Discuss Pellegrini (Pt 3)

Re: Discuss Pellegrini (Pt 2)

Not outdone tactically but psychologically yes - weak manager weak defence - doesn´t drop people and makes poor subs. Added to that we have no leaders on the pitch - result as today/Villa/Cardiff
We really are lacking a mean streak

Who from today would u have not played?

Re: Discuss Pellegrini (Pt 2)

Juries still out

We all slag Moyes off and laugh but we sit a mere two points above them

Plus he had a tougher beginning of season than us.

And didn't spunk money on navas, jovetic and demechelis

Re: Discuss Pellegrini (Pt 2)

whats that..1 win and 1 draw in 5 away games?!

and largely because of defensive frailties which are all too evident as soon as one single player is out of action

simply not good enough

Kompany played at Villa

Proper small time of him not to shake Jose's hand. That's a Fergie/Wenger/Jose thing to do.


Have a word, Khaldoon.

Might have had something to do with Jomo celebrating in the crowd behind the dug out.

Re: Discuss Pellegrini (Pt 2)

wouldn't be upset if he was shown the door at the end of the season tbh, I think he will be as well.Just don't get why some people think he`s so great ? certainly isn't an upgrade on Mancini.

Done little or nothing to suggest he is an upgrade on Mancini really - £80 million more spent for far worse results so far. Hope he can turn that around

Re: Discuss Pellegrini (Pt 2)

So far he definitely looks like a downgrade on Mancini.
He has turned the best defence in the league into an open gate and he really isn't very good with the tactical changes.

That's the problem, we had a great defence, now its shit, bought cheap options, should of bought big in defence, not happy,

WBA and Stoke tough?

Two points is still two points, and at least we are playing well. You are not. City controlled that game, and it's just Kompany's absence and injury to other central defenders which is leading to a series of soft goals. Problems that can be resolved

I don't see how Utd can resolve their problems which are multiple.

We'll still finish way above you

Garcia for a start.
Would not have brought Navas or Kolorov on.
Milner instead of Navas at least.
Why leave the best CF we have had in ages on the bench.

Demichellis had a decent game - however to start him today in his first game was very high risk.
Garcia - I shall say no more.
Clichey over Kolarov ?
To bring on Navas as a sub at that point in the game - discuss:
Do you want me to go on?

Re: Discuss Pellegrini (Pt 2)

I think he is doing a fine job tactically. We play good football and the team is quite well balanced. Individual errors are the problem and may endanger his job come the end of the season, which is a shame - because the foundations of something very special are there in this City team with just a few tweaks (and possibly some personnel changes in our half of the pitch...) and a stronger mentality.
