Manchester City close on Pellegrini (merged)

[nijinsky's fetlocks]

Great idea. Adopt some of your own advice. Move on from this Forum.

Just because I don't bum Mancini I have to move on????? Pretty pathetic don't you think, I'm heard some news over the weekend and posted it??? No crime there!!!

I don't like Mancini and would be happy to see him replaced, again no crime there!!!!!!! Its my fucking opinion and I'm not asking you to like, i'm asking you just to respect it

All of a sudden, we're stinkin rich and you have to expect us to go one better each season.

With respect, that is an utterly ludicrous expectation, because no football team in the history of the game has ever had constant incremental exponential success, regardless of wealth.
It just doesn't work that way, otherwise you would win everything every year, or view the season as a backwards step.
Where would this permanently-on-the-up team go after winning the Champions League?
Win the World Cup?
The fucking Ashes?
Teams have troughs and peaks - it just seems to me that most folk expect permanent peaks at present, and that would be nice, but then so would oral relief off Angelina Jolie tonight, but that is equally unlikely.

Mancini has done a bloody good job. Don't want him to get sacked and we have to realize that Mancini hardly got his A-Listed targets last year,lets give him his target he wants and then judge his performance next year.

Who do you believe has had the better season this year, Benitez or Mancini?

Mancini,considering we started the season with Aguero getting injured in the very first game, plus ACON factor and with Merlin being inconsistent this season and ofcourse us getting Sinclair,Garcia instead of Hazard, Martinez.

Chelsea had world clubs comp, Uefa cup, Fa cup and the league.

he is doing the best with what he has and hasn't had the luxury of choosing players to fit systems. The bought Ba fair enough but his task was to get Torres scoring first and foremost. Ba just helped out the depth of squad and gave competition to Torres.

There is no way anyone associated with the club, that would have access to this info would tell some loud mouth anus.

Nothing comes out of the club anymore

Some people get tip offs on transfers due to the places they work etc, but a new manager? do me a fucking favour

The fact that the odds have come down means fuck all as well, if talkshite report in then some some arsehole somewhere would have put a bet on, hence the odds come down

I reckon we'd have a good pop at the Ryder Cup.

I must've missed something on this thread. Why are we discussing Benitez?

There are more parties who can leak a story than the club, you know.

The first leak of this story came from Chile, Pellegrini's home country, back in February.

With respect, if you're gonna copy and paste my posts, then I'd appreciate it if you'd publish a little more of it, so it makes a bit more sense to the reader, rather than try and make me look like an utter clueless numpty.

As I see it this forum is full of a lot of very ungrateful people in light of the trophies Mancini has delivered, he obviously did not get his intended targets last window for reasons only he will know and to judge him on ONLY finishing second behind the Rags as failure is pathetic, I only hope that those of you who want him out don't get what you wish for because sometimes the grass isn't always greener.

Because it's a question than will provide answers as to why Mancini is below par.

Benitez is point of ridicule here somewhat yet he's bettered Mancini's achievements if he wins the Uefa Cup and he's done so with fans who hate him, players likes Terry who undermine him (hence why he got benched) and has made the most out of what he has at the club rather than bemoaning not having this that and the other.

City come first always and Mancini serv3s out club. We owe him nothing but appreciation. However that appreciation should be just that rather than a reason for him to stay. A manager who won't be kept on by Chelsea has done imo better than our manager yet apparently Mancini must be saved at all costs and yet Rafa is a clown (I don't want Rafa but I think it's a good point to make to show this ridiculous sentimentality biased thought process.).
