🚨 Pep Guardiola is leaving Manchester City. And before City fans start writing his obituary as the greatest manager of all time, let’s have a quick word.

19 trophies in 10 years at City. Impressive. Genuinely. Nobody is taking that away.

But let’s put some context around those numbers before the statues get commissioned.

Guardiola had the most expensively assembled squad in Premier League history at his disposal. Every single transfer window. Every single year. Limitless resources. A club willing to spend whatever it took, and a Financial Fair Play case hanging over them that somehow never seemed to slow anything down.

Need a full-back? £50 million.
Need a centre-back? £60 million.
Need a striker? £100 million.
Need depth? Buy another international.

Most managers are forced to solve problems. Pep simply replaced them.

Now compare that to Sir Alex Ferguson.

Sir Alex won 13 Premier League titles, 2 Champions Leagues and 5 FA Cups with a club he built from the ground up. He developed young players, rebuilt multiple generations and dominated English football for 27 years, not 10.

He did it through the Eric Cantona years, the Roy Keane years, the Cristiano Ronaldo years and the Ryan Giggs years. Different squads. Different eras. Same outcome.

@jonmikesav8 Seriously I don't understand 🙄 Who the fuck does this apart from fickle glory hunting arseholes

[Tina Stokes @Beenajoy69]

@DaytrippingRed Doubt it They care more about a Utd goal that shouldn't have been given and a pull in a hair bobble than an actual horrible tackle that could've caused a serious unjury

Keir Starmer 7/7/2022:

“He [Boris]needs to go. He can’t cling on. His own party have now decided that he’s unfit to be prime minister. They can’t now inflict him on the country for the next few months”

He called for a GE.

Starmer’s own standards suggests that he should resign.

On this day in history, 32 years ago…

John Smith, the Labour Party leader, was 55 years old when he died from a heart attack on May 12, 1994.

He once said:

“People in Britain today are angry: not just disappointed, not just disillusioned, but angry. They are angry at the state of Britain; angry at the total absence of leadership; angry at the absence of vision; angry at the hypocrisy and double standards; and they are angry at the incessant incompetence of a Government they no longer respect and increasingly despise.”

And tragically, his words of wisdom (aimed against the Tory government) could equally apply to Keir Starmer’s government of today.

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

Currently we have a UK government led by a Prime Minister that no one likes and despite over 80 MPs calling for him to quit, is still clinging to power because no MP has the courage to take him on. And we have a King’s Speech tomorrow which will outline the legislative programme from a Prime Minister who is unlikely to be around to implement it. A farcical shitshow. We are paying our taxes for a bunch of clowns to run this circus.

@JamesMelville @miraaikie I thought for a second you were talking about Carney in 🇨🇦. These elite net zero fanatic, useless virtual-signalling socialists, are all the same. They are either completely unaware of what is happening in the real world, or just adamantly refuse to even contemplate the facts.

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

“Let me be clear…I broke numerous promises. I invented a £22 billion black hole to punish pensioners, farmers, the disabled, small businesses and students. I tried to give away Chagos and pay £35 billion to do so. I increased unemployment. I increased the government deficit. I appointed Peter Mandelson despite his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein having already been published in various media outlets. I promised to cut energy bills and council tax, but instead, the opposite happened. I did absolutely nothing to resolve the cost of living crisis and made it worse by increasing the tax burden to record levels. I prioritised hanging out with the Davos / BlackRock clique rather than genuinely ‘fixing the foundations’. I promised a ‘transparency revolution’, but instead, operated under smoke and mirrors and sacked colleagues and threatened suspending Labour MPs who voted against me. I spaffed £30 billion away on carbon capture machines. I failed to sort out the small boats / hotels for illegal immigrants. £3 billion a year to Ukraine and big hugs from Volodymyr. I smeared anyone who dared to criticise me a ‘far-right’. I sanctimoniously lectured everyone like they were naughty children. And I have absolutely no intention of resigning after disastrous local election results because I am right and everyone else is wrong. Me first. Country second.”

@paulabearthe2nd There is no Far Right. What they mistake as 'Far Right' is just a heightened sense of awareness.
