And his last 10 UEFA Champions League campaigns suggest he's probably over qualified to manage England... Barcelona... 2011/12 - Semi-Final Bayern Munich... 2013/14 - Semi-Final 2014/15 - Semi-Final 2015/16 - Semi-Final Manchester City... 2016/17 - Round of 16 2017/18 - Quarter-Final 2018/19 - Quarter-Final 2019/20 - Quarter-Final 2020/21 - Finalist 2021/22 - Semi-Final 2022/23 - ??? It's hard to see how he'll lose this year's Final. But coming up short has become a habit for Pep in Europe.

Mind you the City second string included Phillips (£50 million), Mahrez (£50 million) and Alvarez, a world cup winner and a snip at £14million. If you want to win the Prem you better have a least a billion quid tucked down the sofa.

It's hard to see how he'll lose this year's Final. But coming up short has become a habit for Pep in Europe. I don’t dislike Pep but there’s a heap of hyperbole that surrounds him. He won the European cup with Barca, but in truth, anyone could’ve won the European cup with that Barca side, however, as you’ve pointed out, since then he’s been a bit of a disaster in Europe. The one final so far with city, he copulated about with the side and system and Chelsea did them… He hasn’t done that so much this season and I think the recognises system and selection on the second leg against Real helped to dismantle them… As you say though, perfect record for an England manager… 'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza
