Pep Guardiola

Pep Guardiola

6 from 6 since taking over Barca.

Immense.

just tell the spanish git to keep his filthy hands of our Cesc

Yeah. Not bad, at all. If he continues stopping the Madridistas, then happy days in Spain! But keep your hands off our Javier too, Pep.

Pep

Definately expecting Masch and Robinho to end up at the Camp Nou next season.

Pep is not Spanish, he's Catalan.

Pep fact of the day:

Since beginning his managerial career at Barcelona B in 2007, Pep has won every single trophy in every single competition that both of his sides have competed in.

Yeah.  It's terrible of Barcelona to try and lure the lad away from his home town, isn't it?

Guardiola appears to be finding the Barcelona gig a bit too stressful and is thinking about a break:

The press seem to love the story of Guardiola's possible sabbatical.  Of course, they can't find much to write about it.  Take this piece of anti-news:

It is difficult to think of how anyone could fail with the lineup Barca have!  Mind you Real Madrid always seem to manage to stuff up with similar strength line ups......

Always has to be one who comes along with Tall Poppy Syndrome. Deary me.

Go Osasuna! Beat the tall poppies yeh!

Orpewise is one of those people who likes to knock down the successful. That's why he supports Colchester United.

and Manchester united.

look Guardiola is so good people are already likening him to Arsene Wenger
you can't get higher praise than that.

Oh dear. Pep's Barca crashing out of the Copa del Rey... Despit a 0-1 win away at Sevilla, a 1-2 defeat in the Nou Camp sent them out on the away goals rule. If only we could win big tomorrow and get through- we'd piss this competition. Knocked out by Sevilla is no shame... Unlike Madrid!!!!!

Sorry if I upset anyone.  No I dont like to just knock the successful its just that Real Madrid have had a recent history of underperformance and the comment re Barca was lighthearted.....of course they could fail but the line up is so impressive it would be hard to imagine!

AC Milan's forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic will tell all in an autobiography due out in Sweden later this month, including details of his fiery rows with FC Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola.

In the book, entitled "I Am Zlatan Ibrahimovic", Ibra says he considered quitting football for good in 2009-2010 when things reached rock-bottom with Guardiola, according to Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet which published excerpts. The pair had a frosty relationship and had a major blow-out after a Champions League match against Villareal when Ibra was only allowed to play five minutes at the end of the game, after which he confronted Guardiola.

"I screamed: 'You have no balls!' And things probably much worse than that, and then I added: 'You sh*t yourself when it comes to Mourinho. You can go to hell!' I was totally crazy," he writes in the book, according to Aftonbladet.

He also took the time to reveal his true feelings for Barcelona star trio. "The atmosphere in the dressing room was way too quiet for me. Messi, Iniesta and Xavi always obeyed without protesting. They were like schoolboys. I'm not like that and I couldn't be myself."

Read some excerpts from it - Ibra going out of his way once again to prove to everyone he's a complete cock.el grapadura2011-11-08 11:25:33
