bazooka1: But Pep has dominated Klopp in the domestic scene hands down besides Klopp spending a fortune and by Pep was clearly robbed off the Champions League this season. Either way, Pep has broken records in the England Klopp can only dream off. |

TheGoodJoe:Of course Pep broke records in England. I doubt any manager have spent half a billion within a 3 year span. I haven't checked but I want to believe Klop and Liverpool were responsible for knocking out Man city from the Champions league last season. So much for Guardiola's dominance over Klopp. |

TheGoodJoe: If indeed he had the midas touch like you think, he should have groomed a couple of players from the City academy. Guys like Tosin Aderabayo didn't even get a look in. A good manager will give chance and groom youth players then add boost the group with quality additions, just like Klopp. But no, oga Pep binned everybody and went haywire with the check book. |

bazooka1: With another ojoro. Why do you people like Robbing City? Either way, Klopp has done well in Europe and Guardiola has been a blast on the domestic scene which takes a lot of work and determination. If money could buy what Guardiola would have done, Manchester United would have done so. |

first of why are sometimes so emotional and rude when passing across your points? if it were just bants i would understand but this is the uptenth time you are doing this. dude you are a christian or so you claim we can debate issues without throwing insults. have i referred to you as an ignoramus in any post before? forgiveness be guided. now to your points for ajagun it's not about the span of his career but how well he has done so far. he won one miserly greek cup because of that we should do somersaults? answer me was he ever voted one of the best in the nigerian greek dutch or belgium leagues that you will not let us rest? who mentioned awaziem? we are talking about ilori who you claimed is supposed to be a marquee defender trust you to cherry pick the stats that fit your narrative even if we compare the two tiago at 26 years old should be nearing his best not competing with a 22 year old awaziem who is just in the early stage of his career? how the "mighty" have fallen. ebuehi before his injury was outstanding in his dutch club den haag that's why benfica bought him. tiago you will probably claim has been blighted by injury but he hasn't suffered season or career ending type injuries so how come the times he's fit is he not getting playing time? he for instance has only played 4 times this seasons while being injured for just a month what happened to the remaining months? you call playing 9 out of 19 games successful? omeruo has played almost every game for leganes has been named in team of the week twice was ilori ever named man of the match in spain? yes he ran back to portugal cos that's his comfort zone to revive his career. what even brought nwakali into this matter? have i ever hyped him or campaigned for him to be invited to the super eagles? nwakali is poor, iheanacho is poor, ajagun is poor, ilori is poor cest fini! forgiveness: 2 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: But that's why I have been saying. He was brought to deliver titles with a huge wad of cash reserves. He didn't have to balance any books or sell his best players to fund transfers. He's had it that easy. This is exactly the reason why I believe Klopps have made much more impact than him. |

bazooka1: Guardiola does not balance books because he met an aging squad unlike Liverpool that can buy Clyne today and sell him tomorrow. Manchester City buy and keep players long term. Many run out their contracts with the club which is a sign of healthy and sound management unlike the way the media spins it to justify gung-ho buying and selling. |

bazooka1: Who makes that the way it should be? You? We have had the likes of Aguero, Silva and Kompany for ages. If we wanted to flaunt money, we could have sold them for fortunes. Meanwhile we get the best of them and unless a clear sign in drop of form or not fit to the new managers plans. Apart from Arnold, Gomez is not a starter. The whole Liverpool team is bought. Don't make it look like he used academy players. Is it Milner, Salah, Firmino, Wijnaldum, Mane, Henderson, Fabinho, Shaquiri, Robertson, Matip, Van Dijk, Origi, Chamberlain and others that are not bought? |

bazooka1: “Most of them are under contracts. A month ago, I started reading – ‘Rúben Neves, £100m’. That is not going to happen, we are not going to pay £100m for a holding midfielder. Of course, in all departments in the club, we have in every position four or five or six options – depending on age, what we believe and, of course, the price. “The most expensive one was Riyhad [Mahrez, £60m last summer] and he earns far away from what the top teams pay. Our wage bill for the players is eighth or ninth or 10th in Europe, so there are eight or nine clubs where the wages are higher than Manchester City pay. “We try to be stable in everything. When we spent a lot [two summers ago] – it was because the team was old – it was an average 30-31 years old and that’s why we did it. But we cannot do it every season. We have a limit and cannot spend more so that’s why we need to be careful with the players and try next season to see what we can do to improve.” https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/football/2019/jan/13/pep-guardiola-manchester-city-ruben-neves-wolves 1 Like |

bazooka1: Hahaha. With each passing post you expose your ignorance even further. City had 3 fledgling talents. Brahim Diaz, Phil Foden and Jordan Sancho. All 3 Pep did not want to sell. Brahim wanted to go to Madrid, you don't mention him even though it is clear that decision was poor. Sancho left, you want to use it to deride Pep but same you is forgetting that Phil said he wanted to stay because he knew his game will improve under Pep. Same you is asking me how Pep improved the players even when I clearly told you that their goals, assists trophy halls, EPL team of the year, EPL player of the year awards and nominations have all gone up. You are a special type of ignorant. Just ask questions and learn. |

bazooka1: Henderson's career is revived? Hahaha hahaha. What about the same squad Pep inherited from Pellegrini that has garnered 195pts in 2 seasons alone? If garnering that much points was a given why has no coach done it before? Raheem was the same quality with Iwobi before Pep. Today Raheem is footballer's writers player of the year, young player of the year and has more than 50 goals and 30 assists in 2 seasons alone. Tell me how much Raheem will go for if anyone wanted to sign him? That is how to REVIVE a player. Not to mention Henderson that has not even outscored Laporte this season. LMAO. |

bazooka1: What check does Klopp balance? Why do you guys lie for a living? If you sell old players like Sagna, Clichy, Zaba, Toure, Jesus Navas, Fernando, Hart, how much will you get from them in return to balance books? You keep saying Liverpool signed players from the academy but you are conveniently ignoring that Delph a CM was played as a LB all through last season in a team that won 100pts. |
