I’d imagine players are sick and tired of him and his rants.

Can't be too much doubt about it, can there? I am at a loss what else can explain the total lack of effort that has been made this season.

Yes he has. There’s players there that won the league a few months ago and now they’re going off at the slightest knock. Whatever’s happened they don’t want to play for him anymore, that’s clear.

Yes, I reckon most of these players will make a quick recovery if a new manager was to replace Pep. I also think they don't want to play the same old tactics week in week out.

One player that will fuck us off soon is Haaland. It’s almost as if Pep purposely isn’t playing to his strengths. It’s a complete waste.

Yes . I think there was a bust up when he had all them scratches on his head and on his nose with his arrogant attitude I am not surprised . Thank you Pep for the good times but Go now please .

It’s getting harder to argue against it. The drop off off in effort and desire from many of them is shameful to see. Getting constantly played around in the middle of the pitch yet we don’t try putting any of the young lads in. You do wonder how many of them would have played with these knocks previous seasons when in a run in trying to get a title.

Yes, he did.
The real question is why?

The only thing that comes into my mind is that he kept them from leaving. And if that is the case, then we have on our hands a bunch of cowards. And they need to be exposed.
However, his methods might also be a reason. He has become very predictable and one sided, so there might be a frustration here, a terrible big one.

I don't see a way out except for him going. And I don't want that.
He either needs to adapt or then he will be really gone.

This 100%
Very worrying for someone who has his wages.

He needs to fucking call Sacchi like he did a few years ago and have a chat.

Lost the dressing room a few weeks ago. One by one he has pissed off or had disagreements with his players. You can see it when he pulls them to oneside after a game. Most of the old hands realise they will not win much more and they have got a great collection of medals, so now his words are falling on deaf ears, - they don't give a shit. He's stopped trying to bring kids on, our academy is simply a machine to produce potential for others to exploit. McAtee was lauded as the best at playing between the lines, hardly used, Foden markedly got worse. KdB seems perpetually in disagreement , Haaland not a happy bunny, Gvardiol superb player now made in a scapegoat. Silva, Nunes, Ederson , Ortega. the list is fucking endless. Can't think of anyone that is happy at our club and it started at the beginning of the season, because what we have won, it's been scrappy, lucky or a get out of jail card played. Any other club, the manager would be been shown the door

Yes....and his marbles !!

I have a problem with Khaldoon and the Spafia also, to be honest.
They need to remind these players who pay their wages and who was never been late a day, no matter if there was a pandemic or other shit.

The players and Pep have the same blame equaly.

I’ve said it before, it’s the same players that won the league. They just don’t give a fuck. They’re calling sick at any opportunity and I think they’re hoping he gets the can.

Can’t stand any of these cunts. Overpaid dick heads

No. He has not.
Bad patch.
Moon eclipse wrong.
Munich Bastard sore
We will provail.
Blizzard after blizzard.
Famine after famine.

I can understand why you’re saying this but these players won the treble 18 months ago, the squad has been refreshed with Doku, Savinho, Nunes and Gundog……under normal circumstances three or four good players would keep us ticking over, but alas these players are not good, even saying they have potential to be good is wearing thin, they’ve had plenty of opportunities and not taken them. What are our expectations now, buying players to have one great season in five ? I get a very strong impression that our reign is at an end and a rebuild including the purchase of some great players. The question is….is Pep the man to do it….will he be capable after this calamity season ? Worrying times.

How many players has he turned into shit or pissed them off by playing them where they don't excel in ?
I can count 10 players at a minimum who play / played shit and some have fucked off to pastures new...all this fuckign bullshit how he improves all the players is a total fuckign myth.

Hes 100% lost the dressing room.

What really fucks me off is the Grealish position, its obvious to even people like Carsley that his most effective position is inside forward, he played well for England & one game for City in that position, yet, the fucking "genius " put him back on the wing where he would cause less damage to the opposition. Fucking furious with Pep atm

He might have lost the dressing room, something isn't right but what's not a myth is everything in the last 7 years. Multiple 1sts in football. Trouble is people would rather talk 10 weeks as opposed to 7 years.
There might be people on here want him gone, I've not heard one person at the games who are calling for him to go. I guarantee that any new manager coming in will have you slagging them off the 1st game they don't win.

All behaving like Gen-Zs Stu Some are ingrates. Calling for the most successful manager at City to be chopped.

Clearly it is not what we like. However now support is needed.
