnley and lyon
De Bruyne v everton
Jesus v lyon and so many offsides

I could go on, but I think you get the picture. They are all human and make errors. You win together and you lose together.

Come on,City, use this pain and win the lot next season.

Been a weird season.

Has had an air of half arsedness about most of it.

It all seems a bit too cosy in the dressing room.if i am being honest

Same players starting every game,whilst some are unfairly hooked and benched,rotated.

That first Leg of the Milk Cup at the swamp sort of summed up our season.First half we ripped them a new arsehole.We could have been 5-0 up at half time.

They came out in the second half with a totally different mind set.Backed off,gave then a reprieve.

We should have picked up where we left off,but we didn't,Pep says he never told them to back off,but the team did.not venturing forward,conserving energy.It all looked deliberate.

we went in to Derby the same way.It was like they just were not that arsed.Yet we knew we were more than capable of destroying them.Fans picked up on it,but were labelled small time mentality.We had bigger Fish to fry.

And that for me has been the story of the season.Always saving for bigger games.

Who knows maybe that came in to play last night.

Maybe in our mind Lyon was beat,one Eye on Bayern a bigger game.

Hope he stays. He's the best about and I'd love to see him given the chance to right the wrongs of this season.
I'd like to think the club won't be as mental as a fair few fans and overreact to an admittedly poor performance.

Please stay Pep we’re not worthy of you oh mighty one. If you stay another 5 years you might manage to win a couple of the really big games. Also it would probably take another 5 years to think up such a strange team as last night again.

He's lucky to have us

I disagree. Lyon fully deserved to go through. But had the Stirling chance gone in, and we went through, we'd have done it by working hard and scoring fairly, and controlling chunks of the game. which isn't a travesty.

Not even getting into the VAR decision, because pre var, that would have been a goal all day long. As i moan about var overturning decisions on a pixel, won't complain about this one. Could have gone our way, but if roles were reversed i'd be saying not enough in it to rule out a goal.

The margins were elsewhere, and didn't happen. The tactics and set-up didn't help.

Agreed - travesty was probably a bit OTT on my behalf.

The better team on the night won........

If he stays, he needs a strong assistant who will say to him: "Look mate, pick a team that plays to our strengths. Do not analyse to the point of paralysis."
If Pep persists...." No, mate, think again."
And maybe one who knows how to organise a defence.

Fuck me, we lost a football game and then 40 pages of 'get rid' shite appears.

I guess you were on holiday for the rest of the season;-)

 

[hilts]

His constant "were are not yet ready to win the Champions league" or " we have little of no history in europe" is pissing me off.
We as a club have spent hundreds of millions on the world's best players, have the best facilities available, have hired the "world's best coach" yet he knocks us down all the time, why?

If I was Khaldoon, baldy would be in my office Monday morning for a serious chat, and sign on the dotted line (contract extension) or adios and gracias.

Wonder what his excuse was at Bayern because he couldn't pull that shit there. All the signs are there they have been all season. Do his Barca boys have the bottle or does Khaldoon?

I think all 4 need to sit down and plan his exit strategy to save face.

Does Tikix go as well? I am sure Ferran is in for the long term with the CFG ( his baby) .

But tomorrow morning I hope all 3 are sat in front of Khaldoon and sort this mess out, because it is a mess.

Last night was embarrassing, after the decision at CAS things were looking up and that should have motivated everyone at that club to go and win the trophy and shove it UEFA's proverbial.

This morning the world of football looks on and sniggers again, and rightly so.

F.H.Lee was right, if there was a cup for cock ups we would be champions.
