Discussion: Manuel Pellegrini 2015/16

[Didsbury Dave]

It was good to see the manager give Yaya a bit of a rest for a league match (and bring him on at the right time). Hopefully he is beginning to see that despite his obvious quality on the ball starting with Yaya for every single match has been causing us problems. Decent confidence building result/performance and a whole week off for a change, we have to kick on now IMO if we are going to win the league.

It was very good indeed to see that. Norwich and yesterday and we had total midfield domination without Ya Ya leaving a hole. It's going to be difficult managing his enormous ego but he has to be used sparingly like that from now on.

Hopefully the penny has dropped at last. I still always have the worry that when push comes to shove he will revert to type and just relentlessly start Yaya even when we have two matches a week.
