Mancini 'arrogant and vain'

The best manager have the same temperament as Bobby. Since when are managers soft and cuddly.

You apparently do not understand the difference between soft and cuddly and being able to inspire the players with other measures than hanging them in public and believing you are Julius Cesar. You have no comprehension of where loyalty is born.

The Kit men are a part of City and an important part as they travel with the team and play their part in the whole City family. The lad has an opinion of Mancini and he is entitled to that. Now watch the Premier League presentation from last year, as Mancini walks out and shakes hands with former players and back room staff, you see Les Chapman stood away from the front line as Mancini walks passed and immediately step forward when he has gone by, the whole kit team must have had the same opinion of Mancini.

If anyone gave him a bollocking it would be Chappy. The lad left City because he was a Sunderland fan and got the opportunity to go there. Who wouldn't do that? He did very well at City and got all the little bonuses the players got, suits, watches, even a Premier League winners medal. So I disagree with that point.

It's obvious that Mancini was arrogant because look at how he treated Panty. Played every cup game, even the semi at Wembley against Chelsea. So why was he dropped for an "Easier" game? Probably because of his naive interview before the final. If that's not being arrogant by Mancini, what is? Would we have won with Panty? Who knows, but we didn't win with Hart did we?

Something changed this season. Whether it was because we won the league he thought he could ride roughshod over everyone I'm not sure. Maybe because he didn't get the players that were reported targets he deliberately left out the ones who did come. And he couldn't get performances from some players who we paid a lot of money for. Why was this?

If we get a manager in who gets our players to play to their full potential, there will be no stopping us.

Roberto Mancini 'arrogant and vain' says former Manchester City kit man

Stephen Aziz, the former kit man at Manchester City, has criticised Roberto Mancini following his sacking as manager, describing him as "arrogant, vain and self-centred" in one of a series of tweets that were later deleted from his Twitter account on Tuesday morning.

Mancini finally lost his job on Monday evening with one reason being his divisive management style that had upset some members of staff. Aziz, who left for Sunderland last summer, tweeted: "Arrogant, vain, self-centred no manners ignorant just some of the daily traits really made going into work a daily grind!! #karma".

Another read: "Not my style to come in here and start to bad mouth someone but this guy was really a piece of work!!!". He added: "Fans don't get to see what really goes on and day 2 day running 2 years there seeing him every day was hard work getting a 'good morning'".

But he praised the club itself, saying: "Mcfc on the other hand what a great club to work for some great players and staff nice down to earth ppl loved working there!!! #MCFC".

Mancini's camp declined to comment.
City's fans have reacted with dismay to the sacking with Kevin Parker, general secretary of the Manchester City Supporters Club, suggesting that any lack of harmony behind the scenes was a side issue. "I think they are looking for peace, harmony and happiness in the camp. That would suggest that under Roberto that isn't the case," he said.

"We all hear rumours and hear stories about it not being a particularly happy camp. But as fans our interest is a successful football team, success and trophies, and under Roberto that is what we got.

"Of course we are disappointed we have not won a trophy this season but in the eyes of City fans, that is not failure. When you have waited as long as we have for trophies, then the three Roberto has brought in three years are certainly keeping us happy."

Parker added: "It is unbelievable. The club have said the targets set haven't been met, but finishing second in the Premier League and losing finalists in the FA Cup would suggest those targets might have been unachievable. Does that mean we had to win the Premier League and win the FA Cup? I'm not sure."

It means (shirley) that whoever comes in has to have put silverware in the cabinet by this time next year or he will not have met targets and will be on his way. It is no way to run things.

Or that a manager should try not to piss everyone off at the club. Players and execs alike......

I know it's difficult for a Mancini fan to understand.

I fail to see how choosing your best goalkeeper over your second best keeper can be viewed as arrogant. Harsh maybe, under the circumstances, but it is in no way anything resembling arrogant. Perhaps you need to check out the meaning of the word in a dictionary.

I am. But it is clear that he alienated the players and the board.

I like the guy, but I don't have to work with him. But I hear none of the players are shedding any tears at his dismissal, including the captain.

I'm not really sure why people are dismissing this Aziz blokes opinion because "he was just an assistant kitman". An assistant kitman will spend a great deal of time in and around the first team squad, on matchdays, on away trips etc. He'll have had, over the previous two seasons, many opportunities to be in the company of Roberto Mancini, along with everyone else involved in City's first team, the other backroom staff, the players etc. His opinions on Mancini, when it comes to personal interactions, whilst being just his opinions when all is said and done, are still valid ones and shouldn't just be disguarded due to his job title. He had the opportunity to interact with Roberto Mancini, and he found him to be self centred, arrogant etc in those interactions. Rumours of Mancini's poor relationship with many people, players included, would lead you to believe that perhaps this assistant kit man's opinion isn't too far away from the truth.
