Ferran Soriano & Txiki Begiristain

[bernabias home shirt]

Don't get me started on this duo!

I can honestly say I would rather be trapped in a lift with Baconface rather that this pair of deceitful clowns. Absolutely hate them and always will for their conniving treasonous undermining of not only Mancini but ourselves as fans!

In all fairness we should by any reasonable thinking have won both the Premier League and the FA Cup last year. From the moment they arrived however they set about a plan to remove Mancini at all costs even to the point that at the risk of Mancini winning the Cup, they contrived to set the wheels in motion that allowed the press to know Mancini was to lose his job the evening before a Cup Final.

Anyone who believes any different is actually as dumb as this pair want you to be!

I'm expecting loads of replies saying I'm talking crap, we've signed great players, the training ground is nice and the ground is to be extended! In reality however, all this was going to happen anyway and the only thing I have heard Soriano talk about is a football team in bloody New York!

Facts are they, and them alone, are 100% the reason we are currently trophyless and they and their yes-man Pellegrini are the reasons we will remain so!

And further more, I had this pair worked out very early on. In fact I had a thread running about these two called 'Has the solution become the problem - Ferran and Txiki' in which I was ridiculed as knowing f*ck all!

Of course I won't embarrass the idiots on that thread just know by quoting them, but they like many others will have plenty of time during the summer next year to mull over Ferran and Txiki themselves, if, as it kooks likely, this year becomes a washout and the likes of Silva, Aguero, Yaya and Kompany want Champions League again.

You're about as out of step as UEFA is on racism.

He's got a point on begiristain

Re: Ferran Soriano & Txiki Begiristain

It's the same after every result, whether we win or lose. Either we're going to be be worldbeaters and bulldoze everything before us, or, we're absolute shite and we're going to have trouble making the Europa League places and the whole management from the boardroom down want fucking off forthwith. It's getting predictable and boring. What some on here need to do is stop wobbling and look at the bigger picture. We're doing great financially, which is the biggest precondition to success in this age. We can all see what was happening last season. We had stagnated under a manager who had done great for us but couldn't seem to take us any further than he already had done. We've made the change we needed to make, let's see what happens. We've played some cracking football this season, got some great results, but things obviously need to be improved away from home which i am sure the management team are working on as we speak. We may not at the end of the season win the league but just as likely we might win the league or another trophy that we are still in contention for. This for me is the spice of following City. The lows as well as the highs. If we don't expect too much here and now, we'll enjoy the season a lot more and the success will inevitably come. So stop sniping at the management, get behind them and watch City go from strength to strength.

You don't expect too much but guarantee success will inevitably come?

Hate to see you being over-reachingly ambitious ;)

As i said in my original post, i tend to look at the bigger picture and see which way we are heading as a club. Nowhere in my post do i guarantee any kind of success although when i survey the landscape i do feel very confident of it.

I was only joking but you did say "success will inevitably come"

Let's face it, if Mancini had had the respect of the dressing room at that point Txiki could have had dinner with Mourinho and we'd have still won the cup final.

Txiki nailed another nail into a coffin that Mancini had hammered plenty into already.

 

[decmancity]

The players are the ones who go out there and win the titles and the FA Cup's.

If they cared that much or had any respect for Mancini they should have gone out and flattened all before them making it impossible to sack Mancini.

Back to back title winner and two FA cup's in three years would not have seen Mancini sacked.

End of.

If you are questioning the motives of Txiki and Soriano you are in turn questioning the judgement of Khaldoon and Sheikh Mansour. Two very astute people and by all accounts business men.

Do they make many bad decisions? especially ones of this level and at their cost?

Doubt it.

I take it you have documented facts to back up your allegations?

The facts are clear, the Barca boys were hired to change the managerial model and they delivered. Mancini, a trophyless season and a wasted summer window were the price. We're still waiting for the payoff.

I wouldn't bite, its what he wants, we both know that that some are only here to troll.
