We are not going to keep all the lieutenants happy. Arteta at City, Vierra at NYC and Machin at Girona are all potential replacements when Pep steps aside.

I guess those closest to him will attract the most attention but maybe Arteta fits the bill at Arsenal if they are just looking for a coach. I wouldn't think he has enough management experience yet.

Read that Vierra wasnt too impressed with the half arsed attempt Arsenal made to contact him about the job.

If either leaves I hope City look to Pab Zab as a replacement.

I hope he goes!! They'll fall apart trying to play the Pep way because Arteta has worked with him for a season.

Here's a thought: Arteta to Arse, Kompany as player/coach for a season then fulltime coach when he feels like it (probably the following season).

He broke records with us as well Mr C!..Im glad hes back in the Prem. West ham were better supported than we were this season..record crowds watching their team play , more often than not , shite football.

Hes gone to a very well supported club who has finances to battle the top 4 IMO.

with the count at the helm, there’s a good chance joe could end up there permanently...
would also be happy to see him put in charge of a couple of our youngsters - diaz and tosin?

Depends what they expect of him - I could see him finishing top ten which would be a success in my opinion. One thing you can bet on, is that they'll play attacking football. (and maybe that's ALL they want)

Great move for them.
Good luck to Pellers. Under him we played some of the best football I saw as a City fan.

Same. He’s an experienced head who has had success with teams not competing with the biggest wage bills as well as managing superstars so it’s a no brainer for me. They won’t get relegated and they’ll play more attractive football. In the short term that’s about the best they can wish for until some stuff really changes there.
Tracking back is overrated.

I guess things are different at the matches. Pellers did well. But he inherited a good base from Bob and some of the football, without a plan B, under Pel was awful!!
