Mancini at the game tonight

I loved Mancini during his time hear but I fear we're getting in to a blue tinted specs situation. He's done little of note since he left and he managed us at the time when we really were out spending other clubs. With the squad we had you could argue that we shouldn't have had to wait until the 94th minute of the last game of the season to win the league. There were a fair few poor performances the following year and refusing to sell Balotelli despite knowing he wanted out and then missing out on Van Persie was a dreadful error. Initially Bobby did a great job of whipping City into shape but falling out with virtually every senior player was idiotic. In any other walk of like a manager who could neither manage upwards nor downwards would have been given the boot.

There's a very stupid gobshite next to me in 118 who believes everything went wrong because Txiki didn't like Mancini because he wasn't a yes man. It seems more the other way round. Mancini didn't like being told the facts of life and just refused to accept limitations around FFP.

If Mancini gets a song I'll join in because he earned it. if it happens it will probably come not long after we go behind. I'd rather sing Guardiola's name though. I reckon he may have a tougher job on his hands than Mancini ever did.

Very unfair. Mancini turned us into winners.
 
Have to agree with kazzydeyna, but i loved mancini, yes spent money built a squad with a spine, some his, some hughes, even pierces signings, he moulded them into winners, i was too young in late 60's to appreciate mercer and alison and waiting30+ years for success makes him a god in my eyes abd i'm an atheist !
