So if he can choose any player he wants in the world, why is Messi, Neymar Ronaldo, Ramos etc not playing in Man City

How many of the top 10 players in the world are playing in Man city

The current FIFpro how many are in Man City

Maradona didn't mean it the way you are interpreting it, Madrid and barca is the habitat of the top players and it isn't easy to price out their top players.
Also, Ronaldo, Ramos are not for the future..
That the city boys didn't do well(Argentina's agueo) for their national teams at the mundial may have contributed from their exclusion from the FIFpro, many won't rate Pavard ahead of Walker nor would they say Alves ahead of Mendy.

Pep is good manager for sure but not as some of you blow him to be.

BlueRayDick:


Don't mind all these people. Maradona talk something, dem no even reason am dem dey carry am all about like Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Pep didn't buy messi, roanaldo, neymar, modric, bisquets, Marcelo, Kronos etc that are regarded the best in the world in their respective positions ó, he's working with Sane that couldn't make it into Germany's world cup team, Walker that has Cavarjal way ahead of him in ranking, Gundogan that mostly doesn't start for Germany, Mendy that can't lace Marcelo's boots etc and he was able to do everybody take.....yet dem still dey yarn okapata

baba you think its easy to sign top players out of Madrid and barca? and what made you think these pep boys won't walk straight into barca and Madrid's team? Mercelo and carvajal are all attack zero defensive quality, why are they not doing it at national stage?

Most of those lads benefit from playing alongside one or two exceptional players In their teams.
Aside Madrid and barca, which other team in Europe has a better squad than man city?

Mendy didnt even play for almost the entire last season and he was a bench warmer for France behind Hernandez. So this is the great player Guardiola bought?

Or who are the top players Guardiola has been picking form his Man City? Guardiola wanted Alexis, wanted Fred, wanted VVD, wanted Bonnuci So why are they not in City?
Danilo, Mendy, Stones, Walker, Laporte, Bravo Sane, Gundogan Mahrez Bernardo these are the players Guardiola bought

How many of these will you name world top 20 ?

The team Guardiola won the EPL with last season breaking all points


Ederson Walker Stones Otamendi Delph Fernandinho KDB Silva Sterling Sane Aguero Jesuus

These are the so called stars and best player Guardiola has.
Anyone who read that will think Guardiola had prime Messi Xavi, Ronaldo, Neymar Iniesta etc at City
Now lets evaluate this claim

1. Which of these players have ever won a CL before? None
2. Which of these players have as much as played a CL final before? None
3. Which of these players have ever won a world cup before None
4. Which of these have ever won either a Copa America or a Euro before? Only D. Silva
5. Which of these have ever won Balon dor before? None
6. Which of these have ever made Balon Dor top 10 before? None
7. Which of these players have ever made a FIFPro first 11 before? None

8. Of those that have been in the league for more than a year Which of these have ever won PFA player of the year before? None

If we look at these starting 11 properly only about half of them have more than 35 caps for their country
Half of these players are less than 25yrs

So these are the same players that are the stars and best players that Guardiola is picking?

How did City become a better squad? Before Guardiola did you rate Sane Sterling Stones, Jesus, Bernardo, Laporte Danilo, Ederson Walker as the best in Europe?

Guardiola worked on them suddenly they became the better squad.

I didn't rate them as the best in Europe then nor now,but anyone who can spot talent would know they are the next big thing in few years time, pep was smart and lucky(money) to get them and here they are.pep worked but the boys had it in them and any top manager would have make them to or close to this present level.

Mendy was the next big thing in Europe from Monaco that year before his injury..
The answer to the questions raised are players from the big guns in Europe mostly from Madrid and barca and they can't be priced out easily.
He was able to recruit top talents, they don't have to be from barca or Bayern.
How many teams apart from Madrid and barca can get walker, Mendy, Danilo,Stones,Mahrez,Silva for 50ms in 2 seasons? These guys didn't cost little, they were top quality players regardless of whether they have been in top10 or not.

Was Sane better than Martial or Rashford 2yrs ago? I remember 2 seasons ago when some posters here used to laugh at Sane and Sterling even calling Sane one weak albino that cannot work in the strong EPL
Was Stones better than Bailly 2yrs ago. Was Stones not one of those players people mocked here?
Who were these stars that Guardiola bought, he bought many players under 23yrs groomed them and turned them into a potent force

Other managers too had money yet they didnt set up a top team like City

Sterling won the league under Pele before pep,he was close to winning it under Rodgers, Sterling, though not consistent wasn't a big fish in England, far ahead of martial and rashford.
Sane,I will agree looks like a Pep's work,though I fear could be a season wonder.
Stones was always on the media's headline, Chelsea wanted him,but pep was faster(money).
He may have improved them, but they weren't a guendozi(unknown) but a nicklas pepe or bailey.

No other clubs had money like pep.

But Guardiola did not use Mendy to break all records in the league last season. How many of those players he bought do you consider top talents when he bought them was it Danilo, Ederson Sane Gundogan Bernardo? The only player I can call a top star before City was Mahrez

Sterling won his first league last season with Guardiola. Sane had about 40 first team appearance for Schalke before joining City
Danilo was a benchwarmer at Madrid, Stones was in the headline but usually laughed at as being error prone
At best you can say they were promising youngsters it was Guardiola who molded them into the stars they are currently

PSG spent 400M on Mbappe and Neymar alone, Chelsea since Pep joined City has spent 530M on transfers last season Chelsea spent 260M and finished 5th. Currently Liverpool has the most expensive midfielder-keita, Defender VVD and Keeper in the entire league

Sane was never Guardiola's doing... he was a wonderkid at Schalke... (watch Sane vs Real Madrid)... Stones was boss art Everton... Guardiola is always a fraud... why didn't he lift the Champions League with Bayern Munich and watch raudmetre claw back in his cave....

Sane had 13 goals for Schalke is that the wonder kid we are talking about? How many National caps did he have while at Schalke. Stone was boss where? No be the same Stones

This was the same poster calling Walker and Stones rubbish but today he is telling us the same Stones he called rubbish was a boss at Everton, You mean the boss or rubbish

iPopAlomo:
Let's put this into perspective:
Hector Bellerin and Rob Holding: £1.5M
Kyle Walker and John Stones: £105M
I know which I'd prefer...

Nobody put a gun to his head to sign rubbish... but as usual... Eruditor and radeuter will lick his ass...

Fkhalifa these are examples of the same poster who laughed at Guardiola signings when he refined them suddenly they are telling us they are world class signings

iPopAlomo:




Man City signings this summer:
Danilo (£26.5m)
Kyle Walker (£50m)
Douglas Luiz (£10.7m)
Ederson (£35m)
Bernardo Silva (£43m)
Total: £165.2m


And he won't lift the premiership or the Champions League in England...

Fkhalifa you dey see am

Come on... match way I no watch... I never even see the highlight... I've always reiterated before Pep join EPL... that he'll never lift the cup... so far so good... he's proving me right...

Someone who claimed Ederson is not better than Joe Hart

Exactly what I said, I remembered sky sport reporting the transfer of sane to city,he wasn't so unknown, he was like sancho of dortmund,maybe pep did more on him, but huge some of money could have made schalke sold him that year.

After the Southampton game that Stones made a mistake, even the British media turned on him. It was Pep who came out first to say as long as he remains City manager, Stones will be a huge factor to it. Next, he approached the same Stones and encouraged him to continue passing it out the back the very same way.

Today, Pep did nothing.

You are not supposed to be responding to any posts. You are the one who has confirmed yourself a fraud. Stick to one narrative. If Pep won in Bayern you will still say he did nothing because Bayern won it before he came. You people are incorrigible.

I would not have agreed with him that they were rubbish, walker was arguably the best RB in England, Stones was quoted around 50M when Chelsea were sniffing around him..

Sky will report any transfer. So reporting a transfer means nothing. You guys puzzle me.

What is "he was not SO unknown"?

The Sané you see today is that the Sané of Schalke? The same free scoring decisive Sterling of today is that the one we have always known?

Sane scored an entire 13 goals in his Schalke career, Bayern actually viewed Sane as too young and too raw far from the finished product and decided not to sign him. Guardiola signed him and suddenly we are hearing Sane was already a star

All these one are revisionism. Those posts I quoted were the average reactions to those signing. Its only after they succeed that people are now twisting to say they were good players

Ipopalomo actually laughed at Walker and Stones, Walker was benched at his latter time at Spurs. Stones was the butt of jokes and he felt Bellerin and Holding were better but now we are hearing something different

I meant the way his transfer was reported.He was thoroughly analysed and he wasn't like an unknown kid,but like a Sancho.
I'm not disputing pep didn't work on him, but he had it in him.
