There seems to be no accounting for the opposition under Manuel
He sets us up the same way and can't see the error of his way or learn from mistakes even though most if not all the fans can..... He's destroyed the club and we've trodden water as a result
Again, as another poster said, this sums the club up waiting for Pep who could be a total flop (we will see)
Lets not forget with the help of Brian Kidd that's why the media push for him to stay...
Leeds
Blackburn
Portsmouth say no more.
I'm starting to fear that Sterling could be the biggest mistake we have made as a club in recent years,for the money we paid you'd of thought a first touch would of come with it.
Who's idea was it to send Roberts out on loan? They need to take a good look at themselves.
That would be Marwood and the x rag youth team coach..

Hope soPerfect example yesterday, Kun is screaming for the ball, Hart is taking his time as usual and by the time he kicks long to Kun, the ball is easily intercepted by (I think) Simpson. Common fucking sense evades him at times, despite his class as a keeper.
I don't think Pep will judge his abilities alone however, I think he'll also assess his character and his influence on the dressing room. There's no doubting Joe's popularity amongst fans, players & staff but what if the amount of say he has behind the scenes is detrimental? City's own cabal so to speak of Hart, Touré & Vinnie? Club legends and fan favourites undoubtedly but Pep will probably need to put his foot down when he arrives.
been poking through the ashes of yesterday monster disaster and it could have been a lot worst than it really was we been here before arsenal away Mario sending off and beaten Liverpool away stevie G team talk and beaten and in all of them we was gone no coming back from here
but I have a feeling we was looking at the bigger picture yes a battle lost yesterday but the war can still be won we have done it before from worst things than 13 games and only 6 points behind so lets show this is Manchester city we fight to the end and like stevie G team talk vardy putting up the 0.3 fingers up its all the team talks needs from now on pin that picture up on the wall
and TOGETHER WE FIGHT TO THE END this is Manchester city it happens

Yep, I can go with that. I also wondered was Vardy getting a bit ahead of himself with the fingers. And let's not forget the 'we're going to win the league' chants. Another echo of the past?

As I've said before & got endless shit for, I believe that the injury situation & the struggles the team has had are all part of a complete lack of planning (or management) by Pellegrini.
Regarding injuries, I've been repeatedly shouted down when mentioning that, for at least a year, maybe more, we should have been using kids regularly & getting them on the pitch, in order to supplement the squad. This would lessen the fatigue, physical & mental, of the first team squad & add much needed energy & enthusiasm to the whole setup.
We saw yeseterday, in a game where we were struggling like fuck & had gone to pieces, that Celina was able to come on, cope with it, & actually look better than some of the senior players, & produce the best cross of the game. He was able to 'do a job' for the first team. That doesn't mean he will become David Silva, he might not make it at all, but it does prove that he doesn't NEED to be David Silva, in order to come on the pitch & fill a position. He was able to do that & make a better contribution, than Silva actually did on the day. That is not unusual in football, it's bog standard.
He is one of about ten or more kids who could imo do the same, & many could have been doing it for at least 12 months. He is nowhere near the toughest, the fastest nor the best performer in the past few seasons, amongst those kids. Yet he was able to come on in the middle of that fucking farce, v a grafting team of adults & pass the ball perfectly.
Imagine how many hard slogging minutes where players pick up strains that contribute to injuries, could have been eliminated by introducing a few kids late in games ? Imagine if we then found one or two were actually quite good & could use them more ? Maybe even a matchwinner or two if we're lucky ? Pellegrini has been lazy, unadventurous & incompetent in this respect & it has made our club less efficient than it should be.
Now that's gone & we find ourselves in this fucking mess he has created, hows about he accepts we are struggling (especially with Silva injured again) & decides to actually MANAGE the fucking team, to get some results ?
How about he puts out a balanced FIT team, with a game plan & a defensive shape in order to COMPETE in games, both tactically & energetically, insted of believing we are Real fucking Madrid with Zidane, & can just roll ever **** over ? Do what normal managers do, look at the oppo, put out a solid, well drilled side designed to hurt them AND TO STOP THEM, & see if Aguero etc win it for us ?
Or does he just think that Lecester, Stoke etc have better players than us & therefore can outplay us on any given day ?

You Sir, talk a lot of sense. Excellent post. "Actually MANAGE the team" sums it up perfectly.

Hang on. You've just slated Sterling!
There is a difference between criticising a player than abusing him, and i think i am entitled to my opinion, and truth be told he hasnt been consistent enough or has he? I really hope he will come out good though but i doubt he will survive the pep revolution.
I was told yesterday he was the only player to show desire, may be that,s right but When you pay 45m+ for a player you dont pay for desire you pay for results, if its about desire only than put an academy lad up there and he will probably show more desire

If he had been playing for Leicester, he would have torn us an even bigger arsehole.
