1. MH and the 7 draws certainly didnt help and were his ultimate undoing....dropping 14 pts (most of which should have been won) was poor...especially the home games fulham burnley and hull. The loss at Spurs was a particular low point and we wre woeful in that game.
2. RM - there have been games where we should have gone out to win and he clearly hasnt gone out to do this (regardless of what he says/claims)...noteably liverpool at home, utd at home (plus the CC games), arsenal away, everton away (which we lost and were very very poor in), hull (away and stoke (away)
Mancini has a chance to set everything right that he and MH have messed up this season.......its still in our hands so if RM gets it right in the next few games then great.....
BUT he must send his team out to win....NO EXCUSES!!!!....., no setting up his midfiled to not go beyond the half way line, no 3 defensive midfielders, leading to isolation of tevez and ade, no reliance on tevez or ade to come up with some moment of brilliance......we must attack all the 3 teams we have to play....we are at home for two of them and if he sets up with such a defensive unit and outlook as he has done in tHE last two games then i think he deserves to lose out on 4th
