Regarding City and Pep, they had a bad year last season, but if there's one coach who's very good at reinventing himself tactically it's Guardiola. Following a poor season they're defensively brilliant and collectively playing very well again, and doing so without a no.9. It's a testament to his ability to innovate and adapt when necessary and turn it into something successful.
I wish Pep wasn't at City because when you watch the movement of the players and the coordinated channel runs and passes you see moves that you don't see other clubs attempting. Not even Liverpool. It makes me wonder what he'd do with the likes of Martial, Greenwood and Rashford. But alas, we're in a great position with Ole and we have to be grateful that we're in a position to make challenging for the title a real possibility!
