They may even hold an 87 points open top bus parade
There's a bidding war going on for their next sponsorship deal.

Leyland

All pushing the value up for the newly announced official United park the bus partner.

Sadly they didn't see in PEG's contract he has exclusivity.

Trying to force Jesus and Aguero into the same side is the result of squad mismanagement, added to his bizarre use of KDB.
There's a severe lack of goals from midfield imo

He's been useless so far and worse than the previous manager. Not impressed at all.

He's going to drop a lot of points this season.

Pep's stubborn refusal to change is hurting City, much to my delight.

Pep is obviously a very good coach, the football he prefers is not suited to every player and league though. It's quite clear that English football lends itself to teams that have pace and power. You can argue about whether that makes it old-fashioned, backwards or whatever. Facts are facts though and Pep just won't accept them.

Pep in another league, where possession and technique matter more, would do better. However, Pep in this league has gone full Van Gaal. He's more interested in his philosophy being proven right than winning games the easiest way.

His problem is failing to adapt, his Football hasn't changed in 8/9 years but everyone else's has. Teams know how to beat him or at least make it as hard as possible, he has no other method of playing because he is tactically poor.

Cyprus Hill.

The Liverpool game was fairly even and just as shite as ours in terms of quality until they went down to 10 men.
Pool could have easily beaten them. City were arguably the worse team till Mane.

Maureen's comment about Liverpool not giving him an opening are annoying, what does he mean? Why was his game plan to wait for Liverpool to let them a score? Doesn't he know you have to force things like that to happen? Why does no one in his interviews ever call the rat out?
In case you hadn't noticed Klopp has an excellent record generally against the top 6 and he is a lot more tactically savvy then the happy go lucky persona he likes to pretend he is.

From last year when he came to Old Trafford and asked Lallana to man mark Carrick to this season when he claimed that he did all he could to win but refused to alter his shape despite having two strikers on the bench. Mourinho was right to point it out and despite most people drinking the Klopp look aid a few people at least have picked up on it.

You have to admit though if you don't even attempt to score against the top six you will be struggling to win the title this season.

The home games we have to have a different mindset and approach for sure. He'll no doubt have a plan against you lot at the Etihad.
 
All this talk about Maureens job security is mute because all the Glazers are bothered about is a top 3 finish preferably but top 4 will do. A cup every now and then and knockouts of the Chumps League. That will keep the sponsors happy and the cash cow ticking over nicely thank you.
Maureens complaint at the moment is that the rags are set up to do exactly that so any Manager of any worth will not be happy with that set up (excluding Wenger of course).
