You do also realise that the first time they won the league, they did so by an absolute landslide rendering the points deductions absolutely pointless. They won 17 games in a row and finished on 90odd points (iirc). Juventus had been relegated, but how are you going to stop a team which wins 17 league games in a row?
He did fine with Inter. He's doing fine with us. It's not pretty, but we've been in and around the top3 all season. He's pretty much mirroring what he achieved at Inter. We just need patience.
he's not doing fine though, with this squad we should piss 4th and win a cup.
how are we pissing forthICT-Tam said:de niro said:he's not doing fine though, with this squad we should piss 4th and win a cup.
Surely you can see its not as simple as that? As it stands we're "pissing" 4th and are on course to win a cup. What is there to complain about? Not playing nice football? Spuds have a similar goal difference to us because they concede so many. Our defence is the best its been in my lifetime. Give him some support for fuck sake.

cool cat said:So Roberto has been in the job a little over 17 months and a section of our support want him out ?
I think it's quite embarrassing really just shows how little football knowledge these fans have . The mans come in under difficult circumstances and turned us into a professional outfit who are defensively solid and hard to beat . We are in an FACup semi and sitting fourth in the league with a great chance of champions league football yet it still not good enough . If people cared to look at the bigger picture they may be able to see that he has been brought in to build a solid base/platform for us to be very successful in future years to come .
The man is a born winner who with time will turn our club onto a winning club .
Give the guy a break and a real chance ffs

I'll be happy with that, but the bar will be raised again next season.
When Manicini arrived we were having to score 3 goals in a game just to get a draw. He had to try to get us into the top 4 with another man's players and he had the likes of Bellamy undermining him at every opportunity.

This is his first full season in our league and I reckon that should be enough for him to finally settle on the best way to go about things over here. What with all the cup competitions to juggle, the type of teams we play, recovery times, what works and what doesn't in terms of formations and style of play, etc.
Firefighting????????????????????????
You mean the likes of Kompany, De Jong, Barry, Tevez, Given and Bellamy playing some of the best football of his career. It was hardly a weak hand he was dealt.Bert Trautmann's Parachute said:When Manicini arrived we were having to score 3 goals in a game just to get a draw.

I,d agree with that thing was when he arrived we always looked capable of scoring the three goals now we're lucky if we have three shots.Bert Trautmann's Parachute said:When Manicini arrived we were having to score 3 goals in a game just to get a draw.
