Why can't Pep seal the deal?

[horsechoker]

His habit of choking in the semi now extends to the FA Cup.

I wonder how he prepares for big games and why he tries so hard, and gets so far but can't go all the way.

Dysfunctional tactics. Erecting a good side is fine, but keeping it there is the tricky part

Last season?

Anyone else seeing the Viagra adverts on BT also?

[King Eric 7]

Needs to learn from LVG, who knows how to get the players horny.

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

Ever since Arteta left him, he's been on his way down. Including his taste in fashion.

 

[Zen86]

Bad coaching

Happens to one in five.

 

[SalfordRed18]

He's getting found out with his most expensive side.

 

[redshaw]

The cold weather in Munich and Manchester.

Won the cup last season so not sure what this is about? Also won the league cup 3 seasons in a row.

Mate... don’t know how to tell you this, but they’re targeted ads based on your partner’s searches.

 

[DeGea]

It's maintaining it once you get it that's difficult.

Watching on TV pal. Are you speaking from experience?

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

Their cup draws in the last few years have been outrageously lucky.

Anytime they've faced a top 6 side in the cup it's been much more of a struggle for them.

Is your TV connected to the internet?

 

[ivaldo]

They overplay it and end up trying to thumb it in.

 

[AllAtSea]

Thought baldness was a sign of virility?

 

[Fooza]

To beat city is to let city have the possession, defend and counter.

His style is a lot more easy to play against than before. I thought Arteta knew exactly what would happen. City had to resort to crosses in the box by the end which is very unlike a Pep team. He's been found out by a lot more teams this year.

 

[Berbaclass]

No, it is not actually

Not a case of targeted advertising here I'm afraid to report.

 

[TheGodsInRed]

The semi man needs a statue erecting at the Etihad.

He Pep it!

Lack of Peparation.

Think it depends on the clientele really. Arsenal did what they had to do with the players they have. But I don't envision Madrid, or Liverpool (on their best day) etc would need to let city play their game.

United too.

 

[Irrational.]

They've had some stiff opposition lately, whilst the players he's spunked money on have turned out to be flops.

Ah we can all wax on about how we used to be able to get more than a semi back in the day. Age catches up with us all my friend.

Especially without Aguero, he's a huge miss.

He has the habit of always being in the right place for a tap in, he only needs 1 touch to score.

When people like Sterling are having off days he just can't score, it's really strange. Jesus isn't the same natural scorer either.

 

[Champagne Football]

Pep spent £130 million on Cancelo and Rodri last year, with Pep having the nerve to say City couldn't afford Maguire too, and neither of them have really set the world alight this year. But they'll probably come good next season.

Pep's lack of faith in youth is almost Mourinho level. He lost Sancho because he wouldn't give him game time. Leroy Sane didn't really get a long enough run in the team. Foden's season spent on the bench is a disgrace. He should have played far more minutes.

City will ship out a few in the next window, David Silva, Gabriel Jesus, Otamendi etc might leave and I think City will buy big this summer.

I'll be surprised if they don't replace Aguero or find a finisher like him in the window. I hope they don't.

 

[Web of Bissaka]

Not a good statement to make with this loss not long after winning the appeal.

Enjoying every single moment of it.

 

[CM]

Oo-er!

 

[Ekkie Thump]

Left Ot'n'bendy on the bench

 

[golden_blunder]

Limp thread

 

[Adamsk7]

There’s a joke about Pepto-Bismol and Pep-abysmal somewhere.....

That doesn’t have anything to do with erections though...

 

[Dante]

Last season?

Sometimes it's hard to get past a semi so soon after the last time. If Pep waits a little bit, it'll come naturally.

He made the mistake of thinking he could get together with his ex and he that he wouldn't even need to put in the effort. If anything, it's even more important to be wary of a semi when you're going to the Arse.

Obviously he doesn't find finals sexy

Yeah but what has he done lately ?

 

[Class of 93]

He only cares about having the ball(s).
