Pep's contract situation

[Phil1]

Pep Guardiola: “The challenge for us is to continue improving and evolving, and I am very excited and about helping #ManCity do that.”

Pep Guardiola: "I have everything I could possibly want to do my job well and I am humbled by the confidence the Owner, Chairman, Ferran and Txiki have shown in me to continue for two more years after this season..."

Pep Guardiola: “Ever since I arrived at #ManCity I have been made to feel so welcome in the Club and in the city itself- from the players, the staff, the supporters, the people of Manchester and the Chairman and Owner

Khaldoon: “It is testament to the qualities of the man that Pep Guardiola’s passion and intelligent approach are now woven into the very fabric of the football we play and our culture as Club

Khaldoon: "It also goes to the stability and creativity at the heart of our football operations. Importantly it is a validation of the football structure and philosophy that has been built over more than a decade and to which he has contributed so much

Khaldoon: “Pep’s contract extension is the natural next step in a journey which has evolved over many years. It is a product of the mutual trust and respect that exists between him and the entire Club

Khaldoon: “I’m sure all #ManCity fans share my delight in this new agreement and in anticipating the exciting opportunities that, with continued hard work, are there to be taken.”

So is it a new deal or an extention? The big boss man says extention but Corky disagrees? Who on earth could be telling the truth?...

I honestly think Pep has taken us as far as he can. He looks jaded and very much doubt he can get us to playing anything like we were. He has also become frustratingly stubborn and too loyal to certain players like Mahrez Rodri and his adopted son, Gundogan. If rumours of a one year extension are true I'd show him tge door and get Pochettino in before the rags sack the Norwegian cabbage patch kid and appoint Poch. And before any bright spark quips "what's Poch won?". Well when Guardiola was in the groove he was the manager that everyone wanted as he WAS the best manager in the world AT THE TIME!. But football is fickle and things move on... And If Levy wasn't such a tight **** on Spurs purse strings I think Tottenham would have won at least one trophy.

I think we have regressed under Pep and will continue to regress give that he seems happy enough playing the likes of Rodri and Gundogan together at pedestrian pace. Time for a change I think.

Do you think pep wants us to regress or he likes it if we are playing bad.
Pep has been with us for 4 years, if he feels he has done all he can, I am sure he won’t sign an extension. If he is not committed he won’t sign an extension. All we have to do is trust him that he can bring us good because he has done it before.

Is 33 the IQ of those in the picture?

( in total )

Why does this make it sound like he was going to go, but didn't want to leave during the coronavirus pandemic?

"I don't want to leave before saying goodbye" is not exactly what I'd hoped for when he signs on to be the manager for 2 1/2 more seasons.

Yes, but was he at York away?

Khaldoon: “I’m sure all #ManCity fans share my delight in this new agreement and in anticipating the exciting opportunities that, with continued hard work, are there to be taken.”

Only means Messi to me

 

[p.taker]

Is this a rift between Pep and Aguero? I thought they were leaving for Barcelona together.

 

[Decepticon]

Seems to be a lot of hostility from fans of other clubs?

That's a very very good sign!!

 

[Rhapsody in Blue]

Fantastic news <3

 

[Burtonblue]

The chances of signing Messi have just gone up to 100%
I need a lie down...
