In the context i would have said "it was a winner on two counts" but that would have been my personal preference.

I must admit that I too am seriously worried, concerned and utterly horrified with Mancini's malignant man-management skills.
I fear that at any moment the world is going to come crashing down around my head and the earth beneath my feet will crumble leaving gaping chasms into which I will fall.
I think DD should personally offer up some of his free time (if he's not too busy) and munificently impart some of his undeniable and unquestionable pearls of wisdom (with regards how to interact with top flight football players) to the maladjusted, malevolent and clueless Mancini. I think he would learn so much him.
Many of you just take the easy route and gratuitously slander DD with utterly unfounded and spurious bile. It's obvious to ANYBODY with half a brain that DD has no agenda against Mancini whatsoever and instead REALLY REALLY LIKES HIM and wants Mancini to succeed.
I think it's ridiculous that some people on this board (you know who you are) would suggest that DD cannot wait to see Mancini fail, that he obviously prays for the day to come soon and that an orgasmic rush of seminal fluid will overflow from his proud, stiff loins like molton lava errupting from Mount Vesuvius if that day does indeed come.
So people open your eyes and hearts. It's not that DD despises Mancini with a passion boardering on the pathological.
It's just that he REALLY REALLY CARES.

Where's my f'king money...? There you go, i've cranked it up again for you :)

Well, I personally know people who have worked with him and under him and a 'bully' he was never described as. A real friendly unassuming guy was how he would be described.
I guess I shouldn't have used Pearce as an example. But I figured if I used an example from my own professional life, I'd be accused of offending some other Bluemoon sensibility, so I thought I'd stick to football...
Okay, here's a much less inflammatory example. Paul Weller has the reputation for being a surly, arrogant, difficult customer. His relationship with the media has always been one of mutual distrust. He is without question one of the nicest, humblest, and generally coolest men I've ever had the pleasure of spending time with. On the flipside, musician X, who is seen as the bloke everyone would want to go and have a pint with. A top block who the media loves, and he loves them, and it's all one big loving fuckfest. Turns out, soon as the cameras are turned off, and no-one is listening, he's the most arrogant, difficult, surly, self obsessed human being you could ever have the dubious pleasure of being stuck with...like I said, public persona, and private persona. Two very different things.
