Pep

[Cannylad]

What will happen if he really leaves at the end of the season, is he getting out before the charges against Man C. are made public (about bloody time) and will it also just be a slap on the wrist for the owners. I'm sure the PL wont want a big fuss due to their fears of staining the league.

It has come a bit out of the blue-everyone was expecting next year to be his last so, aye, could be related to an incoming punishment.

[Jammy89]

I also think the punishment could be coming and that's why he is getting out.

I suspect they won't get to hit either.

Could well be some turmoil in the league next season if City are a bit all over the place having lost their lynchpin.

Apparently Maresca is going to replace him.

Apparently Maresca is going to replace him.

Aye - former coach, endorsement from Pep, they feel he did well at Leicester bringing them up and at chelski

[PhoneymcRingRing]

I wouldn?t say so you can see he?s clearly suffering from burnout. The club are responsible for what ever charges not him.

[Guybrush]

Pep always said he would leave if the club got found guilty.

No doubt it will be a statement 12 point deduction applied this season. Which funnily makes no difference to City with the exception of Man Utd potentially finishing above them.

Then other clubs can look and quiver in the might of the Premier League and its sanctions.

[Zippity]

I dunno.

If they're found guilty, I think they'll absolutely hammer them.
