Now all those saying that pep was overrated because he managed Greta teams, look at what he has done with city. If only we had some luck with ambitious owners backed with an ambitious manager.

Knock it off mate. You do realise our owners have ploughed so much into the club, actually more than most fans know as Ed2 has previously said so why don't you give it a rest or go support Man City, PSG or any other oil rich club.

Mtunzini123 come off it, if you think we lack ambitious owners is shows how little you really know about the club.

'Look what he's done with city' - can you explain to me exactly what he has done apart from buy top quality players to match his system? who couldn't do well with that much money at your disposal, City was bound to run away with the league one of these seasons, it happens to be this season, you think this is because of pep? I personally don't. Put him at Liverpool and see if he could do the same without that much cash. He's always had everything handed on a plate to him.

Man city, PSG etc would make Moyes look good as manager if they had that much in funds to spend. Well, maybe that's debatable but you get what I mean.

Take over a club with the England national goal keeper. I don't fancy him, I'll buy a new keeper for £17ml on a 4 year deal. One season later., I don't fancy him so I'll buy another keeper for £35ml. While I'm at it, I don't fancy my full backs, I'll have two at €50ml a pop.

He's reinventing football alright.

OP, no one has ever said Pep is overrated. He is a damn good coach and fine manager, no doubt. What we are saying is that he always goes to teams where he has the best players and has DEEEEEEP pockets to spend. He has spent half a billion in the past two seasons so what were you expecting? That they don't run away with the PL? Pep is a fine manager BUT being able to spend 300m every season definitely helps and that, you can't hide from.

Our owners are not City owners (SHOCKER) where if Pep sign a poor GK like Bravo for 35m and he flops, no problem. They drop 40m the next season on Ederson and the move on. If you expect our owners to do that then for sure, you are supporting the wrong club so I suggest you go get your Citeh gear on and support them going forward cos spending half a billion on players in two seasons will NEVER happen under FSG and I am cool with that.

PEPS CRAP HE SPENDS MONEY. Come on lads don’t be bitter the fella is quality ‘I could do that’ I don’t think you’d could, spent money? Yes he has but as we’ve proven spending money doesn’t actually win you anything, they’re playing some of the best football I’ve ever seen, they’re smashing records and they deserve the credit, all of them. Last season everyone would have written off otamendi, Sterling Delph and he’s getting something out of them. Is a job easier if you have more money? Probably, but there is a reason he’s one of the most wanted mabagers in the workd.

johnbarnesleftpeg - who said peps crap, I don't recall anybody saying he was crap? and how is he the most wanted managers in the world? because he wins things with some of the best players in the world and has one of the biggest bank books by his side? come on, be realistic I don't even want to get into it but your lack of knowledge is really showing mate. My question to you is, would he be an improvement on Klopp (just for an example) and if so, how? please tell me what he'd do to improve us with our budget and all, think of it. If he took over tomorrow, how would he improve us, would he win us the league in 2 years? no he wouldn't and that's how it is, simple, why? we don't have unlimited funds like he does at City. Money is making him look good, he;s a decent manager yes, but he's never been tested, put him in a team with limited funds and it'd make him bang average.

No one is saying he is crap. He is far from it. He is a very good coach. But I don't buy into the whole footballing genius stuff. Plenty of people are pointing at how well Sterling, Stones, Delph are doing as a sign of how amazing Pep is. These were not players brought through the ranks at city nor were they young players signed for 5 or 10 million. These were big money signings because they were playing brilliantly already and are now doing that for city.

Ok he may not be a footballing genius but in my opinion he's comfortably the best manager in the world at the moment. It's hard to think of anyone better. He wins tournaments, breaks records and plays the most entertaining football.

When are people going to realise Liverpool can't compete with City financially. It's all over the papers that VVD is going to City in January because Liverpool won't pay the £70 million transfer fee. I don't think it's a case of won't pay it's more a case of can't pay. I can't go into a dealership tomorrow and buy a £70,000 mercedes because I simply can't afford it. I think we are dodging a bullet in regards to VVD anyways.

Personally ford mate i think we could afford him, but i think we choose not to which i think is the right decision (if that is the case), I don't think he;s worth anywhere near that price.
