Guardiola in Europe without Messi (self.reddevils)

Bergli#LvG_OUT が 投稿

He is managing the 2nd or 3rd best team in the world and was trashed in the semi-finals in his first season, thumped in the semi-finals in his second season, and now he getting trashed at home by an injury-ridden Juventus.

I am so happy we didn't get this guy because he is a coward who always goes to the best teams, and because he for so long has been branded a genius for Inesta, Messi and Xavi's accomplishments at Barcelona.

Next season he will finally be exposed.

Well Manchester City is going to be a big wake up call for him. And baldy couldn't wait until the end of the season to announce he's leaving Bayern.

[–]PabloPervguy 21ポイント22ポイント  (3子コメント)

exposed by Mourinho and the gang.

[–]Bergli#LvG_OUT[S] 15ポイント16ポイント  (2子コメント)

He's been exposed by every decent manager he has faced. Now it's Allegri who is making an embarrassment out of him. He could have spent his post-Barcelona career taking on something challenging to develop as a manager but he decided to pick the only job easier than managing PSG, managing Bayern.

It is going to be very interesting to see him come up against the Premiership... we will finally see if hes as good as everyone thinks.

Fair play if he is buts its first real test as a manager

[–]jbiresqHerrera[🍰] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

By your logic Wenger isn't a decent manager.

[–]ManUChao7Memphis 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

This guy is overrated and hypocrite, he is a fine manager but not so special. Barcelona and Cruyff made his career he is nowhere near Mourinho imo. Can't wait next season with his already injury prone players at City and the cold,rainy and competitive Premier!

[–]xpoviv22 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Let's just wait and see what happens in this second half. I don't want him to, but they could turn it around. This is Bayern after all..

[–]Ketch1Mata 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

To be fair, each team he's lost to has gone on to win it so far. Let's not pretend he's clueless.

  1. Barca to Bayern isn't "always"
  2. Yeah what a coward wanting to manage top sides.

[–]Bergli#LvG_OUT[S] 3ポイント4ポイント  (5子コメント)

Barca-Bayern-City. That's always.

[–]Launch_a_poo 1ポイント2ポイント  (4子コメント)

Why would he accept a job at a worse team though?

[–]Bergli#LvG_OUT[S] 1ポイント2ポイント  (3子コメント)

As a manager I would expect one to have a certain pride in one's job. Not only pride, but also ambitions. I would say that a manager aiming to get a top 4 finish with West-Ham next season (or in general) is far more ambitious than someone wanting to win the french league title with PSG, or the german league with Bayern.

[–]pcaming 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

it's easy to think like that as a sentimental fan, but the fact is when your at the top you want to stick there. There's nothing wrong with only going for top clubs. I don't see anybody criticizing ancelloti for doing the same.

[–]Launch_a_poo 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Fair enough, I think he wants to win the league in every major country and I can't blame him either because there aren't many who given the choice would manage a lesser club.

I thought for a while he might want to manage all the major clubs like Juventus in Italy and the two he's managed but him managing City makes it near impossible for him to manage Man United, the biggest club in England, so I like him a little bit less now. Managing Barca, Bayern, United, Juventus, Brazil national team and co. would have been a huge achievement.

[–]jbiresqHerrera[🍰] 7ポイント8ポイント  (11子コメント)

I think there's a bit of revisionist history going on. If he had announced when he was leaving Bayern that he was coming to us instead of City people who would have been ecstatic.

EDIT: Downvoted so here's some proof people wanted Pep:

I wouldn't. Check my thread history. I posted a long essay on why I didn't want him.

[–]StannisJrScholesy 2ポイント3ポイント  (5子コメント)

Who did you originally want? Jose?

[–]Bergli#LvG_OUT[S] 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

Pochettino.

Glad I'm not the only one pushing for Poch.

[–]mrpiggywinkles52Rooney 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

I'd prefer him to Mourinho MAYBE, I've not thought about it much because I just don't think it's going to happen, he's digging in to settle down at Tottenham as far as I can tell.

[–]EricKingCantonaFellaini 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I would be content either way, tbh.

[–]TheUnfazedUnited 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Add me to the list. Never wanted him here. Glad he's not coming. He could win the quadruple with City and I still wouldn't want him at United. I just don't like his style of play.

[–]macAaronEGiggs 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

I wouldn't. I haven't been convinced by him ever. There are better options for United than Pep.

Edit: Here's a comment I made about a year ago talking about Pep not being the right man for United..

[–]jbiresqHerrera[🍰] 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

Obviously some people didn't want him but there was widespread love for him on this sub before he chose City.

[–]macAaronEGiggs 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Oh yeah, there was definitely a lot of love for him, no doubting you there. The same thing as always with this sub is that different people are vocal at different times. You aren't going to hear of many Fellaini lovers right now, even though there are plenty.

[–]wwanimalIrwin 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

I just hope Sunderland stay up so we can see Pep pitted against Big Sam

[–]Bergli#LvG_OUT[S] 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'd love to see Big Sam out-tactic Pep.

I feel sorry for City getting a manager who has failed at Bayern Munich.

[–]emperorfufuCarrick 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

He can do fine in the league with this style but not in Europe.

[–]noob_senpaiHad enough, next pls 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Once I said here that he is overrated because he always takes over established sides (and he doesn't have much tactical versatility) - for this I was downvoted and got plenty of hate. He just isn't as amazing as everyone makes him out to be. Of course, this was before it turned out that he is going to City and people were hoping that he will manage United... oh, how things change around here! :)

[–]A6M6Smalling 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I love seeing bayern lose. Their fans are massively cocky, a lot more cocky than even Barcelona fans, their teams full of cunts like Ribery, Robben, Neuer, Vidal and their manager always looks smug.

[–]Slyman180Herrera 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

In my opinion he's still one of the best tactical managers in the world. Are we supposed to trash him now that he's going to City?

[–]Bergli#LvG_OUT[S] 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

How is he one of the best tactical managers in the world? Do you not remember how he was exposed by Ancelotti in the CL? And now he is getting exposed by Allegri. Both Ancelotti and Allegri decided to play compact and on the counter against him. Every decent team with a decent manager can outplay his tactics.

[–]Slyman180Herrera 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

The teams you are talking about aren't decent teams with decent managers. They're elite European teams. Everyone wants to trash Guardiola like he's a false prophet but the fact is his teams are dominant and his players are tactically on another level. At one point this season his team was the only undefeated European team in the top 3 leagues. Staying compact and everything is easy to say but on the pitch it is a whole different monster. Everyone knows how bayern Munich plays, not everyone can stop it.

I'm not saying he's not overrated, because he may be. But to say your glad that any decent team can beat them is outrageous. Hate pep for going to city but don't get it twisted, he's a fantastic manager.

Definitely in contention for shitpost of the year...

[–]fredum -2ポイント-1ポイント  (5子コメント)

Yeah, thank Christ we've gone for the bloke who got knocked out in the last 16 by 10-man PSG last season.

This is some serious revisionism of Guardiola's record, getting knocked out in the semis by the eventual winners is no disgrace. Winning the Champion's League is far more difficult than you're making it out to be.

Edit: My point is not to discredit Mourinho, but to say that what's being called a failure for Guardiola is nothing of the sort.

They faced shit teams until the semi finals both seasons.

How about thank God for the guy that won the CL facing the greatest team in the world (Barcelona) on the way? Or how about thank God for the guy that won the CL with fucking Porto? Or how about thank God for the guy that Alex Ferguson didn't once beat away from home?

How about thank God for the guy that won the CL facing the greatest team in the world (Barcelona) on the way?

Brilliant. The reason they were the greatest team in the world is partly because of Guardiola. They certainly weren't before he took over

[–]Bergli#LvG_OUT[S] -1ポイント0ポイント  (1子コメント)

They stayed the best team after he left though. They only had a patchy period during the time when Messi was suffering from injuries and out of form. They also won the treble last year with a weaker squad than what Pep had.

[–]fredum 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

So would you say Chelsea's success after Mourinho left (the first time) is nothing to do with him? Or would you say it's built on his legacy?

You can call it a weaker squad if you like, I would say it's arguably the greatest forward line of all time.
