@ lala see what I got from espn....

Pep Guardiola is a fraud. Bayern would be mad to give him a third season. That's two years in a row that his team get their rear ends handed to them in the semifinal, 3-10 on aggregate, are you kidding me?

Who cares if he won the Bundesliga? It's kinda hard not to win the Bundesliga, to be honest, when you manage Bayern. Every single guy who has managed the club in the past 19 years has won the title, except for Jurgen Klinsmann. This is a league where the second-place club is freaking Wolfsburg, a team with Bas Dost and Nicklas Bendtner sharing time up front.

It's a one-team league, especially now that Borussia Dortmund have imploded, and the only team is the one Pep is lucky enough to coach.

And guess what? It's getting worse. Bayern won the Treble before Pep's arrival. In his first season, they got the Double. This year it's just that measly German championship. Next season? Logical progression suggests it will be a big fat zero if they stick with Pep and his nonsense.

High line? Pressing? Weirdo formations with a jockey-sized fullback like Rafinha at center-half? Come on now. How about working on some defending so two otherwise fine centre-backs like Jerome Boateng and Mehdi Benatia aren't made to look like statues frozen in time?

Don't be fooled by this guy. Sure, Pep won some domestic and European silverware at Barcelona, but that was because he inherited a great team. After all, Frank Rijkaard won plenty at Barca as well, with some of the same players. What happened to him? His last gig was managing Saudi Arabia, who sacked him in 2013.

Ultimately, Pep is exposed because, simply put, he can beat up bad teams but struggles against good ones. Want proof? Witness his record against the teams currently in second to sixth place right now in the Bundesliga: Wolfsburg, Borussia Monchengladbach, Bayer Leverkusen, Augsburg and Schalke. Played 10, won 3, drew 3, lost 4, scored 10, conceded 12. A losing record.

Enough of the hype. Enough of the outdated tiki-taka. This emperor has no clothes.

That's fine. Defeat has consequences and they range from criticism to a boot to the backside.

Except once the air clears, you need to take a step back and ask yourself on what basis you should judge a manager.

The cliché that "results are everything" is downright foolish. Results, particularly in a low-scoring game such as football, are a function of many things, including chance and probability. This is especially true in knockout competitions

Chelseafan1:
Wherever he likes, he can go, that's the least of my worries as a Chelsea fan, he is a god? no.

lalaboi:
You see, this is the part i dont like about arguing with you and Dayo. You conveniently mention i said they won 8 straight games from the get go for a record.

I also mentioned they won the league in record time in April. .

I also mentioned that they won it with 25points from the closest rival.

Lets just say pep was announced by end of January. . . As at that time, they were 12points ahead. you mean to tell me that they were not considered favorites to win the league and cup.? They never thought to themselves that they were in good form to maybe get a treble. A team in such a good form is to be written off as 'potential' winners of a treble?

go to bed A40.

bigkesh:
First of all,I don't insult CFC fans even if its the Fan1 in stupidity...... But you are crossing a line ......
Mata,Schrulle,Luiz and Cech.....all justified sales
Mata for 39, Schrulle isn't even on Spurs level,can't make Wolfsburg XI,Luiz for 50m?? Go reject am na,Cech? Good decision for me,even though Cech is currently better....
U are shouting about KDB,Mata and co,if he had Sold Courtois who is far better than the sold names,this same moniker would still wail about it.....
When did Mourinho take Credit for the league? Stop yarning dust,you saying loads of rubbish at the same time,Your phone no dey crash?
Give me 2 interviews to suggest he did such
Mourinho supported every player from October till last week,Everyone of them....Tell me one that he blamed,15 players came out to take responsibility for our poor season and excuse the boss yet jimmy jimmy thinks Mourinho criticized them
Maybe you think the players are mentally weak people like you for a beef that has nothing to do with them affect them in the long run....
So your Teacher's beef affects or stop you from passing?
We trashed Arsenal 6-0 weeks after the specialist in failure remark, y didn't it affect?
Ferguson had a beef with Benitez for over 6 years why didn't it affect?
I don't know why hazard will stop scoring because Mourinho has a beef with someone in the opposing team....Mumu
If you say Eva's whatever affected them? No p....But Wenger and Referees??
Just stick to supporting barca,we have enough problems to deal with than adding 2 faced plastic jerk with multiple holes for Hazard's dick.....
Finally.....I don't work for my Boss, M trained to save lives same way footballers are paid to win....
Winning should be their aim,the same way saving lives is mine.....
If a boss takes Glory,he can't take it all...The fans aren't blind same way my patients aren't....
Jose name is not on the list for the highest assist last seaon
Jose wasn't named the 6th best in Europe
Jose didn't collect Hazard or Fabregas' medal
Jose didn't steal their wages
To top it all,he stayed loyal to them because of last season heroics...That's a payback
Or you think Hazard's performance will make Watford XI? Talkless of Chelsea.....
He made all Chelsea players at the dinner rise on their feet before naming hazard our player of the year
He was the one who said EPL XI should be all CFC,he didn't say all Jose
He was the one who said he would win the UCL with 11 Azpi,not 11 Jose.....
He never for once took the glory....So next time you wanna analyze soccer,Jog from Oau gate to the library 3x and let blood flow through your brain ,maybe then you can finally make sense

Eruditor:
The Illogic wey fill this post dey weak me. I don't wanna derail it too much, only chipped in a little to correct some false statements.

Lyon is one of the best teams in Ligue un history but they are not the best team today. PSG is. Same with United and LFC, but today, common sense says we either call the "official best" or the current best. It is simple and in that case either Chelsea or Leicester will do fine. Doesn't mean City may not go on to win the EPL.

CR7 is the best player in the world until FIFA announce Messi as the best. Or Neymar is the best player in the world currently. I will be amiss to say Pelé or Maradona is the best. Hope you understand.

So in the same vein, Bayern wasn't the best team in the league 2 years before Pep came. And that statement that Bayern would've done the treble is even more false than all your previous statements. Remind me of the season when RM went on a run of 22wins and everyone thought they would do a treble? Yea...Barca ended up doing that treble. That's football.

lalaboi:
Na you smoke the Igbo.
That season, they broke records by being the first team in bundesliga to win the first 8matches of the season. Did they win their first 8 games the previous season? They won the league in record time as at that time in April. A team high in form and confidence, Are you saying they could not have won the the double at least or Treble for that matter after beasting the whole of Germany?

lalaboi:
Bayern even won the league that year (Before Pep) with about 25point. . .
As at when Pep was named, runnersup Dortmund was 12points behind.
If not that Jupp was retiring, there is nothing to suggest that they wouldnt have done a Treble that year

oralle:
Dont mind them joor.. Folks that knows nothing about Chelsea pre Mou's era

Eruditor:
The emboldened are lies from the pit of hell.

Barca finished 2nd and 3rd in the seasons before Pep.
Bayern finished 2nd and 2nd before it was announced that Pep will take the job. Jupp only overachieved before he left. If Jupp had had that level of success before 2013, Bayern won't have hired Pep.
City are not the best team in the EPL. Either Chelsea or right now (Leicester). Any other thing is a feeble attempt at pseudo-intellectualism.

Chelseafan1:
Ogbeni...if u do not understand me, do not quote me again, u are obviously here to compare both managers which is not what I'm on about, why did Guardiola chose Barca and Bayern, why didn't he chose Dortmund or Atletico or Bayer Leverkusen, now that he wants to come to England, why is he going to Citee, let him choose a team like Spurs or even Arsenal and turn them to a consistent title winning team.

Barca has always been one of the best 2 in Spain.

Bayern has always been the best in Germany, no other Buli team comes close.

Man city is like the best in England right now with a very good spending power.

Raineri, who could go to a championship team Leicester without so much spending power and could manage to stay top of the table for over 5 months should be hailed and respected than both Mou and Pep put together.

oralle:
You are just cheap and crap talking.

Ranieri did most of the job at chelsea before Mou took over. He signed Joe cole, Lampard, Makelele.. He was gonna sign Petr cech, Drogba. He secured UCL footie for as second placed on the log before Abramovic took over the club.

Pep didn't expect to take the A team. Pep is catalan. He played there. He was the B's coach before taking over, his appointment was a risk cos he had nothing on his cv hence the two years contract that was awarded to him. He chose Baryern before they won anything that year, he already made it clear he was going move there. Where did he tell you he is going to City?

Btw, i didn't come to compare managers i made the earlier comments based on what u wrote that pep likes it easy. Meaning Mou likes it hard, aint it?

bigkesh:
Arsenal that just did the invincibles were rebuilding
Man u the main rival were rebuilding?

Mou had almost 6 seasons. Ancellotti had just 2.

Hazard 14/15 was the 2nd best player in the world.....shoot yourself

1.I've already explained ad nauseum why I felt parking the bus and playing on the counter was the best way to go...a 0-0 would have been great from our point of view as well. I don't know if it's the same in Germany, but here in England, 1 point is better than no points

2.Chelsea has more big names on their teamsheet...at this point the levels of talent is debatable. This is the exact same thinking that Mourinho warned about when he said this:

"I don't think in this moment the players can feel they are top players. Or they are superstars. In this moment they have to be humble, they have to look to Leicester boys and feel these are the stars, these are the top players. They have to look to them and be humble. They have to look to Sundelrand next weekend, and to Watford in two weeks' time and say, 'Hey we are at the same level as you are, I am not the superstar, not the player of season, not the world champion, not the Premier League champion. In this moment I am at your level."

I-get-am-before no be trophy. Right now we have a multiple league, UCL, European and World Champion in Pedro...who is playing worse than his junior at Barca in Deulofeu. Diego Costa is a Multiple league winner and UCL finalist, with chart topping experience in goalscoring....cant even compete with Odion Ighalo from Ajegunle. PFA player of the year and onetime projected WPOTY in Hazard has been blown out the water by Riyad Mahrez

I be king before mentality is definitely not needed from those players....and that's why I advocated a more pragmatic approach vs the current League Toppers.

Timbuktou:
Lol. Make she ask her questions explicitly if she wants detailed answers na. She was being measured in her questioning and I followed same tack in answering. I know why she didn't push, but I'll respect that and not rat her out.


The invites are ok, and it's not like it's a rigid system where we actually have the power to stop any woman who so desires from commenting. They can politely ask if they can ask a question like many sensible have done in the past and progeess made. That almost eliminates participation from trolls and loons; if youre invited or request for an invite you're more likely to respect yourself. How many women do you see in real life interjecting when men are doing their thing? Also, even when not invited, a good post is a good post and will most certainly not be ignored.

Moreover, there was a period when only men commented and this thread was just fine. We dont need them to have a vibrant discussion, they tend to just come and bleed all over the thread. What we really need is a vibrant, logical (con)testing of ideas, which A40 has provided.

Kimoni:
The father definitely has a role to play but remember my discussion was based on a scenario where "Dangote" is the husband and the wife is an undergraduate/fresh graduate or so. Hence, he is the busy breadwinner with very little time to spare for the family while the wife is more hands on, sacrificing her life raising his children and providing stability for him and the kids.

I cant outrightly call every case where the wife demands 50% greedy, the peculiarities of each case would differ and each would be judged differently.

On Tiger's case - can I ever judge that case objectively considering Tiger's escapades? I don't think so.

With Serena - if you as a man has sacrificed all to keep the home front going while she concentrated on amassing trophies and earning money, why not?

Nihilist:
Jose na mumu....If he truly studied Leicester as he claims, he should have ceded possession to them, parked the bus and played on the counter.

Leceister have one the lowest Pass-to-shot ratios in the league and have averaged 44% ball possession in the league.

They dont pass the ball around, they sit deep, press once the ball gets to midfield and then counter at pace.

Last night we had 65% possession...that played right into the foxes hands!

This was Jose in June...

This dude is looking so clueless now, he can't even take his own advice...
