We got pellers to take us from a defensive set up and turn us into an attacking outfit that can destroy shit
I think next season will be his last before pep comes in and completes the job.
Or someone else, we can gaurantee it won't be that cunt mourinho at least because he is too defensive so that's a good thing.

It'll be very interesting what happens to Guardiola over the next season. He's getting a good old kicking from some Bayern icons and I could see a parting of the ways before too long; Bayern definitely have a culture of getting rid of managers who they don't believe fit their historical frame of reference and at the moment he's not always doing that.

If we get Pep and he tries the slow tempo, possession is everything shit here, then we will never win the league under him.

He was a civil engineer what's more to say. Great profession. Got to love the man. My love the fact that everything about him is low key.

There is an article in Voz Populi today about Pep and City and that the job is his as and when. Its more a magazine article rather than idol gossip. Voz Populi is quite respected in Spain for its articles. I doubt Pep could walk into the job now but I sense his next move might be us. I always thought it might be Vieira. Anyway it seems a bit odd discussing this when we are on the verge of a title but I go back to my point that, to me, Pellers feels like a stop gap...albeit a bloody good one.

This season has been so much better than last. Great football, reasonable showing in Europe, a trophy and with two games to go in the driving seat for the title. Last season the FA cup run masked plenty, the title and Europe were over by the turn of the year, and hardly a thrilling display all season long.
Very satisfied with Hells Pells. Mildly surprised by anybody who isn't.

It's all about opinions Piccs which is fine, but struggling to see why 11 peeps are dissatisfied or highly dissatisfied. I don't know, maybe their PC's don't work anymore?

Pep would be here now if Mancini hadn't won the title imo. It was impossible to sack him after that.
If Pellegrini wins the double, it will be impossible to sack him.
Very bad timing if Pep loses the Bayern job.

I'd welcome Pellegrini's football over Guardiola's. He may have broken records in the Bundesliga already but Bayern Munich aren't enjoyable to watch in comparison. I just feel Pep Guardiola has always walked in to a good set up and hasn't had to build a team himself. Silva and Yaya will need replacing one day.

That could be anything, people getting the hump when we fuck up against Cardiff or Villa, our Bosnian contingent getting the hump because Dzeko is dropped for a few games, or people just being pissed,

pretty happy.
ive held back judgment until the season concluded.
did magnificently. didnt really get drawn into mind game with other managers (Mourinho). put confidence in Garcia and Demichelis.
seems to have rejuvenated Nasri and Kolarov and Dzeko.
won the double in his first season in a new league with a new style in a new country. never lost his calm nor panicked.
maybe got a few things wrong (Barca in CL) but got virtually everything else right.
I'm not really a City fan. I'm just here for attention.

Didn't win in Europe BUT earned the second highest group point total in a group containing Bayern - only Real Madrid got more points (16 to our 15). True progress in Europe, and a domestic double - all without the so called mind games, trumpet blowing and self promotion of other managers.

Well I was going to change my vote from highly dissatisfied to dissatisfied, but the app won't let me change my vote.
Anyway, two trophies and I'm willing to move him up one grade. But I'm still dissatisfied that he didn't get the scoring record off Chelsea, so must do better next season

Harsh but possibly true.
We need to buy some more forwards in the summer and forget all these 'airy-fairy' ideas about getting any defenders in.
It's forwards that win matches.

Or we could get Chelsea's physio to encourage Aguero to stay on the pitch

time for some knee jerking
im starting to wonder if last season's success was massively influenced by Toure's wonder-season rather than Pellegrini's tactics, man management, etc. did Toure's form overshadow cracks that are starting to show now that Toure is underperforming?
Pellegrini's stubbornness really is becoming a nuisance.
