CitySide

Whenever I feel lost, and anxious, he always helps me find a righteous path. Om Namah Shivaya💙

Come to think of it, that's actually quite valid.

@insidewrite1957 Well, I hope he does but the reports suggest otherwise.

@CitehSide It’s basic by now that every time Pep signs a contract he sees it out 👍😊⚽️🩵

Seems like the fanbase has been left completely divided by the recent news of Enzo Maresca being a "potential" successor to Pep Guardiola.

Odegaard and Merino compared to Guehi and Gvardiol. Genius level stuff😂

@xpi3on6age9 @CITYDianaa

@CitehSide @CITYDianaa He must be reborn somewhere, we must find him. Only he can fix Pep, more than Cristina ever can…

If you ask me, I would have Pep extend his contract by a year or two and then go after Vincent Kompany to take over as the manager. It would be fair to Pep as he will get some more time with this new squad, and he has repeatedly insisted about "being better" next season (in both relative and absolute terms). If that "comeback season of 26-27" goes our way or not, we don't know. However, in either case, there should be a smooth transition between Pep Guardiola's exit and Vincent Kompany's arrival, which would be great. This is what I hope to happen but again, it's not in our control. Let me know of your thoughts.

@xpi3on6age9 @CITYDianaa 😭😭😭😭😭

@CitehSide @CITYDianaa The only acceptable replacement

@mcfc_robin3 Almost every squad at least at the final stages of the competition, usually consists of a skilled squad.

@CitehSide It is a failure when you look at the squad City had compared to the teams that were putting us out. And I would've understood if we were getting outplayed over 2 legs or something out of the blue happened. But most times that we got knocked out, it was due to pep messing around

I agree with this point, and will be critical of Guardiola for this. Ideally, we should have won the Champions League final against Chelsea, which we lost because he decided not to field a defensive midfielder when he has Rodri and Fernandinho at his disposal. It should have been 2 titles for us. Do we call it a failure? No. Can we label it underperformance (if we specifically talk about Europe)? Absolutely. Furthermore, 2 titles would have fully met expectations, as I believe that apart from the 18-19 season (unlucky due to VAR interference), we did not deserve to win the Champions League on other occasions. Additionally, had he won 3 titles, it would have fully cemented dominance in the competition, which sadly isn't currently the case. Let me know of your thoughts on Pep's European campaigns at our club.

@earninghaaland_ Systems fail without a backbone, at that time, a defensive midfielder was a key part of his system.

@CitehSide Man we couldn't even score in that game That's not down to a DM

@NewInnBlue He's not eligible.

@CitehSide So we're not entertaining the idea of Guehi?

Assume that John Stones is fully fit. Who would you pick as the centre-back pairing against Arsenal? 1. Stones, Khusanov 2. Dias, Khusanov 3. Ake, Khusanov

@PapaBearBets00 Fair.

@CitehSide I will never understand the Pep Out people. Those fans are actual retards. Particularly when no worthy successor is available

@long_live_Uriel That's also true😂😂😂

@CitehSide When aren't we divided on a transfer news

@insidewrite1957 It's basic by now that one should never trust his press conferences with face value.

@CitehSide Seems like the fan base is being duped by click bait again Especially as Pep has said a number of times he is staying at least one more year

@xpi3on6age9 100%

@CitehSide Because Pep’s successor being Maresca is BULLSHIT

@mancunianmedic Fair assessment.

@CitehSide he is completely the wrong choice Only managed Leicester one season and Chelsea 1.5 seasons Either we get a proven winner with CL experience or a dynamic young coach doing great work with far fewer resources like Iraola

@CitehSide The only logical reasoning.

@mancobi Exactly, it gives us room to understand his work too.

@CitehSide I agree. Let Vinnie do a decent stint at Bayern and see if he can maintain the success there and then have a smooth transition to takeover from Pep at City.

@Cafelover259 It's not that bad to be honest.

@CitehSide Big summer ahead which means that anyone replacing Pep will be stuck with a Pep squad. Why would Kompany give up a good job at Munich to take on that poisoned chalice?

@xpi3on6age9 I mean, he was the one who got them promoted.

@CitehSide I’d be fine with Kompany if he didn’t drop a huge stinker with Burnley

@CITYDianaa Even if they want him gone, then my question would be: who is the replacement?

This man has been winning consistently for 8 years plus. Better than any manager City has ever had Now he has little cracks in his strategy and the fans want him gone??? Ungrateful 🤦🏾 Tbh this season has not been that bad we are second in the PL, FA cup still in sight and Carabao Cup Final THIS SUNDAY!

@mancunianmedic His favouritism is an issue, correct.

@CitehSide Rodri is nowhere near what he was before the long injury lay off Nico G was playing really well in same position before Rodri came back But Pep repeatedly leaves the DM positions light when he should really play two of NOR/NG/Rodri there And won't accept that Haaland needs a rest

I have a strong feeling that once Gvardiol comes back from injury, it would be potentially over for Ruben Dias. What are your thoughts?
