Okay he is still an all-time great, but getting knocked out by Lyon this year and spurs last year is a travesty.

He's doing a José right before our eyes. All whilst playing on cheat mode too.

Ballbag is back

He makes an excuse for him every season. He went on a 20 minute tirade last season on 5live about how Laporte v Spurs miscontrolling has nothing to do with Pep

9 defeats in the league, which that City squad shouldn’t be losing that many especially to teams like Norwich. Knocked out the cups by Arsenal and Lyon. He didn’t really learn from the Arsenal game, who played with a back 5.

Teams are finding out the way to play against them especially away from the emptihad. He’s not adapting.

He won't get fired. The shillt journos are already working on pieces absolving him of any blame.
He never teaches his teams how to defend. That arrogance costs him in Europe in the knock out rounds.

Watch him get a couple of hundred million in transfer funds.

This is a fair question: Is Mourinho a better champions league manager than Pep ?

For someone basically working on cheat mode his whole managerial career Pep has been shite. He has been shooting fish in a barrel with a rocket launcher, given the squads he has taken over and the infinite funds at his disposal. Without Messi he has been average.

That and not Fergie is a definition of underperforming in Europe considering he pretty much always had best teams.

Few days ago I was actually thinking who at the end had the bigger success, Klopp with Liverpool or Pep with City.

But after today there's absolutely no comparison. Klopp all the way for me.
Yeah, as much as I don't like Liverpool he absolutely trumps him.

not going to happen, but would be great to see him feck off and go back to Barca.
Not until we're a valid competitor for the league we don't :)

He would not dare go back to a Barcelona without peak age Xavi, Messi and Iniesta.

Not without a billion to lash

Career created by Messi, Iniesta and Xavi. Has never achieved anything more than he should have with any other club, in fact has underachieved. Sir Alex is well safe as the best manager of all time. He's a great coach but that's all he is.
