Pep at P$G would play glorious attacking footy only to get bounced 4-1 in the semi's to Juve, Real or Barca

It'd definitely be some beautiful footy to watch though

nah this current PSG team with pep would be a damn problem
look at what he's done for all the young talents at city...made them all better.
KDB is looking like the best CDM in the world at the moment

the same KDB mou didn't even give a chance to

Give them an Oblak and then they're in business...

On a serious note,credit where credit is due. I'm crossing my fingers for Citeh to run out of gas at some point this season cause man...dudes look fierce right now . Firing on all cylinders

They always start out hot but damn now everything's been starting to mesh under Pep in his 2nd season. Just hope they won't be able to keep up the intensity and playing this level of footy 4-5 months down the line or else they'll run away with the league

Pogba can't come back soon enough

Fraudiola had a stacked team at Bayern and couldn't win the CL

They regressed under him actually

A "heralded" English footballer who never really amounted to much but sure enjoying the life of being a profootballer... Smoking jacket reference is for jack's penchant for smoking cigarettes while out on the town.

Frustrating for players in this situation cause it's not like they were Scott Sinclair who never did anything; rather that their careers were thrown off the rails by injury. It would be amazing to see what could have been for players like Shaw, Wilshere and Sturridge.

This just isn't true. Tell that to Bayern players who wanted Carlo gone because they felt they regressed under Carlo compared to under Pep

 

[eiddyfouw]

This is literally a PERFECT purchase for someone looking to come into the game.

Fans have been screaming out for new ownership.
VERY strong and loyal fanbase.
Historic club.
Solid manager already in place.

they just won the treble the year before... would be damn near impossible to win a treble back to back.
ask madrid. they are still waiting to win one

Bayern players were living on extremes, they complained about pep when he left, said they were happy to do less, got Carlo and wanted more work

Agreed. Newcastle used to be my go-to club for FIFA Manager Mode

The BM players come off as huge divas...always complaining about one thing or another regardless of dominating their league

Whatever happened to that Nigerian billionaire who wanted to buy Arsenal? Newcastle would be a great buy, there's so much potential there...

Sounds more like they don't know what they want

If I remember correctly it was only really Ribery towards the end that complained about Pep's intense training. Dont remember stories about others having problems. I could be misremembering though

Aliko would want a London club. He spends a lot of his time in London. Plus he knows there's a massive Arsenal following in Africa which would play in perfectly with him taking ownership.

 

[rolaholic]

Ribery's head has never come back down to earth after finishing in the top 3 for the B'Dor that one year when Bayern won the treble and melting down over how he should've won. Man has acted like his **** doesn't stink ever since regardless of his declining play

 

[QU!K]

People need to stop pretending anyone cares about the Copa del Rey. It's the Spanish FA Cup.

This just isn't true. Tell that to Bayern players who wanted Carlo gone because they felt they regressed under Carlo compared to under Pep

Actually it is true cause Pep didn't accomplish anything at Bayern they couldn't do before he got there.
In case you forgot.

He was brought there to do ONE THING. Win the CL and he failed.

Ah ok,yea Arsenal makes the most sense for him in that case but I can't see Kroenhke ever selling while he's alive

Really interested in seeing who steps in to buy Newcastle,their fans have been waiting for this moment for years

Yea not winning the hardest club competition to in the game right now makes everything else a failure. Never mind winning domestic doubles winning 3 straight league titles one being the fastest league title win in their history and 3 straight semi finals in the champions league none of that matters

 

[rolaholic]

Buggati Benz still looking out for where he came from



Real could def use Mariano's services off the bench this season though

Real Madrid got them back to back CLs tho. Something even Fraudiola couldn't do.

Why was Pep brought to Bayern b?

20 pages of for sure bants I gotta catch up on. but anyway my take on Chelsea's game:

-losing to C.Palace. Jesus.
-Kantegawd being injured hurt so much. miscommunication with the mid and back had Baka and Cahill bumping into each other several times for ball control. uncontested by the way.
-Moses going off for Zappa was a 1 for 1 replacement and they did well for what eventually happened.
-Willian should only be a sub from now on. Pedro should've started.
-Zaha played really well. MOTM and deservedly so. he was trained and came up as a winger at ManU. secondary striker designed for movement and disrupt the centre backs positioning even. bounced around clubs and now given the circumstances with Benteke he got his chance at being up top.

Ok? That doesn’t mean we should view success in such a arbitrary way that’s simplistic. To say the team regressed under him cause they didn’t win a treble or didn’t win the CL both of which are special accomplishments is ridiculous when they achieved great things still under him

It's facts tho. Stop denying them cause he ran to your club with his tail between his legs.
