Nope, many people on here have echoed what I've said.

They were wrong too.

I'm not playing the numbers game here -" eat at Joe's Cafe 3 million flies can't be wrong" - is not an argument.

I'm simply saying that just because Pep is one of the best managers in the world doesn't mean he can't screw up, and he has screwed up. He's the most high profile representative of the club and he's given our 'friends' in the media another stick to beat us with.

The MSM understood exactly what he said, as did any fair minded person.

Those players aren't here. He would bring his own coaching staff. I'm sure he's had time to reflect on his behavior and what he did at times at City. Yes, he wasn't a saint, and had a few bust ups, but I'd still have him back. So would a large % of City fans. Whether Mansour would have him back, or whether he'd come back, is a different matter altogether.

I take your point but the players were only a fraction of the issues. I am delighted with what he achieved but I cannot see a return.

When you said 'clarified' I bet you meant 'backtracked'.

He did that to try and cover up his initial mistake.

Every time he has a sly dig at the club we forgive and move on. We don't forget the sleights.

It's why he's respected but not loved.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Err, OK!


You’ve forgotten who works for whom, mate!

Wake me up when he uses that free speech to speak some truth to the things that go in behind the scenes! Until then, when he steps in front of the camera, he is a BOUGHT AND PAID FOR MOUTHPIECE.

He has the luxury of being pretty sure he isn’t going to be sacked for anything he says, but I’m sure if, being the proud Catalan he is, and having already expressed his feelings about Spain and independence, he spoke his mind about how people are treated in the UAE, and even in Abu Dhabi, it might raise an eyebrow or two!

Do your ideals wrt free world extend to the UAE?

Free World, my arse!

This is the "Etihad- atmosphere" thread, a football discussion about his comments on Wednesday night. Maybe your post should be on the "General" forum.

Safe to say Mancini had a total sliding doors moment with 93:20. He'll always have that at a time that we as a fan base were in a very different position. If those 2 minutes had panned out differently, i wonder how much Mancini would get the love he does.
 
Odd he seemed a bit surprised he was challenged on what he said, surely both the club and himself must have seen the furore around it.

I thought it was a bit wrong to mention Kevin Parker by name in a slightly mocking tone. Like him or lump him he is the general secretary of the official supporters club and deserves a bit more respect

So does Pep for being called out on something he didn't say.
