cibaman said:I gained great pleasure watching the way Mancini went about his task. Sorting out the defense, getting the team organised and then adding the flair. I'm prepared to accept that he had taken us as far as he could, that MP might take us up another level. But I wouldn't have missed that interim stage.
I can't for the life of me work out how our 11//12 title wasn't won the right way, apart from nearly giving me a coronary.
The "problem" at the time came about from the fact that you could draw a line from Norwich at home to the corresponding fixture at Carrow Road and all the games in between we didn't really play well at all in. Either side of that patch we played some exhillarating football and crushed teams. That was a good half of the season where we weren't anywhere near our best yet we still won the league because we were so brilliant in the other half, but we kept churning out home wins when we poor.
