People should listen to Didsbury Dave more, he talks a lot of sense!

He's been talking the truth about Mancini and the tactics we play for ages now and everyone's slagged him off. Then the fans at the stadium proved DD to be right and suddenly the fickleness on here happened again. Everyone suddenly agreed that we are a bit boring and Mancini is a bit clueless.

DD is right again about this subject, you ask any supporter at a game or any football player/pundit/manager/fan around the country and they will tell you how good a player AJ is and how ridiculous it would be to get rid. I'll wait until the next City game for you's all to change your mind though, when you're all watching on your dodgy internet stream and we're all singing AJ's name.

He's forced to many good players out the club, this one would be one of the worst and I imagine Tevez wouldn't be too far behind him.

This is the exact reason I don't want Bale at City. If we signed him, we'd ruin his career by putting him on the bench just so we could play a 7th defensive midfielder. It's not fair on these exciting players.

You my friend are an idiot.
"He's forced to (too by the way) many good players out the club?"
Who? Ireland? Onouha? Mak? Weiss? Bellamy? The only talent he's lost is Robinho, and he was not right for City nor is he right for AC. The rest, Ireland will be out of football within 2 years, Onouha, not very good, never was, too injury prone, slagged the club and manager off for 5 minutes on national TV, Bellamy has played 6 games for Cardiff, so what are we missing?

DD loved Hughes, it is Hughes' ridiculous signings that have made us a laughing stock, and partially the reason Mancini's hand is forced. £18m RSC, £18m Jo, £9m SWP, £12m Bridge £22m Lescott. That's £89m of dross that wouldn't get in any other top side, and is what Mancini has been left with. Mancini has turned De Jong into a great player, he could pass 3 yards under Hughes, He's turned Kompany from a bit part midfielder into an outstanding centre back, and turned Toure back into a great centre back. Before you say anything about Kompany he was on the bench for Hughes last 4 games! Even Tevez has scored 22 of his League goals under Mancini, after Mancini changed his position.
Mancini has turned what was a side in 9th in the Prem behind Birmingham into a top 4 side with £120 million spent, If Mancini had of had all the Money Hughes' spent too, I assure you we would not have had RSC, SWP, Bridge, Jo & Lescott anywhere near our squad.

Fans who like to moan, are used to losing and prefer the way it used to be, think Richard Dunne is a hero are the only ones agreeing with DD, on most Posts he is routinely rounded on by progressive thinking fans who know what it takes to move forward!!!

that is my opinion am i not allowed one.
i think he was all the attributes to become one of the best wingers in the world.its up to him whether he achieves what he can.
we must keep hold of him

Good post that mate, Mancini is doing the right thing with AJ by making him work for his place, it will keep his feet on the ground, ignore all this crap about wanting out, it's the sun putting a slant on his words.

AJ like, Tevez, de Jong and Kompany will end up a better player in the long run under the wing of Mancini.

You are certainly allowed to punctuate.

I don't like your opinion when you call our manager an "..arrogant Italian ****." That simply brilliant opinion of yours tends to make me think you may have an agenda and side with anyone or anything that is pushing against our manager.

But I would agree that AJ is a good player (and he has bought me 2 pints in the past and came across as a nice guy) and can possibly go on to do good things and I hope they are with City. But he does definately need to wind his neck in. Mancini knows what he is doing and is Italian footballing royalty. I would certainly think that Mancini has Jonno's best interests at heart and knows a damn sight more than him about how to play the game and live the life of a successful footballer.

There - you made me come off my iphone and turn my laptop on so that I could answer you properly.

when we do the 4 1 2 1 2 diamond system there wont be room for aj im afraid, i thought this in the beginning of the season too. he might start 1 of 4 games unless Silva gets hurt. but i don't know what will happen

From the Shay Given article...

"He said: 'There's so much written about Manchester City, it's unfair at times.

'We have spent a lot of money on a lot of big-name players and outside of the club, the press are trying to say there are arguments every day and trying to make big stories out of small stories.

'That's part and parcel, I suppose, of being at a club with huge ambition and with fantastic owners behind us."

Sums up the Johnson article for me. Most players would prefer to play regularly and most would consider moving if they're not. Nothing unusual or unique to Adam Johnson. Maybe he's been a little too open and honest with his answers though.
