The battle for 3rd place

[dw7]

thought i'd list a few games where Pep took the piss and got burnt.
Celtic away.
Everton at home
Boro at home
Burnley away
Stoke at home
Boro away.

we eventually won at Burnley but we drew the rest. 8 prem points right there.

I agree with these but like the old manager used to totally under estimate teams instead of winning the game then relaxing after 60 min if 2 or 3 up

lets hope he does. that said having been held at home to boro he proceeded to do exactly the same at the away fixture. so didn't learn a thing on that one.

Stay optimistic kid - I'm convinced he'll get it right in time.

agree, I think 300m might help a little :)

Hahah. I stopped at Everton at home where we missed two pens. KDB and Aguero and arguably had our best performance of the season.

I agree.

That was one of the most dominant performances I have ever seen from a City team.

Burnley away as well? We ground out a performance and won.

Bravo will still be here to blame worry not

Celtic away was where it all started for me it was downhill from there me old China.

He's brought it up as he had a hissy fit when the team was announced and ended up taking a month off because of it.

Can I ask how Pep "took the piss" against Celtic away?

Played 4-1-4-1, the same formation and team which won the previous 10 games...

We can afford a draw and a win

Any manager that picks clichy on a constant basis is shite

two of the worst goals we have ever scored. we were terrible all day. we lifted every burnley player with our team sheet.

anyway lets see how the best manager in the world rips up the prem next year.

(I don't think he will but its bluemoon so we can only say nice things, deluded things and the like.)

Wenger, Mancini, Pellegrini & Pep?

Like Pep himself has said, when rotation works, the manager is a genius and when it doesn't, he's useless.

Rotation certainly did not cost us against Everton.

Say whatever you want Bill just stop with the crying and victim mentality when most basically laugh their tits off at you.

Idiotic comment.

4 points is not good enough for 3rd.

Worse case scenario but i think we will win both (don't blame me if i jinx it)
