This is a pathetic attempt to cover your arse. So if he fails he's been exposed as a fraud and you are so right and if he succeeds, it's all down to the talent available. Sure...

I sense a tad bit of hostility, and cover my ass? From what? Him succeeding? City were going to do well with or without him my ass requires no cover there. They're currently second without Pep, however could they manage without him?
Its no secret that I've personally never been convinced that Pep is God's gift to coaching.
At Barca he was gifted with a solid core group that were already there as well as another group coming up from the youth team that he'd already been working with and its not like he was taking on some poor team with no money or decent players that was fighting a relegation battle, they came in 3rd.
Ditto for Bayern and now ditto again for City.
He takes on teams that have no financial constraints, and established core and are already doing well and goes from there.
He isnt there to build a dynasty and he isnt in it for the long haul. Hes expressly said as much.
