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

Everyone single one of us has weakness, and so do the great's, I think Pep's is self doubt in the Chapions League.

I said earlier, his Barca team that beat United at Wembley were magnificent, in my opinion that night they produced the greatest performance in the history of club football.

Compare that to last night, arguably we are as talented ( Messi apart) but were sent out waving white flags from the start.

An incredible contrast.,
Have to agree with all you’ve said. Last night was the first time I was really disappointed with Pep. I have to say as soon as I saw the team I thought “oh no what’s Pep done this for”. Not only the selection, formation but also looking at the players, apart from KDB none really made think “this is a great team”
 
The more of his players we get in the squad the worse we become

How much of it is down to him or it is the Director of Football?

There seems to be a systematic failure at not our club but at all our feeder sister clubs as well.

We've produced one player (Aaron Mooy) deemed decent enough to be a squad player. Meanwhile NYC get schooled consistently by a club formed a couple of years later. Melbourne City are meh. Girona relegated. All these "CFG" signings are mostly garbage. Who is signing of on this crap and why is it acceptable?

Our youth system is broken and they don't get opportunities. No clear pathway to the first team.

Is it our scouting and if it is then why don't we just hire Dortmund's? Much has been said about Sancho and we can argue about that forever but they also signed Claudio Reyna's lad when Reyna was still employed by CFG. How unreal is that. They also signed Bellingham who's at least two levels above that lad we signed from WBA, Morgan Rogers.
 
Pep just needs to go back and look at his time at Barca,or even the back to back title seasons with us,he has changed his thinking on formations and football way to much,yes you adapt and improvise but maybe he just needs to take a step back and go back to tried and trusted ..
