Discussion: Manuel Pellegrini 2015/16

[welsh_andy]

we going backwards and we stuck with him till summer at least, but hopefully its looking sunnier over the horizon unless that ruskie dangles a big fat carrot in front of pep, though cant see pep going there, so happy days will return

 

[DelToro]

Disrespectful motherfucker.

And he's that as well.

Good spot.

 

[Balti]

It's really not hard to figure out. When he took over we were defensively sound under Mancini and that carried through for that season. The more he's got his claws into the squad the worse we have gotten

Well our defence would certainly be better under Bobby than this shambles

Our defence will be grand when Vinny is fit, although Mangala and Otamendi should have stepped up at this stage.

Shame Vinny aint fit then, again

What is it then in your opinion?

My guess for the last 18 months would be between 50-55%.

 

[Blue Smarties]

Well he won it once and everyone knew what happened the day of the final against Wigan, apart from you it seems. What's Manuel done in the FA cup? Bugger all is the answer. As for not getting over the line the season after winning the league well Pellegrini is going for the double there.

One area where Pellegrini has done better is in Europe.

Even then if we're playing silly buggers we could argue Manuel has had the easier groups and should be doing better.

Marginally so.

We conceded 111 in 133 games under Bob and so far under Pellegrini, we have conceded 94 in 93.

Crucially though its about points won and Pellegrini just shades that along with goals scored.

Fag paper between them though in reality.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Bob suffered the exact same thing Pellegrini is doing now in that players are just not performing despite brilliant spells of football under them both.

Im genuinely fucking angry at the players for last night who for 20 mins ripped Arsenal a new arse yet for the other 70 mins, sat back and basically allowed them to bully them.

Fuck all to do with tactics, it was players turning the tap on and off as they please and it needs to be sorted once and for all as Pep will suffer the same if it isnt.

Really? Delph on the left wing? Two centre halves with Ya Ya the Invisible stationed in front of them, despite this MO having been tried and epically failed repeatedly in the last 18 months?
