Cicero Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 15 minutes ago, The Rebel CRS said: English pundits really look like clowns now don't they? When Pep was managing Barcelona, they all claimed how he wouldn't get a team to play like that in England(yet he's doing it with a inferior team), how it's too physical, couldn't handle Stoke on a Thursday night, blah blah blah. Luckily we are seeing a better bunch of younger pundits hitting the scene now, such as Lampard, for example, who would be embarrassed if he heard nonsense like that in the studio. Tbf, they probably at the time didn't take into considerartion that Pep would inject nearly half a billion in two years on transfers, to help achieve that.

It's not a fact of how much has been spent, the level of quality of the players or anything mate. They made out as if the style of football would be impossible to implement over here due to the physical aspect of it. But in reality it's aload of nonsense.

That's partly down to what Guardiola is known for. He took youth players and implemented a great philosophy. The market at that time wasn't nearly as crazy too. They probably thought Guardiola would come to England, take youth players and try to play expansive attractive football. Whereas he has done that, but has done it virtually the opposite of what he did with Barca. No youth players and out spending everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant make a silk purse with old men and the players you mentioned, Silva, Fernandinho are the wrong side of 30 and Aguero is fast approching his 30th birthday ..he had to spend, we had the oldest team in the league, now we have a very young Pep team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 On 01/02/2018 at 13:13, Happy Blue said: If Manchester City win eight of their remaining 13 Premier League games then it will be mathematically impossible for any other club to catch Pep Guardiola's team and that's if United win everyone of there last games, the more points they drop, the less we need to win the title. Liverpool, Chelsea and Spurs could both still finish above united too, what game will the title be won at? Outstanding fixtures Burnley (A) Leicester City (H) Arsenal (A) Chelsea (H) Stoke City (A) Brighton & Hove Albion (A) Everton (A) Manchester United (H) Tottenham Hotspur (A) Swansea City (H) West Ham United (A) Huddersfield Town (H) Southampton (A) My old man is a City fan and I got him tickets at Christmas for the Swansea game. Long shot but fingers crossed, that's the one where they could clinch it. Would love to see him have his moment given all the years he's seen more down's than up's.
