Fern signs for another season

[zuricity]

Good to see he is staying another year. He should get his badges and work under Pep afterwards - with a bit of work as understudy , he'd be a great choice to take over after Pep decides to call it a day.

What a year this has been, my dear friends!?

It has certainly a worldwind of emotions throughout this season. The intensity of it all has been rather absurd.

Firstly, I would like to say thank you to all our fans for your ongoing support. I can only imagine the anxiety this may have caused watching all the matches on the TV at home, but this is all over now. We have been fortunate enough to have some of our supporters back in the stadium.

It was a pleasure and it gave me great happiness to see you all in the stands and I sincerely hope that soon enough all of you can join us at the Ethiad Stadium once again.
Your role is crucial and of great importance for our team to progress further and to win many more titles.

I would also like to say thank you to all of Manchester City's backroom staff. Since August last year when we returned to work up until last Saturday you were Phenomenal...
You have worked extremely hard in various areas and understood the importance of being approachable, being there for a bigger purpose, based on dedication, effort, commitment, discipline, responsibility above and beyond any personal or selfish acts.
It is a pleasure to work with every single one of you in sunny or rainy days or even when snowing in our beautiful city, Manchester.
Please be proud of your work during this year as I'm surely proud of what you've done to date.

To my team mates, many thanks!
What great players we have and what wonderful human beings you are.
Your commitment, what I felt and heard during this whole year was simply amazing. Each training session, each talk, each speech, it was great to witness.

I'm thankful to God for the opportunity given to work and share these beautiful, emotional moments with all of you.

Does this sound like a goodbye?

That sentence highlighted would say to the contrary & that he will be here next season in one capacity or another

Yes
Shame he didn’t play from the start against Chelsea - he must have been GUTTED.

I fucking was.

I notice he doesn't mention Pep . . . .

[Outcast]

I can see him becoming a good manager, very intelligent and great leadership qualities on and off the pitch.

Good.
But I bet some players are angered with Peps Champions league final efforts.
Hope it doesn't affect us next season.

[stupot]

I bet some players were angered after the Lyon game.
Didn't affect us too badly this season.

We were shite at the start of this season. May have taken the players a while to get over?

They probably thought he couldn't possibly FUCK IT UP AGAIN in the CL.............

**oh wait a minute**

Hang on though, we didn't start well did we. And then Pep signed his extension.
Oh wait a minute.

We were- until the manager said he was staying.

Good point, but how many straws does it take to break the camels back?

So you’re saying the players were playing crap on purpose because of the uncertainty of Pep’s future?

Not saying that at all, I was answering the point that they couldn't have been too angered with the manager if they went on a mega run as soon as he signed.

[Mase]

You’re not giving our players enough credit if you think they weren’t angry about Pep regarding Lyon. One of the players partners literally came out at the time and said as much.

I literally said in my post that some players would have been angry.
I was answering the point that it didn't affect the season as we won the league by a mile.
