Pep Guardiola wants League Cup to be scrapped to ease fixture congestion

Manchester City’s manager, Pep Guardiola, says dispensing with the League Cup is the obvious solution to a punishing schedule in England that is too much for players to bear
www.theguardian.com www.theguardian.com

How fucking dare he say a competition should be scrapped in this country. He has the biggest squad, all of the fucking riches to have two fantastic XIs if he wanted to and he has a moan about what happens on these shores?

Sorry but I really don't like this fucking guy. What a completel knob to think he can say such a thing. Don't like it, play your reserves but to say it should be scrapped lacks so much class. Think about all of those Colchester players who can tell their grandchildren about beating Spurs this season and playing up at Old Trafford, or the Burton fans who made it to the semi finals. What a liberty to try and change English football because he sees it as a burden. Fuck Pep!

Absolutely hate people with no respect for the history of the game. It's one of only two trophies teams that don't cheat their way to success have a chance of winning, he lacks so much integrity and appreciation it's unreal. Pompous arsehole!
 
They will scrap this competition but fly around the world for pre season.

Fuck off.

Just play the reserves from your squad of multi millionaires and some under 23s. Let some 2nd division team have the chance to play at the Etihad like you play shenzun tigers in China.

And in the background the 39th game is brewing.

Money money money. All it’s about. Getting properly fed up with football at the moment.

I do not want to play a top team. We need to rest players and a non Premiership team is best. I am fed up with supporters wanting to get difficult matches in cups. We either lose and go out or It makes it harder in Premiership matches as players are playing twice a week. Do you not want to win silverware as getting MC in the early stages is not going to help.

Read again...and possibly again.... I did not just type we draw Man City away.....I stipulated that we would also beat them by a VAR decision yet again and really drive them mad. For fuck's sake do you have a sense of humour ?

His time at City is probably up soon. He is just looking for excuses for City’s relatively poor performance this year. Their owners won’t accept 2nd place for long
