fazzyfox Posted 5 November 2016 Share Posted 5 November 2016 Just a few minutes into Chelsea v Everton and Howard Webb has had to agree that Bobby Madley is in the wrong. How did he get a game this weekend after last week? I would be even more angry but the foul was on Costa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 5 November 2016 Share Posted 5 November 2016 People calling Pep a fraud still. How boring... Man City had 71% possession, 25 shots and 8 corners.... looked like they dominated. Pleased for Middlesbrough, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the whole game, they "dominated" but other than the goal didn't really create any decent chance. Deserved draw for Middlesbrough.

He still needs the likes of Iniesta, Xavi and Messi to achieve big things. Agreed, I don't get the Pep thing. The Media rave about him. Like Jose, they'll wait until the cut is open then start rubbing salt in the wound. The Premiership is not like any other league in the world..............you have to be a GREAT Team to win it.

Probably because he's won trophy after trophy? Including two Champions Leagues. Regardless of the side he managed at Barca, he's still got to win the competition.

They dominated, but so what? Doesn't mean anything when they can't score more than the other team. Man City the only team in the top 8 to have played. Chelsea will soon be top by the looks of it. Arsenal and Liverpool could go above them too. If Spurs sneak a win against Arsenal, then Man City will only be in the top 4 by 1 point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's the point. They look good, but if they don't get the results, something is clearly wrong. This isn't a case of them being unlucky. It's a case of Pep's style not being (super) effective in the Prem, even if it looks good. It's half a joke calling him a fraud by the way. He is a good manager, but he's had it easy, but he's still gotten it done. And though I'd like to see him flop in the Prem, I doubt it will happen even if he is having a bit of a rough patch.

He hasn't built a team up - so to speak - compared to Klopp, Wenger etc. But plenty of managers have inherited good sides and been labelled brilliant. Look at Mourinho 04-06 at Chelsea... Cech, Lampard, Cole (Joe Cole), Makelele, Terry etc were all signed by Ranieri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 5 November 2016 Share Posted 5 November 2016 This is a really, really intriguing league this year. It's so hard to call anything. I'm really surprised by Man City. They had most of their key players back today yet threw it away. I had a feeling they would as well. It's mental how often when you miss a sitter at 1-0 you go on to not win it. At the minute it looks like Liverpool & Chelsea are the two best sides. Arsenal do look good but they've done this far too many times for me to take them too seriously as title contenders. They're not out of it by any means but they too often look great and then throw silly games away. Sunderland winning as well has really thrown it up in the air towards the bottom. I think one of Swansea, Palace or West Brom could go this year. Hardest season to call in ages. Really intriguing stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was done a bit tongue in cheek and I've underlined the Leicester bit I was referring to As for Pep bit, he doesn't make the Top 10 Mangers but Jose does and as I said the Media are having a field day with him. I haven't liked Man City since 1969 so it might not be Pep but the club he manages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
