This makes no sense. Is Allegri going to City then? Havent heard any big name coach going there after Pep. They signed half of Barca ex coaching team precisely for Pep.
What has Pep done in Europe since leaving Barca? Nothing. Just to put that in context, Mourinho won in Europe just a year before Pep won with Barca last.
(I'd prefer Pep over the others as well, but he offers no guarantee on us succeeding in Europe.)
Edit: Just realised that Mourinho has technically won in Europe since then as well
Yeah. Spend a premium on Pep and his ideas just to end up winning just as much as what Max would have won, but for much less money. Pep has done nothing worth talking about (especially not in the CL, the main reason users want him here...) ever since leaving the Golden Generation Barca, how can you not see that?

And we have arguably one of the best teams in recent years and yet we still haven't won the cl. So if the argument is Guardiola had a stacked team, we could easily argue that this team is a couple of signings away from being one of the most complete in Europe.
Its bullshit. Basically, what happened in the press conference was that the journalist asked Agnelli whether conte was a possibility or not, and Ronaldo 'frowned' because Agnelli had said before the conference that he was not answering any questions in regard to the next coach. He simply disapproved of the question out of respect for what Agnelli had just said. Nothing serious.
the guy is a stubborn mule, tactically inflexible, never won a thing in his life,
he does the same thing every game, no matter what is happening, same subs, same line up, he doesn't know how to adjust based on opposition, he just goes out there with the same line up every week and hopes for the best. 4-3-3 with Jorginho holding
its not about 'erasing' the rest of his time you need to look at progress and to be honest we have deteriorated over the last 18 months, hard to see that improving next season
Mourinho has declined severely as a coach. And the funny thing is, you can compare the two coaches because they've always had huge budgets wherever they've gone. Pep > Mourinho

He took over the triple winning Bayern. Was a pretty decent team as well i'd say. Could he win the CL with it?
There are no guarantees, and if we were to make "a couple of signings" (an actual midfield that is) Max could have won it as well next season. That notion that Pep is somehow the key to CL success is downright laughable if you look at his stints at Bayern and City.
I dont know if the best but he tries to attack and he did a very good job with Napoli while I cant say a 3rd place finish and EL final (while being the favorite to win now as he plays Arsenal..) is a bad season..
Chelsea are below City and Liverpool while Tottenham and Man Utd are debatable in terms of players in the team - He has done the best he could actually - The first of the non contenders...
In EL he also done the best he could as Chelsea are one of the favorites to the EL and indeed he took them to the final.
Napoli - He got Napoli many pts in the league and only lost the scudetto because he has Juve in the same league.. Considering that I believe he has done a wonderful job!
Im not saying Im pro Sarri but he is one of the best of all the B options..

I completely agree with this statement. I think guardiola would do a lot better with this team, but you make some great points.
At the end of the day I want the best for the team. However to argue that coaches that have done next to nothing in Europe over someone with cl experience is laughable.

Mourinho hasnt declined.. Football has evolved while Mourinho hasnt.. Mourinho is stubborn with his ideas and not willing to change and this is why Man Utd played so badly..
Im not saying Man Utd would have won the league with a great manager but would definitely get much more credit from its players its fans and people watching at home..

Him winning nothing with Napoli is no big surprise considering this Juve team is far superior to his Napoli.Change him with Allegri and he would be as successful.
He's doing a very good job at Chelsea, finishing third behind two record breaking teams, and reaching EL final.
