Genuinely interested to know peoples thoughts on which one they preferred. Both have been/was brilliant. Have to go for Mancini personally for giving me the opportunity to see city win a big trophy for the first time and the league was something I didn’t think I’d see. Also believe Bobby understood the meaning of the derby, 3 of our best derby wins came under him 6-1, semi, Vinny header.

On the flip side they way we’ve dominated domestic football under the last few years and the style of football we’ve played under Pep is something I don’t think we’ll see again like this. I also genuinely believe we will win the CL in the next season or so which will be the perfect send off if he decides that’s it
 
Bobby era

Everything starts with that first building block,that first climb up the first rung

Winning the fa cup

Sorting out those rags ,getting past them was difficult,we had so many years getting battered by them ,we had to grow up fast as a club

Bobby ripped down the banner

Humiliated pisscan with his worst ever defeat

The agony we had then of dreading derbies,the run up to to the April one i nearly had a heart attack!

We scared them into the April derby 2012,he never set up his team's to just get a point but he was bricking it

Vinny headed it in,bobby took on pisscan and he nearly keeled over in shock that someone stood up to him and beat him

Agueroooooool sealed it,ripped their heart out

Where we are now is brilliant but I would chose the fights and experiencing the firsts in the beginning everytime
 
If the question is era, then without doubt must be Pep. Won more trophies,have broken record after record. Played football in away I never thought I’d see an English team let alone City ever play and probably set us up for that to continue after he goes Someone had to break our trophy drought and am grateful to Mancini for that. But to choose an era then has to be Pep, and hopefully not finished for a while.
 
If things go to plan for the rest of the season we could have had a consecutive treble.

Success wise Peps era is ahead as well as last season winning 14 in a row to take it away from the dippers is up there too with 2012
