Saf isnt even top 10 if we're being honest. Just alot of British media hype.

Heck he isn't even the best to come out of Glasgow.

Same one you get for being pummelled 4-0

There's a way to lose

I'd rather go out fighting all the way trying to win the game

Dominate

Ala Sacchi

Which is what all the great teams did.
Lol.

You could also call it sterile possession that is unthreatening.

Pep fails a lot considering his resources. I'm not sure why you can't face that.

SAF>Pep>Carlo>>>>>>>>>>piss>>>>>>>>shit>>>>>Piolo
Send some of the stuff you take...to have Pep as the 2nd best manager of all time....you definetely are on some good stuff man.
Pep is literally playing Fifa Career and won 1 CL with CITY and 2 (if i remember corectly) with that Barca team that would have won them even if i would have been their coach. No need to talk about the absolute f**k all he did at Bayern..but yeah such a great manager.

His playstyle and Man City`s play style yesterday made me feel like i was watching handball passing around ..from the left to the right and back to the left..

So winning the best league on the planet is a failure?

Going out on pens vs Real is a failure

If that's a failure, then show me who's winning.

You’re literally embarrassing yourself.

You can’t even take your L.

Deflecting and bringing up those 2004/05 defeats 😂

The matter of fact is, Guardiola bottled it once again. 1 CL in 8 years and losing to the likes of Monaco, Lyon, Spurs is embarrassing. But yet you act like those didn’t happen lmao.

Secondly thinking control and possession is the only way to win games or be a better team is such a backwards way of thinking.

You’re not owning shit, you’re just deflecting and acting embarrassingly.

Take your L ‘lad’

Same could be said about Carlo. Only won with the 2 biggest teams in ucl history.

Won ZERO UCL titles with Juve, Bayern and chelsea

But hey let's overlook those failures lol

But But money 😂😂😂

Pep 🐐

Got city their FIRST

Dominating the opposition. Sometimes it may not come off....but more often than not it does.

He's facing serious and credible charges that he's cheated in his two best spells at Barca by paying refs and at City with financial cheating.

He's lost to LYON in the CL. Monaco. Tottenham.

Tottenham. The bottlers.

BTW, EPL media and fans drooling over how great rivalry in terms of star power between City-Pool (2018+), saying they are 2 greatest squads in history of English football.

Still can't come close to Milan-Juve star power before Calciopoli :proud:

Oh you want other dates

How about getting knocked out by the mighty arsenal in 2008

That was a great defence of our ucl title eh lol 😆

Won't even mention 09 as that's unfair due to Pep never qualified for the europa league

U seem to not know one thing kid. I love carlo more than you. But for me I learnt to accept that Pep is the better manager and belongs up there with the likes of Sacchi etc

Carlo is still great tho.

Tottenham. The bottlers.

And those losses to Liverpool, Madrid 2x, and Chelsea. His squad was definitely superior and he still lost.

It’s okay to lose to these teams.

But surely in 8 years, if he was a GOAT level coach, with the resources he had, he could win another CL?

We aren’t talking about a normal coach after all right? It’s the GOAT isn’t he?

If people didn’t claim Guardiola is a goat, then he was successful. But the standards for him is GOAT, for a GOAT, to not win multiple CLs with this city side, that’s a failure.

You constantly downplay his achievements.

I couldn't care less.about the charges tbh

I'm only here discussing his football

Which dominates the opposition

Which fans of all clubs would love to see their team do as well.

I mean isn't this what rnb criticises pioli for

Not saying Carlo is the GOAT but Pep is clearly not even close to that.

Sometimes i just wish we had Pep when Pioli was hired to see how would "the GOAT" bring us back where we are without playinf Fifa Career Mode money wise

He dominates Luton but when it comes to the CL when teams have some quality, his teams come up short consistently. Consistently.

I'd rather have Carlo and win an ugly game then pat myself on the back because we played well but lost.

Pep has lost with more resources than anyone else, it's absurd. It's why I don't want to hear about Carlo with Deportivo or Liverpool, because Pep has done worse.

I know you don't care about cheating because it brings into question his dominance and whether it is genuine or not.

Tbf

You could have managed those real and milan teams to ucl titles

3 of those are legit claims for best starting XI of this millennium

Ffs he had

Di maria
Modric
Cr7
Bale
Benz

In one final

That's Brazil 1970 level. 5 genuine match winners in your XI

No need

Just go look at barca 08 on where they finished in the league and how they exited in the ucl 08.

Then go look at their rise

BTW the money argument is weak. United and Chelsea have spent a billion but can't even make top 4

Hence why united fans spend more time here 😂

Milan predicted lineup vs Fiorentina (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Gabbia, Tomori, Hernandez; Bennacer, Reijnders; Pulisic, Loftus-Cheek, Leao; Giroud.

No Chuk, the most in-form player right now?
Chuk has never done anything good in his career as a starter

Look at Milan before Carlo came from 1996-2001.

And after.

And then Madrid, no CL title for close to 10 years. Then Carlo wins La Décima on his first season.

Come on.

Use same logic you’re using to defend Guardiola

I fail to see any of peps failures equalling 05 bro. None whatsoever. Djimi traore lol. Vladimir smicer what in the actual fuck.

His dominance is genuine. Best bundes manager of all time.

Now dominating the best league at the moment.

Crystal clear
