Pep: Laporte is best in the world

Page 1 of 2

Must be true if Pep said it

Laporte carries a relatively poor City side. You can see how much they have missed him. Record breaking PL champions with him, 19 points off top without him.

VVD is merely a cog in the Liverpool machine, surrounded by world class players.

Laporte all day long based on evidence and facts.

he and VVD would make a great partnership. defo the 2 best at the moment in the league if not up there in the world

Yeah ok Pep.

I think this is one of the "many reasons" Pep keeps mentioning why they are so far behind this year. Nothing to do with the fact that he still had like 150 mil worth of defenders to play and look at his own shortfall.

But Laporte is good but is he better than Matip on form?

High praise indeed, coming from a United fan.

I'm not going to lie, I have absolutely no idea who Matip is. Who does he play for?

Laporte is a great player, but the best he isn't. He I a big reason City are so far behind, but Pep is the biggest reason. Not recognising the rest of the central defence is awful is all on him.

Klopp has the best, plus two top others and Lovren who does well enough when we need him.

Fergie always had 3 or 4 that he could use. Pep messed up. Best manager in the world? Not for me. The best wouldn't make such a poor error.

I think you guys are meaning Joel Gomez. He is the Liverpool centre back isn't he. Not the Dutch one the other one. It is easy to get confused though so don't worry

So by that admission/statement, klopp is obviously a far better manager than Pep.
If pep has spent a billion and has one decent cb then surely he must be held accountable?
I'd take VD or let laporte myself but he is Def cities best defender.
And 😅at city not having world class players

Klopp isn't the better manager. He just has better players and is at an already established club. Typical for him to pick the easy option going to arguably one of the biggest and most successful clubs in the world, who had already won 6 European Cups and countless EPLs, has a massive worldwide fanbase who sell out their ground every week and create an ideal atmosphere for success.

Pep went to a glorified League 1 team and won them back to back championships, with virtually no history, no fans, virtually no previous success and players like Fabien Delph.

If Klopp wants to prove himself, do it at a smaller club who isn't already one of the most successful in the history of club football. Then he might get some respect from us true football fans.

Ffs. Come on. Ofcourse he is.. vvd is no 1. And laporte is above the rest.

posted on 22/1/20

I dont think vvd is left footed... strange thing to say imo. Shouldnt matter what foot a cb prefers

This best player thing is nonsense. None of City players if not one (Debruyne who didnt even feature last season) made the Top 10 of European team of the year yet City won 3 trophies and are almost certainly the Top 3 best side in Europe.

World class players matter but ultimately its down to the coach and how the team operates.

Secondly, are there still fans that really believe that managers scout and sign players Honestly we have children on this site to think that a manager actually scouts and goes to watch players This is not 1995, football clubs dont operate that way anymore.

A manager tells his superiors the positions in which he requires new players and the people appointed to do that come up with a shortlist and the manager is requested to input and then after that the club sign the player.

Managers DONT BUY players, they make recommendations. PEP did not sign Debruyne and Klopp did not sign Salah, they just provide input.

Their remit is to coach and manage the football team. These are not the Wenger, Fergie years.

City did try to sign a center back (Maguire) They could not afford him
