does mancini have a clue?

[bluemonkey71]

Why the fuck is he setting up Hadrians Wall every game with DJ/Barry/Vieira and some skill with Johnson.

Its just too defensive IMO and we lack creativity.

Listened to it on the radio and Vieira was getting ripped about his passing/fitness...

Come on we are better than this...

WHY THE FUCK IS IRELAND SAT ON THE BENCH

5 Live commentator just described the team selection as amatuerish , the performance slow and lacking in any width until SWP came on and but for the officials we would have got what we deserved which was nothing.

Good spirit and effort shown and not a bad point but boy do we have to improve now to stay up there.

Re: Mancini or Frank Clark - Who had less of a clue?????

Answers on a postcard

For me Mancini edges it after what can only be described a comedy subs in the past few games!

Who had less of a clue? Someone with an IQ of 40, or the utter halfwit of a poster Benarbia? Oh, the latter. No surprise there, then.

Yeah, but how many other teams have played against 10 men?!

So it was'nt an attempt at fooling us. You genuinely believe that drivel you posted. Tell me how often were you there when Frank the maestro Clark was in charge. Cue "season ticket holder since August 65 mate, never missed a game home and away. Frank was just unlucky blah blah fuckin blah"

If you honestly believe that FC was anywhere near Mancini (or for that matter Mark Hughes) league you need sectioning. Knee jerk reactions on this site are really getting up my f***ing nose.

We'd have lost this game with hughes in charge,simple.I must admit I was pretty annoyed when the game finished but I still think we wold have lost with hughes but I know you want to be entertained when we lose.

having weathered the first 25, we got back into it and were much the better team than stoke. giving the goal away was criminal, and really knocked us back, but we were the only team in it until the final seconds. and they were wrong about the disallowed goal, too, it was clearly a foul. we weren't great but Radio 5 were only interested in making it seem like a disaster. they were far too negative about viera too, they said he did NOTHING positive for the team at all, truth is, he had some bad moments but for most of the second half he was the only city player who was passing the ball around and probing the stoke defence.

Don't know what game you watched, but it was definately not a foul. Stoke player jumped first, Given tried to bash into him, got nowhere near the ball. Stoke player kept his arms down, jumped straight upwards, Shay ran into him. If it had been the other way you would be fucking fuming. They were robbed tonight and you know it. We were a disgrace.

Agree that it wasn't a foul - remember Campbell's x2 international non-goals? They get given, end of.

It's also good to see a City fan admit it was a refereeing mistake, even though I am happy it went our way.

i agree with this, we did not play well but neither did stoke a draw was a fair result, but we should be looking for a more positive result when the oppo are down to 10 men with 35/40mins to go
this is why the result feels like a bad one and the media will be slating us and putting a negative spin on it for that reason

in the cold light of day we gained a point at a tough place to go, we had important players missing, we have gone 4th with a game in hand, and have still got a result even though we played badly, so tonight was not all bad
