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

Happy Pep announced his goodbye. Gives the club plenty of time to look and even integrate his successor.
I can already say he’s been the best manager since I started supporting City back in 1976. Despite the sentiment Mancini brought. That won’t change. His successor has a big task.
 
The timing hasnt gone unnoticed. Chelseas signing Lukaku, Messi going to PSG and us not getting Kane was probably a kick in the stomach for Pep.His CL dream has suddenly got very difficult to achieve and the league will more then likely have new winners especially us without a CF. I don't blame him for wanting to try his luck away from champs league and regular league football. Such a shame if he doesn't fulfill his CL dream with us but no one can doubt he's been brilliant and is still the best coach in the world.

In other news Pep has just said “what I actually said about leaving was, after my period at Manchester City I will take a break. But this could be in two months if they sack me, in two years or five years if I sign for longer. I have no desires to leave Manchester City at the moment”

It's amazing that this was known almost as soon as the "leaving" quotes came out, yet plenty of journalists still wrote long "what happens after Pep" and "what will Pep try to achieve before he leaves".

Very, very lazy.

I'd put money on him addressing this in his pre arsenal press conference by pulling back the comments saying something like he does not know what will happen in the future, maybe city will sack him before the end of his contract or maybe he will decide to stay longer if he feels good and City want him to stay.

Pretty much nailed it. As predicted he corrected the inaccurate manipulation of his words he will take a break when his time at City finishes and he has no idea when that will be and no plans for that to end. He's staying for a decade at least!

Do you thing Pep is pissed with the club? Not being able to sell unhappy players, not being able to buy a striker. His mood today. Not looking good is it?

We don't really know what's going on though truly that's the thing.

Pep could've been in a "bad mood" because the training session preceding it didn't go as well as he'd have liked for all we know.

Who will it be? Poch? Luis Enrique? Zidane?
 
Missing out on a striker is disappointing but to lose this man with his success, style of play and the way he sticks up for us is potentially far more serious.
 
When Pep arrived i thought he would give us three good years of winning games and trophies , after the first season when the media and pundits were haranguing him over his tactics/playing style he could have easily quit.
But the guy has balls , stuck it out and rammed the words of his detractors down their throats , he's a determined , driven person who doesnt accept second best and we have been blessed to have him coach and develop our players.
If he left tomorrow he owes us nothing but i believe he will see out his current contract and deliver the Champs league our owners covet , and after 7-8 years dealing with our low life media he will deserve a well earned break.
