Pep's looking nailed on for Chelsea next season then

[JJSB]

Quite a gamble, though a logical one. Guardiola's had one managerial job in his hometown. Who's to say he can reproduce that elsewhere in a different league and culture? Will be very amusing if he can't with Abramovich having chased him all this time.

What fun it could've been

[Red N White Army]

Freed up Xavi and Iniesta by bringing Busquets in to sit deep, as well as coaching them how to press and win the ball back so effectively. Yes, the academy provided the players, but it was Guardiola that built the team around them as well as trusting academy players like Busquets, Pedro etc.

but I won't be shaken in my view that he was fortunate to have such talent at his disposal when he was appointed manager.
