The Post Pep Blues?

The clue is in the thread title Post Pep Blues. It was always going to happen and its rational to wonder what happens after losing our greatest ever manager.

If we want to win the league next year and do better in CL we are going to have to recruit well. We have just lost two incredible players one of whom played a crucial part in this season. Replacing them will be tough... hence the comment about who is a 'must buy' out there and the choices are few. Very few.
Your personal insults are just emotion based on sweet FA and ignorance of other supporters' history.
I was around well before the 80s. A 'fact' you got wrong.
Spoiled? Maybe. Something wrong in wanting our success to continue?

No spoiled as in underestimating what we have in place now and while u say my 'personal' insults are based on sweet fa your last reply told me everything i needed to know on a few counts, firstly the entitled nature of your original posts about must buys which typically is not something that city do and secondly if you were around pre the 80s as you claim to be and i have no reason to disbelieve you then i would expect you to have a much thicker skin and better sense of humour than to consider being called spoilt a personal insult given the shit we faced bk then and into the 90s, thirdly there is nothing wrong with wanting our success to continue but to think we are entitled to it is the preserve of rags, dippers and tarquins is that a road we want to take and finally ignoring the exceptional ownership and structure of this club is something we shouldnt do and makes life not so grim.

Feel how you want that is your right but if you feel that the tone of your original post wasnt somewhat entitled and you want to ignore the good things we have in place right now then that is your prerogative.

Bit of a play on words. Have to say I’m feeling very sad today, seeing Pep on the touch line for a final time yesterday hit me like a brick. It’s been coming, it had to happen one day but the end came about so quickly I’m in a state of shock I think. I can’t quite put into words how I feel. Gutted, uncertain, nostalgic, joyful.



Then there’s the other answer to the title question , what will “The Post Pep Blues” be like?



It’s certainly the end of an era, will we go on and win trophies? Will we go the same way as Arsenal after Wenger, Utd after Fergie? I hope not but it’s certainly a real possibility.



Is the next manager a stop gap until a top name becomes available? Kompany?



20 trophies in ten years! We can’t expect that again surely? I think if we get a quarter of that we’ll be doing very, very well.



One thing is for certain. No one will ever live up to, or beat Pep’s record. So we’ll have to be realistic in our expectations and patient with our frustrations.



What are everyone reflections on “The post Pep Blues”?

Can't say I disagree with anything there, and yes, I've been suffering from a severe bout of 'Post Pep Blues' since the day he left the club.

Mind you I'm really missing Bernardo too, there will never be another player like him, he was such an influential player and personality to have around the place.

We could do with some 'chamber' over at the Academy where yer put in the over-30s, give 'em a good rinse and they pop out as 23 yr olds.
