Mou @ Man U vs Pep @ Man C

Not sure why maybe Ive been busy lately, but its finally sinking in completely that we will be having another season or era even of Mou vs Pep, at Man U vs Man C! That could be almost just as fierce as their time at Real vs Barca. That is just mouth watering and I love the drama of it, and surely there will be lots of it with Mou around. With Pep imo probably able to command the biggest budget and pulling power these days over Man U, Mou will be under a lot of pressure. But his advantage of course is he is much more familiar with EPL than Pep.

Also for me, Mou > Pep in their time at Real vs Barca, not to mention earlier Inter vs Barca. He beat Pep so clearly that Pep even left Barca. One could say there were other factors but I think there is no denying Mou have gotten the better of Pep as time passed during that era. Therefore, purely speaking Mou vs Pep basis, Mou will be on top.

Come to think of it, everyone is thinking Mou probably will last just 3 years max., but if Mou starts well and gets the results and even trophies, Im sure the club will be very happy yo keep him and let him be, as long as he doesnt create too much negative drama. If that happens, knowing Man U, they will probably be more patient and mroe willing to give him time and freedom to reign, so he may yet be able to create his Man U era.

Another personal opinion is being a Man U hater, a Mou hater, and a Barca support, I will completely support Man C and hate Man U even more next season So the dilemma countines where Man C and Pep will more likely to lose out to Man U and Mou, which will be frustrating to see again, but no surprise at all. I hope I am wrong though of course

Anyway, bottom line is EPL will be even sooo much more intense with all the big boys back together with the rest of the teams being even more competitive, add to that the Mou dramas, Pep, Klopp, Conte, it will  be amazing Im sure. But the absolute most intriguing to see will be Mou vs Pep for me.

What do you think? Who is the better manager, and who will do better? Will they be successful long term if they can keep their jobs long?

Judging by their awful final game and falling yet again behind Arsenal, they surely are still the bigger bottlers than Arsenal, so I highly doubt Spurs would be the team to dominate the league for years to come

Thats interesting to know, I thought Spain would be just as England with the press and sensationalism. But u said it right, it will be such focus and build up to their rivalry im sure, its just going to be so intense and cant wait to see, pure entertainment

Interesting, I always thought the Spanish national team were marred by internal conflict too, thats just the way its been covered, no other way to know from outside the country anyway

Its good to learn that they media too disliked it, since Mou's Real did go too far, with the eye poking, dirty plays, and the rivalry just got too out of hand, so really good to know everyone changed for the better afterwards

Civilized and just enough conflict will do I guess, just far enough for good entertainment and not get too ugly

Just goes to show everything when viewed from different perspective could appear as something completely different

Brings back memories when u mentioend those details

Nobody else feeling the intrigue? Maybe still early days and the excitement will really grow as time goes and after the Euros

Not sure why so many posters say Pep is fraud I mean hes still one of the best managers in the world surely... Mou agreed is a dick though as we all know

But true that Mou is pragmatic and probably knows how to get the points needed straight away, whereas Pep probably needs more time to get his players to adapt to what he wants.

This is interesting since it seems many are unsure what to expect next season in terms of who will win the league, u got these two teams way off the top this season and two new managers, then similarly with Chelsea, but after that u got Arsenal and Spurs who for me are just eternal bottlers Leicester to retain their title? Considering all that it wouldnt be surprising to actually see Mou win the title straight away for example, or if Pep pulls it and proved everybody wrong
