Pep Guardiola

In an interview with Rai

Guardiola to Rai Sport: "I'm fine here but my time at Barça is ending"

Guardiola to Rai Sport: "I'll stay one more year and it'll be my fourth. You have to understand when it's time to go".

Guardiola to Rai Sport: "You need to be brave. Players and journalists get tired of the manager after a few years"



Asked would he ever manage in Italy-it depends if I still have the desire

 

will a mod fix Pep's name please, (Pepe on the brain)

 

id be amazed if he walked out on that team

 

om nom nom

 

I wouldnt tbh, think he only signs yearly anyway, dont think he likes the politics of the powers that be

 

Id imagine its so easy, that he's now getting bored, he's not like Maureen a buying success greedy bsatard,. He wants a challenge and wants to win in style, managing Barca is no challenge, and neither is winning things with them,.

 

cheers Lionel

 

Bresica could be a option for him id imagine for a challenge having played there and still having feelings for the club, that would be if he was looking for a challenge.

 

ahemmmmmm -hows about us in a year or 2 !???

 

Hold on now, the King is here for at least 2 years, and when he decides to step down, then Rafa has first refusal,.

 

id have roy back first just needs some more expierence

 

oh, go on so
shur i hope it can work out for KK & he's here as long as whiskey nose, but if not, have Pep's number handy

 

I would like to see him take another job so we can see if he really is a top manager coz most of that team was there before he got there and not being funny but i think anyone can manage that team they are that good.

 

Rafa back!!! Oh its April fools day!

 

If the media and a lot of our fans went spare about Rafa wasting money then I'd fear for Pep if he took us over:

Ibrahimovic-£45m + Samuel Eto'o
Caceres-£15m
Hleb-£14m
Henrique-£6m
Keita-£11m
Chygrynskiy-£22m
Mascherano-£22m

After 6 transfer windows with Barca,only Villa and Dani Alves have been top signings for them and both were big bucks and were already established top internationals when signed.Pique's really the only one I can think of who was a bargain and came on leaps and bounds under him.





*I rate Guardiola-think he's a good fella and a top coach who plays the game in the right way.People will quite rightly say it doesn't matter because he's been phenomenally successful with them.All I'm saying is we don't have the likes of Messi,Puyol,Xavi and Iniesta already in our team.If he took over in the morning I wouldn't fancy giving Guardiola £100m to give our first team the investment it needs.

 

The club owners/boards over there have a lot more say over whos bought compared to here. I think thats why he will leave , he doesnt like the interference

 

Some great points there, I like him but wow that's some serious money on players that haven't added much at all.

 

Sweet child of mine!!!! please don't turn a thread on Pep Guardiola into ANOTHER pro/anti Rafa thread. It's getting really old

 

The thread hasn't come anywhere remotely close to descending into a pro/anti Rafa thread,nor was it ever intended to.

 

Agree very very tired of that s--t
