Discuss Pellegrini

[bobmcfc]

It comes as little surprise at the people looking for a war again.

Pellegrini is a class act,id have hoped he'd have been a little further down the road with clearing up the mess,however,all will be good,i've no worries.

Todays shower - A blessing in disguise maybe?

It's never a blessing to be beaten and outplayed by a side with a 10th of the quality and with 100 times more belief and pride. Our players have absolutely took the piss out of us today, they didn't give us anything at all. They just turned up all billy big bollocks and expected Cardiff to roll over. Maybe bobby had it right, they need a rollicking and a good kick up the arse because they get paid an absolute mint to wear that shirt and run through walls. Man management is all very well and good but when you have to work with vapid, pampered arseholes like that day in day out it's very hard to keep a lid on your temper.

I am fuming as are alot of blues. We pandered them too much when we should have let roberto ship them out . Now I hope manuel has the spuds to do it

Whilst I agree that Cardiff played with a lot more passion and desire you are way off the mark to suggest we got outplayed. All Cardiff's goals came against the run of play and they were happy just to put 10 men behind ball. The fact we bossed possession seems to suggest we didn't get outplayed.

Maybe outplayed was unfair, but in reality if they gave a shite they could have pulled their shirts over their heads and won that game if they could have been arsed. They let us down, bobby down and now pellegrini.

It's wrong to say that was an away display from last season.
No, it was even orse. It was Wolves away from even earlier, the day Micah made Jarvis look like Messi.
Unimpressed to say the least with the manager today. Had no effect at half time, got every substitution drastically wrong.
Why the fuck were Aguero & Silva, our two worst players by a mile, still on the field?
Why remove Navas just as the game was opening up?
Why remove Fernandinho when a foothold was needed and Yaya was being a typically lazy, sideways, non-tackling Shithouse.
Nasri against a hard working team. Why?
Lazy, complacent, slow, spineless, ponderous, cowardly, physically cowardly.
I remember a multiple trophy winner getting sacked fir that kind of display.
Too many automatic choices, undroppable cruisers taking the piss.
Hart, Yaya, Silva etc need a spell on the bench away from home. Teach them humility if nothing else.
Can someone explain how this is progress?

I agree 100% and I'm not confident this type of performance will be a one off this season. We have much tougher tests than Cardiff away to come so no point in blindly having faith it will be turned around in a short space of time because it won't. A draw away at Stoke would be acceptable to some on here based on what happened today but it wouldn't be acceptable for that very same reason.

Sept/Oct looks a far more difficult period now:

Stoke V City
City V rag wankers
Aston Villa V City
City V Everton
West Ham V City
Chelsea V City

This new manager could be under some serious pressure well before Xmas if todays result is anything to go by.

Are we going to buy a defender? Letting Toure go isn't looking like the best idea we've ever had.

I don't think we could have got him to stay but it was glaringly obvious we needed cover in that area considering the loss of nastasic and then vinny. And when you consider what a prize whopper Garcia is in defence ( I raised my concern before the match and was assured Micah would play with lescott) then you have all the data you need to see the need for a good defender

If we don't improve in how we played today I see 3 defeats in those fixtures and that's us battling hard for 4th spot

They were a bloody clueless pairing pre season as well.

Bloody hell there is some over the top reactionary nonsense on here tonight

I agree whole heartedly with the two posts above, it seemed like we went back in time to last season, yes we outplayed them for long periods, but yet again tactically the wrong subs were put on, Navas should not have been taken off, we were playing against a hard working defence and we needed to stretch them after Dzeko scored that fantastic goal. I guess we don't have to talk any further about our defence

 

[blue 68]

Not a great result but maybe not too bad a time for the players to realise a 4/1 salary ratio means nothing when 51 years of history needs a rewrite .
Not worried .
Just hope this manager's influence is understood and that changes in players attitude and application is self driven.
It is, just a bad day at the office.

Whilst you make some good points mate, these are things that the manager may well have only just discovered for himself today. Let's see how he sets us up and manages our next away game, you may be pleasantly surprised.
