Mancini On Soriano

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Pathetic and typical Mancini.

Blaming everyone except himself and casually slipping in we were nothing without him.

Funny how he was paying public lip service to the merits of Cheeky AND Soriano when they were first appointed.

Pellegrini is a massive upgrade on Mancini, both as a manager and as a person.

Frankly the level of hatred directed at our former manager is pathetic and bordering on the pathological.

City had won fuck all for 34 years. Now we have had some useless managers over the years, Clarke, Pearce, Benson , McNeill etc but I have never noticed this much hatred for any of them.

Get yourself checked out. And by the way isn't he human and therefore entitled to a moan? I mean he's a football manager and they all do.

To err is human, to forgive, divine ;)

Mancini did a great job here for in terms of silverware and helping to put City on the map again and for that he will always have my thanks.
When he arrived I was patient during the first season of the defence being steadied because I saw potential. The next season is now part of our history. His final season wasn't great but he was limited by poor transfers which I still think were designed to bring him down. I can understand his comments in that context. Nothing too unexpected really.

Pellegrini seems like a nice guy but he has yet to win anything. He'll be given the same degree of patience and support by me and I hope he can bring a swashbuckling style of play AND trophies with him. I wish him well as her is now the manager and fingers crossed we kick onwards from here.

In my opinion Mancini hasn't said too much wrong there ..... okay he has had a bit of a go at Soriano , but it's something and nothing.

I suppose if you think you're doing a good job and then somebody comes in and is instrumental in getting shut of you then it is gonna rankle a bit , it would with anyone ..... and , with the growing Pellegrini rumours , it would appear that the club had been thinking of dismissing Mancini long before he finally got dismissed !

Mancini hadn't done badly here , and Soriano has to hope that Pellegrini can better it ..... or else Sorianos own footballing and business knowledge will come under adverse scrutiny.

If Pellegrini is a complete fuck up I'll be wanting those pair of Spanish ***** heads on a plate.

Goodness me, surely you'll want Sheikh Mansour and Khaldoun's heads on platters too? Those cunts employed the Spanish cunts.

This thread isn't going to last the day in my opinion. I foresee at least a couple of bans and at least a dozen dummies flying past my window this afternoon.

I abhor smugness but I knew full well Mancini and his fierce arrogance would be the end of him. I never warmed to the man and I never will. All those wankers singing his name from day one and a particularly memorable anti-Pellegrini contingent at Wembley are looking so stupid.

Soriano made Barcelona the Club they are today. I think he knows a Manager.

I'll sing MP's name an all, and if he wins less than Mancini will I look stupid then?

At Barca there were quite a few others involved you know? Spanair anyone?

Could you start a ruck in an empty room? You're having a go at everyone! Perhaps it's time to bring Cook and Marwood back... I can't believe anyone would doubt Soriano's credentials in football. That's profound ignorance.

Hardly I have pointed out that Tolmie has an irrational hate of Mancini and that you may be overegging the importance of Soriano.

Leave it in the past. He's gone.

Agree he was fantastic for us in his tenure he will be remembered as the man who turned the 35 year trophy drought around that now in the past lets look forward and move on...

I seem to recall you didn't go a bundle on Hughes...

Considering one man got sacked and the other is the CEO employed by Sheikh Mansour and Khaldoun to oversee not only MCFC, but their NYC brand too, I think you might be a little bit more than confused as to who's over egging the importance of what.

I hardly think he's irrational given the state of how things have played out.
