End of Season Party vs Arsenal?!

For me Pelligrini has been a disaster for this club, he took a team with a real winning mentality built by Mancini over 2-3 years, into a team that appears demoralized and lacking in fight.
Yep. I remember that winning mentality well against Wigan that year - and plenty other games as well
 
Your lack if knowledge is astounding. If we don't have CL football, we'll have the EL on a Thursday night which will really dent our PL challenge.

You really think that I didn't realise that we would have Europa League football? Or d'you think I'm working on the basis if we do end up with Europa league football Pep will toss it off or use it as a tournament to play kids/squad players in and concentrate on storming the league?

Think the answer is fairly obvious.

The further we get away from Bobby's turgid last season, the more of a triumph it becomes. I've got such fond memories of finishing bottom of our CL group, winning nothing, watching a team of players with no respect for the manager going through the motion whilst said manager was scrapping with his players on the training pitch when he wasn't sat in press conferences trying to fight the entire board.

Yeah we've taken a massive backwards step from there.

FFS.. both he, the players and the fans knew he was getting sacked in the morning. Hardly conducive to a good performance.

Look Mancini took a team that while well funded had won nothing for over 30 years and not won the league for over 40. He steadily improved the team in his first year, broke the trophy hoodoo the next and his second full season won the league. The next year I admit was poor and the reasons have been done to death on here.

Pellegrini took over a team that had already won the biggest prizes in English football. Again well funded and I won´t discredit him by saying it was Mancini´s team. With Negredo et al we played some great stuff. But since then despite more money spent domestically we have been very poor, and being honest it´s only the CL run this season that bestows any credit on either him or the players.
 
If Pelle doesn't give us the C.L lets give him this,his send off present...

Another one of Pellegrini's qualities; how many times have City been in the press these last three years regarding players falling out, fighting at training, players slagging the manager, manager slagging the players and even on live tv, players moaning about not playing, wanting to leave or broken promises? None.
