Still, you don't announce a replacement until the season is over.
>>67443569
so what you fucking retard
>>67443555
4th place gets you in the qualifying stage yes. But it's usually against shite teams like Brugge so it's practically an automatic group stage entry.

Seriously. The man wins you a league title, two League Cups and takes you the furthest you've ever gone in a European competition and that's what he gets. I actually didn't mind City but it's disgusting.
>>67443670
You gotta start the planning early Roger.
Who do Liveprool fans want in the CL?
>>67443577
My sentence is fucked, with 4th place finish he'd still play last qualifying round for CL. So, Pellegrini is technically correct with his statement: if Pep fails to qualify, it's his problem.
>>67443614
You now remember Poop won his first CL straight from the qualifying stage. He beat Wisla iirc.
>>67443749
Shitnited so we can knock em out again la
>>67443730
It was Poop announcing it at a Bayern press conference. Pellegrini was talking about how he'd like to extend the contract but there are still negotiations
>>67443749
City I presume. United could make top four and potentially win the FA Cup. That's actually a successful season.
On the other hand, if they do, LVG stays.
>>67443742
city fans used to pride themselves on being good fans despite the huge influx of money (most of the fans in the stadium were actually fans before 2008 desu) but after this it's confirmed that they lost their soul. they got too used to success
another club bites the dust

>>67443749
Liverpool fan here la. I want Yawnited to go in. They have a shite squad and shite manager, so them getting top 4 over City is actually quite a good thing for >us.
>>67443590
Unless you're Everton
>>67443640
They haven't "fired" him. The just haven't renewed his contract.
Perhaps he should have done more to prove his worth in the time he was given.
I still can't fully understand why is Pep choosing City as the team to manage in England, there must be some sketchy shit going on behind the curtains that we don't know. Not just money.
>>67443678
Didn't know Utd have 1 game less, now this gives a different light to Pellegrini's statement.
>>67443793
I believe City announced it first to "end speculation".
>>67443783
Thats implying both teams even reach the CL.
>>67443965
>I still can't fully understand why is Pep choosing City as the team to manage in England
Are you a fucking mongoloid?
>>67443965
How is it sketchy? He is a fucking hack that has only built on others success and at the time city were favorites to win the league and they will spend any money he asks for
>>67443965
They've got a lot of Barcelona people in management roles. Guardiola has been their priority #1 since 2011
>>67443153

>>67444022
Don't be thick, we all know this City squad is finished.
>>67443809
I remember this long post from an actual city fan here a couple of months ago bemoaning the what the club has become and it still rings true.
>A year later, when City beat Bayern Munich away in the Champions League, I though that was pretty incredible but the last remnants of my City fan innocence died when there were so many "fans" complaining on how we should have topped the group. Given the fortunes and history of the club, it is miraculous that we were even in the Champions League to begin with, let alone escaping the group but that's what happens when bangwagoners become the vocal majority.
It's a shame. Not even a decade from the takeover and the sense of entitlement is palpable. I'm sure the fans would have been disappointed at the way they exited the CL (no fight from the players), but you would think they'd have some sort of perspective. It was a European Cup semi-final against Real Madrid. How many clubs would love to be in that position?
>>67444032
And when was that? Is Benitez a good coach because he won the CL with Liverpool 11 years ago?
>>67443965
Man City acted first.
>>67443362
>>67443437
>>67443674
>>67443742
That's their normal attendance famalam
Im just hoping Liverpool win the Europa League so they can cuck whoever comes at 4th place just to crash out at group stages.
>>67443984

Doesn't work like that, Escobar.
>>67444080

>>67444080
The rules changed, 4th place is guaranteed CL no matter what.
>>67444080
It's been 2 years since those rules have been changed and we've had La Liga enter 5 teams into the CL this season.
How the fuck do you retards still not know the qualification rules?
>>67444054

4th place gets cucked if EL and CL winners are from their league but both finished outside of top 4.
Example
4. United
5. City
6. Liverpool
Liverpool win EL, City win CL - United get cucked
>>67444090
>Like reaching a CL semifinal?
Is this considered a "success"?
The very same thing Pep has achieved at Bayern, three times, yet is considered a failure?
Pellegrini is a shitty coach that benefits because he looks like a nice and educated grampa. Anyways its nice to see Chelsea, City and maybe even United outside CL. England's coefficient will go down to garbage

They aren't among the European big boys.
And let's not talk about how entitled most Bayern fans act.
>>67444144

>>67444103
then who gets left out?
>>67444174
He's the one man shitty fan responding to everyone ITT
>>67444157
His predecessor won the treble, so yes, for Bayern it was.
Pelli's predecessor couldn't get out the group stage, so for City it wasn't.
>>67444157
A CL semi final for a club that's never been in the CL is kind of a big deal. Or at least it should be for the fans.
Bayern is fucking Bayern. You can't compare the two.
I just want Pellegrini to PSG and a German crack whatever his name is between reus schurrle gotze ... IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK
fucking petrol billions dollars and can't even be bothered to buy good players
They already missed De Bruyne at the beginiing of the season.

*that's never been far in the CL
>>67444199
If I know I won't get a new contract at work, I sure as hell won't pour my heart into it anymore.
City assfucked themselves with Pep, right now and for the future.
Yoyo Touré and Pellegrini will just move on, leaving City in the EL.
Does anybody else not really understand the pep hire?
Are they going to buy a whole new team? No way can this squad play his style
>>67444157
Only autists like yourself consider it a failure
>>67444199

Bayern won the treble after Guardiola was announced.
If City/Pellegrini were affected by it it just shows that the coach and the players do not have the mental fortitude necessary
>>67444302
mou in cl because he'd actually have a shot at memeing his way to a cl win
>>67444363
Because it was Heynckes' last job and they both knew it from the start.
>>67444300
Arguably none of them are.
>>67444386
also not wrong
I've been a city fan since FIFA 08 came out and I'm honestly glad this happened. I want to see Pep winning the EPL and Europa League next season and prove /sp/ wrong once more.
Sexts confirm United finishing 4th.
>>67444208
I don't think MP is a bad manager by any stretch on the imagination, but h'es underperformed at Man City.
1 League title that they only managed after Liverpool threw it away. No FA Cup, No CL titles and two League Cups is not what the club would have expected

But he took City to the Champions League semis.
It's a disappointing result in the league, but that's expected when you sack your manager but ask him to keep managing the team for three months. Pellegrini doesn't give a shit and you can't really blame him.
>>67444574
>when you sack your manager
Educate yourself before giving an opinion. Pellegrini wasn't sacked.
>>67444367
I think Mou needs to go through a redemption period. I feel his Darth Mou side we've seen recently has been crying and now in the story of hero's journey I think he's at the Ordeal Death & Rebirth. He's been through all the phases so far desu, what a dramatic man
May be Mou to some smaller club again? I think that's what he needs
>>67444666
or I mean (also check my digits) look - if he joins United competing in the EL, he'd be at the 9th stage.
"Reward, Seizing the Sword" - means seizing the EL. Then "The Road Back" - means back to CL and finally resurrection winnig the games and returning with the elixir (a CL win). Then we can say he's the greatest manager ever.
Pellegrini's only success in Europe was beating a few decent sides like Bayern, Juve and PSG.
Other than that, they were shit.
>>67444494
Looks at the state of the league m8.
>>67444217
Nobody. They changed the rules to reserve a spot for the EL winner.
>>67444720
They lost both games against Juve
>>67442946

>>67444649
Oh, no, he wasn't sacked in a literal sense. He was just informed that he wouldn't be contuining managing City at the end of the season because City would opt out of the contract with a clause that they had added to that effect. It's an early sacking.

Pellegringi sign an extension last year
His goal was 5 trophies in 5 years
He got 3 in 3 so far
Im sure the severance pay is big
>>67444947
It's a matter of incentives, m8. Why would you care about the result of the league if you're gone anyway at the end of it? I mean, this should be specially obvious at a mercenary club where the only reason to play is the money.
Besides, you're not understanding the nature of Pellegrini's contract extension signed in 2015. It was not penned in the terms you describe.
>>67444959
The UEFA Executive Committee held in May 2013 approved the following changes to the UEFA Champions League starting from the 2015–16 season (for the three-year cycle until the 2017–18 season):[2]
The winners of the previous season's UEFA Europa League will qualify for the UEFA Champions League. They will enter at least the play-off round, and will enter the group stage if the berth reserved for the Champions League title holders is not used.
The previous limit of a maximum of four teams per association will be increased to five, meaning that if the Champions League title holders or the Europa League title holders are from the top three ranked associations (but not both from the same one) and finish outside the top four of their domestic league, the fourth-placed team of their association will not be prevented from participating in the tournament. However, if both the Champions League title holders and the Europa League title holders are from the same top three ranked association and finish outside the top four of their domestic league, the fourth-placed team of their association will be moved to the Europa League.[3]
>>67445061
Difference is one set of fans weren't tainted by a takeover.

show some respect to your overlords, Pierre
Pellegrini sucks balls and is a choker when he is on teams that need trophies. At Malaga and Villarreal no one would complained if he failed because those are small teams, so he had no pressure.
>pep gets knocked out of the UEFA Cup 3rd round by some Polish carpenters
it'd be perfect
>>67445009
So it still wasn't Guardiola, it was City
>>67445014
And they were right, as show by the rest of the season
>>67445115
>Why would you care about the result of the league if you're gone anyway at the end of it?
Because you're a fucking professional coach who's expected to act in a professional manner.
Pellegrini either did not act in a professional manner which makes his a shit coach or he simply finished 5th with a top 2 team despite trying his best - which also makes him a shit coach
>It was not penned in the terms you describe.
It was penned in a way that allowed the club to trigger an additional year. They decided not to, as agreed in the contract. End of story.
>>67445127
You are a piece of shit to be honnest. Stop spamming your trash and go clean the semen that is leaking from your ass

>>67445258
>And they were right, as show by the rest of the season
I know that you are a Shittybot, but you know that's not the case. Pellegrini deserved more respect than that, he won you the 2nd PL title and was the first to get you out of the CL group stage in your history. The moment the players knew Guardiola was coming they shat their pants. Toure is 100% gonna be sold since him and Guardiola clearly never got along. Navas will most likely go. Nasri will also.
Announcing the replacement for your coach 6 months in advance with everything still to play is the dumbest thing a club can do. Bayern got super lucky but that treble is a once in a lifetime event, most likely an announcement like that only destabilizes the squad for various reasons.
desu Pellegrini looks a bit moor-ish, like a Moroccan or some shit. How the fuck does that nigga keep his hairline that good at his age, that's extremely rare
>>67445393
>Bayern got super lucky
They didn't get lucky, they were simply the best team in the world and played like it.
City and their coach meanwhile are a bunch of soft bitches and they played like a bunch of soft bitches.
>>67445258
>Because you're a fucking professional coach who's expected to act in a professional manner.
That doesn't exist at the end of the day, m8. I mean, I understand why you would say that, but at the end of the day, especially in a club like Manchester City, incentives are the only thing that matter.
>It was penned in a way that allowed the club to trigger an additional year. They decided not to, as agreed in the contract. End of story.
That's a more accurate description, but it's not what you said in your other post, m8.
>>67445449
He's clearly indian, and indians dont go bald (at least Mapuches)
At the time of the announcement shitty were 3 points behind top spot and title favourites.
Are you people really so stupid to believe that a coach would throw away the league title because the club announced his successor in February?
Pellegrini and shitty shat the bed, no two ways about it. The whole Guardiola thing is just a convenient excuse for a horrendous collapse and Pellegrini should be fired anyway if that team finishes outside of top 4.

>>67445387
what
>>67445478
No, Bayern got super lucky to win a treble when every player knew that he may be out the door to make room for Pep's transfers. And have some respect for the man that made you into a respectable team in Europe, before him you barely managed to finish 3rd in the groups instead of being in the semifinals.
>>67446104
>every player knew that he may be out the door to make room for Pep's transfers.
So now you're saying that announcing Guardiola was a positive thing because it gave players motivation. So which one is it?
>you
I'm a United fan and I'd much rather have Pellegrini at City than Guardiola. But facts are facts, Pellegrini underachieved with this team, especially taking into account how much money he spent (over 300m in 3 years).
>>67446306
>So now you're saying that announcing Guardiola was a positive thing because it gave players motivation. So which one is it?
No, I said that players shit their pants usually when you make an announcement like that and what happened at Bayern was a super rare occurence.
>>67446306
Money isn't everything at football clubs, look at united you've spent nearly 300million in transfers since van gaal came in and have got absolutely nothing to show for it
>>67446902

So, what exactly are you basing this on? How many teams have imploded after the coach was announced in mid season?

Fuck shitty. Ungrateful small-time cunts

When have United ever done anything like that?

So you admit that some modicum of talent is needed as a coach/manager to channel all that ego and talent and money into something productive?
>>67447545
I never said it takes no talent. I just said that Pellegrini (and van Gaal) failed at converting huge spending into consistent success and it should come as no surprise that City want someone like Guardiola instead of him.
>>67447613
what clubs/managers have a good track record with spending though? barely anyone in recent times:
>madrid have won 1 cl and 1 league in 10 years
>manure have gone to shit as soon as fergie left
>chelsea have won a bit, but have had huge managerial turnover and really big slumps
>city have been pretty meh
>liverpool have been poor apart from 1 suarez season, on the back of giving brodge 200m+ to spend

Good for him.
Fucking 3/4th of the fans left the fucking stadium before he finished his goodbye speech. Fucking disgusting IMO.
