That was as a result of the following factors:

- introduction of new players
- optimism and self belief from the players who believed in the project and
- The one factor that we all know but never acknowledge - Mourinho

But the most important factor was Stevie G. (Honourable mention - Eminem for the track "lose yourself" , the song that hyped up Stevie G up until he lost himself and his team the title in front of the entire world)

Had very little to do with Pellegrini's managerial skills. The only game I really enjoyed under Pellegrini was the 4-1 trashing we gave to the rags, Nasri was unplayable that day. All down to the players and not Pellegrini's predictable 65 minute substitutions.


This one was pretty decent:

I think the only player that managed to maintain his standard under Pellegrini was KDB, Even players like Yaya and Silva became so poor, at some point I thought I was watching Steed Malbranque play for us. Pellegrini was an atrocious manager, had nothing on Mancini
You must have a short memory then, aguero managed 28, 32 & 29 goals in each season under him which were big numbers at that time. KDB only played one season under him.

3 trophies in 3 seasons and at the time took us the furthest we had ever been in the CL missing out on the final by a fluky deflected goal in Madrid. We were good to watch in his first season.

He was an obvious stopgap from the start and it got a little sour towards the end but I think he did exactly what he was meant to and was far from atrocious. Haven't got a bad word to say about the man.

Ridiculous take.

Atrocious managers don't win the Premier League title.

Pellegrini did what he was brought in to do. Keep the ship steady until Pep arrived. The first year in particular saw some fantastic football, possibly a better level of football than we saw under Mancini.

Unfortunately the least season saw him go with a bit of a whimper and we only qualified for the CL by the skin of our teeth. But overall he achieved what he was meant to.
