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

He created arguably the best club side ever at Barcelona. The football they played was mesmerising which we saw when they took arguably what was Taggert’s best group of players apart in two champions league finals. Look at Gerrard Pique, wasn’t destined for greatness at the rags but turned into a world beater at Barca.

I remember watching City play Bayern at the Etihad back in 2013 during Pep’s first season there. I’ve never seen a team dominate City like they did that night, we didn’t have any answer to the pressing and graft they put in. One stand out moment was Phillip Lahm pointing to Jesus Navas (who had the ball) which direction to go past him. Navas went where he pointed and Lahm slid took the ball off him and passed it onto another player all in one move. It didn’t even turn into a competition that game until Boatang got sent off for them.

Look at what he’s done at City, he turned Vassell and Zinchenko into left backs. Phil Foden is now one of our most important players coming from the youth ranks when the idiots in the media were saying he should have gone on loan. He’s won a league without playing a proper striker. How many times has he evolved what he has and turned it into something else and still been successful? I fully expect him to do it again with what we have now.

He’s amazing but I don’t think even he could’ve brought Vassell back from the dead.

I've got no problem with him getting a new contract.

As a coach he is at best mediocre. There is not a single player in the entirety of his career at City that he has coached into a better player than he started out with. There is no one there that improves in a way where you go 'Well that is because of the coaching'.

He is at his very best a guy playing Football Manager with cheat codes.

You can respect the trophy haul (no matter the number of asterisks you put next to their 115) . But I just pity him, his players and their fans. It will be meaningless

Very definition of a copium addict.

Just dropped my own little bomb in there in answer to this whopper:

To think City’s owners wouldn’t have stopped this before now if they could, is very naive… given more corrupt things happen every day (including by them) and that they’re a nation state with Govt ties, unlimited wealth and the best sports lawyer in the country. They tried to stop the Oct case being heard but it was … they said they’d win all the charges but they didn’t.

Let’s see what Fridays vote brings. Hopefully City desperately pressurizing clubs and paying Samuels and Keegan tons to keep posting their viewpoint, isn’t enough. A lot of clubs will vote against City for their own reasons/the right thing to do… guessing City, Villa, Chelsea, Newcastle don’t.

What October case is this? Are you referring to the APT case? If you are, I think you will find that it was the Premier League who wanted to delay the announcement of the outcome and City were more than happy to put it out there.

And what's all this about "they said they'd win all the charges but they didn't"? You do realise that there were no charges against City in the APT case because it was City who brought the case against the PL don't you? Not only that, City didn't have to win on every single point to prove that the rules were unlawful. They only had to win on a single one. And speaking of unlawful, it says a hell of a lot about you when your last paragraph basically says you're in favour of clubs voting for amended rules on Friday that could still turn out to be unlawful just because it's a vote against City. It'll be interesting to see which way United vote, considering you don't have a single penny of interest-free shareholder loans on your books and your new saviour Ratcliffe can't get enough of blowing smoke up City's arse in terms of how well we're run as a club.

Your post couldn't be more full of ignorance and bullshit if you tried. It's only topped by the sheer amount of unfounded horseshit spouted on the 115/129/130 charges thread. It often makes me wonder if anyone's doing any moderating when it comes to that particular topic.
