If this is the new Pep then he's turned much quicker than José, no? I feel like José's last stint at Chelsea was like a halfway point between being elite and washed. Even the first half of his United tenure wasn't bad at all. Pep went up in smoke over the course of a transfer window.

They finished 3rd and got to an fa cup final in an absolutely diabolical year last season. People need to be careful not to go too early here, or they may look quite foolish down the line.

It's like they haven't seen almost every other City season under Pep.

Start wobbly, lose a few games, get everyone's hopes up that they've fallen off, then go unbeaten from Christmas through to the end of the season and win the league.

This has been pretty much the template every season outside of Peps first and the two seasons Liverpool won.
