I don't see why we should stop hiring a new manager every 6-12 months. Makes the board more exciting.

Prestwich Blue yo say he couldn't handle Robinho, total bollox. He been playing shite so he's been pissed off to Brazil and they're paying his wages. How's that not handling him.
And we've not been great under him, were FIFTH with a game in hand FFS. As more the special one you same guys that want him now were moaning how boring Chelsea were under him.
The guy's our manager get behind him and stop fucking moaning all the time. Typical City fans.

It talks about a manager needing three hats:
1) Selection - buying the right players and picking the right team
2) Coaching
3) Man management.
Looking at Mancini
1) Doubts about team selection
2) Seems to be pretty sound on this so far
3) Seems OK but couldn't deal with Robinho
Mourinho ticks all three boxes comfortably.

In fact, I think the Mourinho talk is all just fantasy.
He'll get Real Madrid... or Liverpool... or the Rags... or even Chelsea... before we would even register on his radar.
We might have talked to him, but we are simply his fall-back position should all other options fail to materialise.
We need a manager who wants to be here... that manager is Mancini.
Can we have another fantasy thread... Messi v. Ireland?

Had problems with Shevchenko and Robben as I recall. All managers do.
Many of the best players at Chelsea were bought by Ranieri. Bought Quaresma and Mancini at Inter and has ditched both already.
I have no problems with Mancini's selections. Dropped Toure, made VK and Lescott first choice CBs. The only bone of contention for some of you is Ireland. But for me he is lightweight and needs too much time on the ball.
