Reports suggesting Pep is off at the end of the season and leaving the 115ers.
Iraola or Silva to the Emptyhad! :slap:
115ers, I get it... ::wink::
Bye, Marco.
Peps High Regard for Silva's Tactics
Guardiola has frequently expressed his admiration for how organized and technically proficient Silva's Fulham side. He routinely highlights the following aspects of Silva's management:
Exceptional Organization: Guardiola has noted that it is incredibly difficult for any opponent to break down Silva's teams.
Positional Play: He praises the fluid, positional passing movements, noting that "every year... with the ball they're even better"
.Longevity and Consistency: The Manchester City boss has frequently credited the stability Silva has brought to Fulham over his multiple years at the club.

Man City certainly don't seem to have much trouble breaking us down
I hope he takes his spittoon with him.

I'm not surprised Pep praises us at every opportunity - he must rub his hands with glee before every match against Fulham, in anticipation of an easy 3 points (17 straight defeats against them since 2012, a record !) ::cry::

Yes, disgusting man.
OK so let's get him!
Wonder if he's leaving early because he doesn't want to be there when they get hit with the punishment for the 115 charges??
Maresca has agreed 3 year deal to take over from Pep.
Obviously had heard that the Fulham job is up for grabs :slap:

Weird appointment, imo. I get why they made it, with his history with Man City, but I thought that they'd get a bigger name once Guardiola leaves and perhaps more importantly, a more proven manager.

I'd like to believe it's because he has experience of getting a team promoted from the Championship...
::scarf:: Guardiola to Fulham ??
Nice ...
Let's see how good a Manager he is without 20 world beaters in his squad ...
Fulham will prove a bit of a leveler... ::wine::

Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, is a Big name.
When I asked my grandson who should replace Silva his instant response was Pep and this is before he knew of his departure. Out of the mouths of babes ??

He can have a spitting contest with that other scumbag, Carragher.
Quote from: St Eve on May 19, 2026, 02:16:21 AMOK so let's get him!
He's no use without a cheque book.

ian you and me both on the same page mate .
115 manager, blank chequebook and cheated way to trophies.
Oil money bought his success...
He's an amazing manager, and quite a character, but I find man city so boring and am glad this era is over.
Has he actually said he is going?
