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

[its a Barm]

He's also earning a financial package now that he will never see again in any future employment..

Personally think money doesn't motivate him.

 

[deano ou812]

Would be nice if he stayed until he surpassed the red scousers and rags title wins could you imagine it hahahahaha ropes going up everywhere..

Probably not, at this stage. I'd imagine he's fairly comfortable financially now.

I highly doubt his main driver is money, if it was he’d be going to the Middle East

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Whether he signs or not will be down to whether he feels he still is able to get his message across to the players and how much energy he still has, along with what his family want.

He’ll only sign for as long as he feels happy with, so a rolling one year contract may well be in the offing.

Stretford Red Socks more like.

I would be surprised if money wasn't a factor at all..

 

[MillsyTheMosher]

He’s staying.

 

[HolisticJim]

Amazes me it's not in the news everyday. The media normally make such a meal of any discontent.

 

[I'm no cynic but...]

Managing a club and managing an international team are two entirely different things. At a club, a manager is working with a squad every minute of the day whereas managing an international team he just has to pick up a newspaper and see what the journalists say about their ideas of a squad.

He would be the only employee on planet earth that thinks that way in that case

You say that but rumour of 3 more years the day the Government drop his tax band by 5%?

Wow then thought of that. :-)

He’s signing. I’ve been told is been on the cards for 12 months, and it’s one of the reasons Haaland chose to come to City

Completely agree. This is how I view it:

Managing a club you have to personally manage every player's life situations. International level is what you can influence for one off occasions.

Lots of people put job happiness over bigger wages. I suspect Peps one of those.

I very much doubt Haaland would have come if he wasn't given some security about Pep.

 

[Silva2021]

It was only a joke about time etc, but it will make a big difference to our highly paid players and Pep.

Who knows Bernardo might even stay now he can afford to have his heating on all year round :-)

You'd assume that the agents of these players that have signed for us in the last year or so (NMS, Akanji, Gomez, Phillips) would have been quizzing the club about what the long term future held re the managerial structure at the club.
