Discuss Pellegrini (Pt 2)

[FromPollockToSilva]

So did Pellegrini think that the line-up that was out there could turn it round? Or did he not believe that any changes could improve things? Or did he not see the problem in the first place?

I'm not sure which is the most worrying option...

Found wanting tonight I'm afraid although I'm sure someone will be on here soon to tell me different.

I am beginning to have doubts, he won't last long if he does not turn this around and nor does he deserve too

The rigidity of refusing to play a 3-man midfield has gone beyond perplexing and is now incomprehensible.

I can live with a manager getting his tactics wrong, even if it should have been bleeding obvious we'd get overrun in midfield by a fantastic Bayern team. However, leaving it until the 70th minute to change it when it clearly isn't working is fucking stupid. Not impressed with this guy one bit.

 

[Ducado]

This will turn bloody in about 10 minutes.

So it should. We were told he was a master tactician who thought about the game. All I've seen so far is someone who's been extremely fucking naive.

I am running out of patience with him, I have given him plenty of slack but that was shocking, the worst I have seen us play in years, the Spanish lads need to have a chat with him and tell him to shape up or ship out

It only took Mancini 55 minutes to realise we needed a 3-man midfield when we lost 2-0 to Bayern at the Allianz. He put on De Jong for Dzeko.

Silva should have started for Dzeko. Took 70 minutes?

I think this game would have been far different if he had done so. It's very frustrating.

Of course it would have.

Plain as day to see.

Looks completely lost, mean while Mancini got a point away to Juventus.

And we thought we were bad in Europe under Mancini, Its difficult to be positive about Pellegrini with him being so stubborn with this 442 especially with so many of the top teams playing 3 in central midfield

 

[BLUEMATT23]

I'd be amazed if him and Moyes are still working by Christmas.
Sadly the United victory is looking like an isolated performance in a poor campaign thus far.

Wrong Choice of manager for me. I agree Mancini had took us as far as he could, But expected a manager, with a good track record. If you are not successful by the time your sixty or at least knocking on the door, then it,s highly unlikely that your ever gonna be. I know the new guy should be given time , but he is beginning to worry me.<br /><br />-- Wed Oct 02, 2013 9:47 pm --<br /><br />Wrong Choice of manager for me.

We were. That has nothing to do with this.
