Everybody keeps going on about Mancini 'losing the players', 'the players not wanting to play for him', 'the players don't like him' etc., etc., BUT
those same players are paid an absolute fortune to play for MANCHESTER CITY, not for Mancini. So why don't they get up off their overpaid backsides and do the job they are paid to do?
I had a headteacher who nobody had any respect for, we all detested him but we didn't go in every day saying 'I'm not going to work for this guy' we had a job to do that we were paid reasonably well for and we did it. We knew that our results mattered and not just to us but to the students we taught.
So the players should know that their results matter, not just to them but to the fans and the club that pays them handsomely, no matter what they think about the manager.
As for Stuart Brennan, how long have people on here been saying that he is a closet rag? So why are you believing him now?
I knew I should have stayed away, I managed half an hour to do some housework but the pull of this flaming Bluemoon thread was toooo strong for me!!! :-)
Using that analogy, what would happen if a maths teacher was made to teach chemistry?
They would do their best, but that is not where they should be. Same as some of the players that Bobby has managed, play your players where they excell at, not try to make masters , Jacks of all trades.
Brennan, as far as i know has never been in the closet about being a rag, but he is a journalist first and foremost.
