Why would he take orders from above? He is going at the end of the season. IMO it was 100% his decision in picking the team and tactics.

Because the CL is far more important to the club than the FA cup is. Money, co efficient points, sponsorships and even player recruitment makes it so.

Why would Pelle care about that? He won't be there next season.
 
His decision is already justified. But if we go through after Dynamo Kiev then it does vindicate him. and not because a quarter final in Europe is worth more than an FA Cup title. Don't be ridiculous. It's not ust FA Cup title versus Chimps League QF. this is injury and fatigue versus success. This is League Cup final versus, FA Cup round versus Premier League title versus Champs League Qf. It's not a simple gamble. One must consider all angles, all eventualities and even then... NOTHING IS GUARANTEED. THERE IS NO SWAPPING VICTORIES AROUND. So please stop this drivel about FA Cup title versus CHimps League QF. Argue something that someone is actually saying
And if we dont beat Kiev.Will he still be vindicated ?

Ferran, Txiki and Khaldoon care and they are his bosses.

Its very simple when you think about it. Manager tells employee this is how it needs to be because of this, that and the other.

I know its always so black and white on here for a few and the blame game is so much more fun but yesterday was a club decision, end of.
 
Champions league is clearly more important as a revenue stream and global audience, However what he did was wrong

I understand that from the club's perspective. What I am asking is why would a manager who is going at the end of the season care about that?

Well please provide the proof? What you are doing is giving your opinion. I have a different opinion.

because he has integrity and is a decent man deep down, alsthough i think his decision was completely wrong !!
 
In every business I have been connected with important matters have been discussed and not just left to one person. It is inconceivable that Pellegrini alone would have made the decision without others being involved in that decision. It is a fact that the CL is very important to the club and we may still get knocked out but it doesn't diminish its importance.

No proof needed, just a grasp on the realities of modern day football.

For the record, i love the FA cup and fucking despise the CL so in my heart, i hate what went on yesterday but i get it 100% and fully appreciate the thought process that went into deciding why the FA cup was thrown under the bus.

He is in charge of the first team, so he makes those decisions.. he might have told others what he was doing. But i doubt he would ask for permission.

No. And I see the point that you're leading me towards. It's not unreasonable. But I consider it like this...

Playing a strong side in FA Cup, in this particular situation = trying to roll 5 or 6 on a dice.

Playing a weak side in FA Cup, in this particular situation = trying to roll 3, 4, 5 or 6.

When you take our injuries, our form, our potential success this season and the long term goal of trying to rule the world of football... he's made the right gamble, win lose or draw. But no, he certianly won't be vindicated if we lose on Wednesday. And he take a lot of flak, which is way this results-based business goes. But I still support his decision.


FA Cup being a better competition in terms of history, storylines, magic, romance, less corrupt... none of that matters a jot when it comes to the MCFC, which trumps everything in football. We have to do what's best for the club.
 
It will be interesting to see the reaction on here,if things go tits up this week.
It doesn't change the validity of the original decision. He made a judgement before the games. If things go tits up you can't use hindsight to say it was a bad decision partly because you cant know the result of the alternative, we could have lost and had injuries, nobody knows. Also you make a best judgement, if you decide to walk on the pavement and get knocked down by a car mounting the pavement, people can't then use hindsight a say the decision to walk on the pavement was wrong.

We could have also won, had no injuries and given them confidence to go and win the next 2... a bit like the run we had when we won the league !!
 
Considering the health of our squad i dont know why pellers is being criticised for his decision, in current situation we are basically one more injury away for throwing away any chance of progressing in CL and throwing away little chance we have for pl. Moreover we shouldnt forget how much injury prone aguero and kompany are both of whom are our last hope for this season.
I would really like to add few fa cups to our trophy cabinet but can do with league cup for this year

lets hope
 

So Manuel has done what's best for the club has he? Utilising all of the resources at his disposal is best for the club not just throwing them into the mix in a big FA Cup game once a fucking season. May i suggest all he cares about is his fucking self no more no less.
