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

I don't see him managing an international side anytime soon.

Don't think he'd enjoy the small amount of time with an international side trying to get his style across to them for it all to disappear when they go back to their clubs.

Neither do I, however he can’t keep this workload indefinitely, at some point he will value more time at home. The small amount of time with an international side will be manageable.

Nobody better than him for us and there never will be sadly. For all his stubbornness he is the greatest fit for our club and we are the perfect fit for him. Nobody, try as they might will ever fit into his shoes.

No reason for him to look elsewhere, he has the backing of the board and 2 close allies in Txiki and Soriano. As long as his family are happy to stay, then he will sign another extension.

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

I think for most when they start out, money is a huge motivator. Once you hit a point of financial security, where you and your family are literally secure for generations then other factors do become as important .
Obviously there aren’t many lucky enough to be in that situation but Pep is and I reckon he’s at the point where job satisfaction is a bigger priority over an extra couple of zeros in his bank account.

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.

I’m sure those conversations will have took place, but the ones you name there we should be able to get regardless.

Haaland was the one and I believe Pep has told him he expects to be here.

Let’s hope he is
 
When Pep says how much he loves it here, there's no doubt he's telling the truth. If he weren't, then there's no way he'd have consented to a stay with us that, at the end of this season, will match that of his time in charge of the Barca first team and of Bayern put together.

When he arrived, I thought we might, if we were lucky, get one year from him beyond the three he originally contracted for, maybe two at the very outside. If, back then, someone had shown me the vision of him staying for a seventh season, I'd have been thrilled. Now it would be a huge disappointment if he rode off into the sunset at the end of the current campaign. Yes, we'll never get anyone else as good as him, but then I really believe that he'll never be as fulfilled in another job as he currently is in ours. The whole set-up is ideal for him.

So come on Baldy, sign up for a couple of years longer. You know it makes sense. And break Klopp and the scouse vermin at the same time. When Jurgen signed on there until 2025, he and his club were hoping for a couple of years after you moved on from here when they could rule the roost. Deny that to them and revel in how devastated they'll be.

Agree regarding Klopp hoping Pep leaves after this season and Klopp new this season also with the world cup he giving his players some what of a time of then next year fully rested have the an onslaught at all comps! pep signings for another two years will be a kick in the teeth for Klopp and especially the rags! Because all these managers know you need 90+ points to win a league when Peps in that league…

Apologies, you of course a man of huge intellect correcting my error, you are entitled to expect better. I much appreciate your wise words. Now you go in there, shoulders back and smash it BuryBlue
 
Pep should do it for himself and the team. I mean who wouldn’t want to manage this group of players for a little longer. This team hasn’t peaked yet and if we manage to get Bellingham then we’ll continue to be the team to beat. The piss boiling from the rags and dippers in the media and fan base is just a bonus and a lovely one at that.

I'm hearing the sticking point in contract negotiations is Pep wants to wear a white t-shirt on the sidelines for the first month of the season. He also wants a lifetime supply of sweater coats funded by the club. Soriano is concerned that Pep might be losing his mind after hearing these requests.
