Locky Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Can see Pep sticking around for one more season at City. One last crack at the Champions League. Juve is a bit risky. Very similar to the Bayern job. No real competition for domestic success so the pressure is on European results. He still romped to the Bundesliga every season at Bayern in true Pep style, but never made it past the final 4 of the CL, so in some ways he's just another Bayern manager. Jupp Heynckes is considered a better Bayern manager than he. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 13 hours ago, Bridge of Djoum said: Guardiola is undoubtedly a great manager. The one thing I'd like to see him do is not manage the wealthiest team in the league/world and see how he gets on then. Barcelona... while Madrid were not at their best. This point is arguable. Bayern... virtually guaranteed the title every year Man City...untold wealth. I'd like to see him take on a challenge. Port Vale. perhaps? Seriously though, he's treating his career like a project, wants to manage in every top league in Europe...but only if that team is in one way or another the biggest in that league. He's like the biggest on Football Manager. Take on a challenge FFS. Build something, leave a legacy. Still like him, though. Yeah, I agree. He's obviously a good manager, but if he all he wants to do is shoot fish in a barrel then he'd be as well just taking the Celtic job. I'm not trying to devalue what he's achieved because he's absolutely at the top of his game and I can't not be impressed by it, but I'd love to see him do something ambitious. Take on a project, build a legacy. Roma are getting a new stadium at some point. Turning them into winners I think would be a fantastic achievement. Winning the league for the 9th, 10th 11th time in a row with Juve isn't an achievement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be argued that the Man City job wasn't his biggest challenge either with the financial backing they have. He also took Bayern job, a club that dominate German football the way that OF dominate Scotland. He's a great manager but would be interesting to see how well he would have done at Liverpool for instance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
