Discussion: Potential Pellegrini Replacements {merged}

[Ray78]

Simple answer we started Fernandinho in both games against Crystal Palace and the rags and we lost.

WTF?

There are plenty of players that started those games, why is it Dinho's fault?

The manager had to try and stop the run of defeats. We beat West Brom and West Ham (albeit looking like a team with fragile confidence) with both Lampard and Fernando in the team. And we got the 3 points today despite our players deciding to stop playing after 20 minutes and having two blatant penalty shouts turned down.

With performances like that, it's increasingly difficult to see him keeping his job.

But any manager will have a serious job on their hands with this group of players. With the ball, far too many are clueless when put under any kind of pressure. Without it, they are - individually and collectively - hopeless.

No characters in the dressing room, hardly an Englishman in sight doesn't help, the Balkan beet root club couldn't give a shit for one, nor could Nasri or Yaya, there's about 7 or 8 who give a shit.

has to go. no other outcome will do.

Let's just hope Txiki thinks he's gone or we are Donald Ducked .

I trust that Txiki's decision will be what is in the best interest of Manchester City over the next 5 years, whatever that may be.

Sometimes when you identify a great talent the best thing that you can do is stand behind them and, again let's make this clear, Txiki is acknowledged as the greatest DoF that is currently working today who turned down numerous huge jobs to join City. Barca are the biggest club in the world and they aren't begging him to come back because he's wank.

There's one thing being being the best DoF in the World whilst at an established decade upon decade heavyweight of European football in your homeland and a completely different thing doing it at a club in a foreign country who are light years away from being like a club of Barcas standing.

Just because he did if at Barca doesn't mean it will work at City, we have a team with no fucking backbone of any description and a manager with no fucking clue how to rectify it- of course this clown is managing a team not of his making so he could be given the keys to the toy shop for next season.


Empty seats and fans fucking off with ten minutes to go spoke volumes of what the fan base think of him.

I wish he would just fuck off to be honest .

Not sure how you explain our fanbase being wank and the stadium quiet for the previous ten years then.

I'm sure all those heading out at the 85th minute were thinking to themselves "yeah that Director of Football is shit, I'm off home"

Correct, you cannot struggle against Villa at home, they are dog shite and made us look like dog shite as well, it's not anywhere near good enough, sorry Manuel it's time to go

The atmosphere has gotten worse every year since about 2005 though which is sort of my point.

I mean, I do laugh at some of the mad shit which a single person at the club is somewhat culpable for in the eyes of some fans but "he's the reason for a shit atmosphere" is a cracker when discussing a member of the board. Genuinely you must be able to see why that's funny?

He employed the idiot managing us and bought some of the shit players we are watching, so yes he is partly responsible, the apathy is there for all to see.

Let's be honest here you never have anything positive to say about us, you are either an out and out troll or you are just a miserable sod,

Beat west brom cos they were wank and had 10 for 87 mins. West Ham were a joke. Not being funny Ray you're entitled to your opinion but I have to say many are just plain stupid.

That idiot managing us somehow managed to win the league and cup last year whilst having one of the best ever goal differences in PL history.

Still though "It's Txiki's fault our atmosphere is wank" is bloody brilliant.

 

[themanc]

when are we going to start attacking as a team, and defending as a team.

at 1 stage we had zabaleta playing like a striker. wtf pellegrini . that is piss poor for a manager.

We still yielded 9 points. And thanks for the insult.

Idiot manager and shit players so how do you explain the league table ? Last seasons 2 trophies. OK the last 15 games haven,t been great but nowhere near the disaster you,re trying to make out.

Likewise,

I'm not the one who rates pellers over Jose or thinks that Fernandinho cost us games against palace and Utd mate. I genuinely don't believe you watch the games mate

9pts from 2 games? Really?

 

[br88]

Our decline in the last few months is now getting scary and clearly something major has to be done in the summer. Our team seems to play for about 20 minutes and then the torture begins and we look so ordinary for the rest of the game....something is very wrong. To me the likes of Kolarov (apart from the free kick), Demichelis, Fernando and Lampard are obviously at varying stages of their careers but should be nowhere near the starting line-up of a supposed top team. Yaya and Dzeko will also most probably be leaving and the management have a big task now to maintain City's position as a top four team next season.....the title looks a long way off at the moment.

It is going to be a very interesting summer and so many changes both in and out of the club are needed.

 

[Chi-town blues]

So now Nasri is in the dog house?
fuck holistic bullshit.

He's injured

Time to put mp out of his misery,his choice of midfield against a young fast villa team was awful.Probably one of our worst performances this season

I hope its not the same illness Nastic was infected with.
