Re: Adebayor
I am stunned that there are still people who believe that Roberto Mancini has under performed with us. He took over from a tactically inept manager who had spent a quarter of a billion pounds on a mixture of players who did not gel, and in a lot of cases were not cut out for a successful dynasty -in some cases they were just more bother than they were worth and in others simply not good enough - the former including Adebayor, Robinho, Bellamy, the latter including Bridge, Jo, RSC, Given (no offence to Shay, a good guy and good keeper but Hughes had basically fucked off Hart for him).
Bobby took that over, he has pretty quickly sorted out the poor performers and the poor attitudes, and transformed us into title winners in only his second full season. He has transformed the whole attitude of the playing side of the club, and turned us quikcly into winners. Yes he has spent a lot of money, but probably actually less than Hughes did (although I am too pissed to add the numbers up) and a fair degree of it has been the "City premium" but he has by and large got it right, and we now have a team of winners.
I think someone on here slagged him off for the fact we lost at Everton - fucking hel everyone has the odd dodgy resultl, the scum lost at home to Blackburn and drew at home to Everton, are we saying their manager is completely fucking useless - I hate the **** with a passion, but he isn't really, is he?
Why cant people accept we have a manager who is successful, who is a winner, who has made a huge amount of progress in 2 and a half years, and is very likely to continue to do so? We can either embrace him (as 98% of City fans have done) or we can mutter that "we should have won at Everton and we did not do very well in the CL" (10 points in a veritable group of death was hardly shit was it?) - I know what I am doing - thanks Bobby, I am 53 years old and I am optimistic as a City fan for the first time in almost 40 years - sorry I am pissed but the negativity of some people drives me fucking mental
