City are getting better but let's see if he can win vs Arsenal this weekend (can't believe there will be time Arsenal are the test for Pep).

Will be interesting to see how Donnarumma copes with Arsenal's set pieces. He did really well with United's - he was coming off his line and getting distance on his punches, makes a huge difference because look how meek and glued to his line Bayindir is - but Arsenal are several orders of magnitude more dangerous from them than United are.

It will be an interesting game. I don't think City are as finished as some claim, but I still think Arsenal will likely win with the home advantage and better form.

Unfortunately, Pep is not the tactical innovator anymore. He has become more direct, even being forced to park the bus, as he is struggling to catch up with the rest.

It is what it is...

Yup. I made a post on this recently. Called it as usual.

He is the new Mourinho?!

But I blame is this on him. He should have taken that break again and come up with fresh ideas after he won the CL. That generation was done and it was perfect time to take a break. Let City build new generation.

Would pay attention if sample size was more than one game.

I think he took the best approach vs Arsenal, expectations wise. His team is clearly out of rhythm or lacking style or combinations. It's a fresh team in a tough place. Counter strategy with Haaland is never a bad choice.
