Listen to you all getting giddy. What did you expect him to say as the season reaches it's climax? If he was so 'long term thinking' as you lot like to imagine why did he not give Mancini a new contract last summer, or last christmas?

'it's been a decent season but I'm not convinced on the Italian. Depends on whether Jose is moving on, or if we win the league. Poncey haired twat might even resign'

Amusingly, many believe it is and always has been khaldoon who champions Mancini, not the sheikh.

Noone knows what Abu dhabi are thinking until season end. He may be kept on, he may be sacked, he may walk. This quote in itself is of course totally meaningless.

timed to perfection if you ask me, just in time to prevent all the city are cracking , mancini under pressure shite.

To be fair to Dave he hated hughes and sven too i think. he had to hate Pearce ( who didn't ?) not sure how he felt about keegan but i bet keegan pissed him off at the end. the next man will have to be peter fucking perfect to stand a chance tbh. I bet even jose would end up getting on his tits eventually. Fact is, nobodies going to get it 100% all the time and they will make mistakes. even mourinho has an ego and stubborness that would challenge even the most patient of guys.

What does he say?
