If you don't start tubthumping about Mancini on here when we lose or you're a clown or some kind of doomonger. Its hardly surprising that I am starting to spend more time in the cellar where people do think a bit more laterally.

Hahaha the irony of that post is awesome.....you know the thinking part

The lateral, calm thinking of the cellar (lol) vs the kneejerk shite that is the original post in this thread. Is there a facepalm image that suits this? There should be.

Exactly plenty of lateral calm thinking in the OP.....I thought it a very strange response he obviously has worked himself into a right frenzy after tonight's result
 
Re: Is now the time to consider Mancini's tenure at the clubs

I swear, every time we lose a game, some dickhead wants to change managers. NOT HAPPENING. If I need to explain this to you, then its your issue.

No, but he makes mistakes. His record in Europe with Inter and now City is appalling.

And there's no sign he's prepared to change i.e be pragmatic or defensive away from home in Europe. He approaches European games as if they are Premiership games, but in reality we are not favourites in all these games so we have to be tactically disciplined to compete - we don't do that. We just throw caution to the wind.

We are not perfect, and neither is Mancini, therefore constructive criticism is fair. If not now, then when?
 
Re: Is now the time to consider Mancini's tenure at the clubs

I think everyone should cut the OP a bit of slack. We've just come out of a defeat and we're all feeling downbeat, and what does he do? Posts that to give us all a laugh! And taking a load of abuse for it! Fair play in my opinion, well done OP
 
Re: Is now the time to consider Mancini's tenure at the clubs

Okay,we can still mathematically make the knockout stages.But for fuck's sake that was/is the minimum requirement with the squad we have.Only an idiot expects
us to win the thing at the second time of asking.The whole side had a stinker tonight,frankly a result like this has been coming all season.Mancini seems to be getting the tactics all wrong from the get go,and then throws on some game changing subs to save the day.It didn't work tonight in the CL,and won't work in the Prem against better sides.We react only after we go behind,with the personnel at his disposal we should be taking the game to the opposition.
I don't want him out,but I'm concerned.

let mancini's managers worry about that. let the sheiks accountants worry about their finances.

Maybe if RM had got his top summer transfer targets then we would be sitting pretty in the CL ? Perhaps he realised the current squad wasn't good enough and this year's signings haven't improved us (when any of them are fit to play that is).

Perhaps we should wait and see them play first. And give them more than one game as well. Silva was poor in his first few games
 
Re: Is now the time to consider Mancini's tenure at the clubs

Alex Ferguson became a manager in 1974. Alex Ferguson first won the European Cup (CL) in 1999. United spent a LOT of money in Ferguson's tenure (1986-), more than any other English club in his early days.

Arsene Wenger became a manager in 1984, Wenger first won the European Cup (CL) in... uh... he hasn't yet. Arsenal had possibly the best domestic team ever assembled and Wenger couldn't do it.

Roberto Mancini became a manager in 2001, Mancini hasn't won the Champions League (European Cup) yet... but is 11 years into his coaching career.

Only Mourinho can really guarantee you European success within x years and he is struggling to deliver it at the world's biggest club with the world's most expensive team, so nothing is certain.

Dont really care about the chumps league..

Mancini won us the prem league and we leathered the scum at the swamp...

If it was up to me, he would be the manager for the next 10 years.

Prem all day for me...the champs league is a bridge to far at the moment, the groups we have been drawn in haven't even allowed us to grow into the comp....tonight's result for Ajax was there biggest and will probably stay there biggest of this season, for me I don't know why as we are relative new comers when it comes to The champs league....patience is what is required, we will win it one day but it might take 10 years

But Give me the prem 5 times in those 10 years and I for one would be well happy and throw in a couple of FA cups just for good measure, now that is more than achievable with RM in charge, so to think RM should go based on Europe is a joke

Constructive criticism is one thing, we can work with that, but the only suggestion put forward was "does he have a future here". I'd say yes he does.
 
Re: Is now the time to consider Mancini's tenure at the clubs

Personally I think he has lost the plot a little this season. TInkering like mad, trying new systems, confusing the hell out of the the defence. There has been absolutely no stability, no continuity of selection. These are all things that Mancini has been poor with this season that he didn't do last season.

I'm not too sure why he's turned into the tinker man, but if he carries on then he will be definitely testing the owner's patience I would think.

For me, to be a big club, you need stability, and in the main to play to your strengths and let the opponents worry about you. I feel we have played the opposite this year, it's as if he's had far too much time to think about everything and he's mulled it over and over in his mind and come up with all these confusing tactical solutions.

They haven't worked, he's just confused the players, they look totally all at sea defensively, and if the rumours of that defensive coach who can't speak English are true, then that's another shocking decision.

Apart from that, he's perfect.

After what can only be described as an humiliating night in champions league football for the club. The question I am now asking which I guessing is in back of a lot of peoples minds is this it for Macini? Is this as far as he can take us?

I think we all know why he was shown the door at Inter, and this competition has been his archilles heal? Personally I have been questioning where we go from here or a few weeks, and perhaps the coincidence that we have brought in an ex Barca honcho might be a clue for who we are looking at if the trigger is pulled.

But even if Mancini can bring us another premier league trophy this season is that gonna be enough, personally I don't think so. Right now barring a miracle of biblical proportions we are out of the champions league and that just is not good enough.

Oh if Mancini can bring us just another premier trophy will that be enough shake my fucking head till it DROPS OFF!
 
Re: Is now the time to consider Mancini's tenure at the clubs

Cant believe this has come up again, just because of a bad result so what!!!, would you like to go back to where we was not in Europe at all, we are only just starting to build our european experience,it comes through playing in this type of league year after year, we are playing against opponents who have played this kind of football for decades, cant believe the meltdown...............
 
Re: Is now the time to consider Mancini's tenure at the clubs

I think there's a few players who might want to consider their future's before Mancini considers his judging by tonight's non performance.
