They concede tons of chances from own mistake and simple long ball. kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Everton can beat them 4-0, I dread what Spurs may do to them.If it will be the Spurs team that beat us 2 weeks ago and destroyed WBA then Pep is going to have a very hard time. Spurs in 3-4-3 is an oiled fighting machine. kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

communicate 2,703 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 For all the crisis that City has, Spurs had and United had they are absolutely within striking distance with Liverpool. City is only 3 points behind and Spurs has the same point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rmpr 8,977 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I am looking at the media coverage from Manure x Loserpool and they all saying Liverpool lost 2 pointa and blablabla, but am I the only one who thinks United played much better?

Unionjack 7,532 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 It was a great weekend for us apart from Costagate. I hate Mounure but right now I can see Shitty and them red North London lot being 5 and 6. We have to play 7 from the current top 12 teams away yet so lets hope the away support is as good as we had it today. Gotta get ourselves heard out there guys.

First time Guardiola came to a league where he has to actually defend, not only score, and he crumbles. City is far from the same as Bayern in Germany or Barcelona in Spain, reality check time for Pep here. Azpinator 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you think Mou/Pep would work out taking over a club like say Hull fighting for relegation with nowhere near the bufget theyre used to?

Pep is still an excellent manager, people are always too eager to jump the gun. He has taken really shitty decisions at City, its true, but that doesnt discredit what he has already done. Guardiola revolutionized football tactics, anyone who knows a tiny bit of football can see it. He created variations and player distributions on the pitch that no one thought of doing before. Yes, he had the fortune to have Xavi, Messi and Iniesta who were capable of putting all of this in practice. But his greatness is unquestionable. Period. However, others have already figured his shit out, managers nowadays know very effective ways to counter Pep's style. He is not the king of the hill anymore. Specially in a so well trained league. EPL is full of top, top coaches. It is obviously he would have a harder time. So, yes, Guardiola's season is terrible and he is mostly the blame. But that doesnt mean he is a fraud nor that he is an average manager who had luck and nothing else. He can very well recover from this and evolve. He still deserves the benefit of the doubt for all he has done. At least 1 more season. Tomo and communicate 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence, they always concede chances but they create tons of chances as well. The problem, in few games that I watch them, is the way they concede. It is beyond comical, they cannot handle simple long ball or they just miss standard pass in midfield. Plus they lost their key midfield in Fernandinho. When your deepest midfielder is old Yaya toure, you are in a big trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
