Re: Mancini out
Yes the players are taking time to gel, but they did last week. Finally we gel so what does he do? Changes the team..... how the fuck are they supposed to gel with a different side each week.
Why start Dzeko and keep playing AJ on the right? Surely we need a player that can cross into the box, so why play him on the right where he has to cut back in every time?
We are poor in defence without De Jong and poor in attack without Silva so he rests them both until we are down 3 - 0?
So what if we do make the champions league.... if we can make a poor Liverpool side look that good imagine what Barcelona will do.

Re: Mancini out
thia nd totally this,this gelling thing is the biggest scapegoat ever,if he cant gel a team in 18 months he doesnt belong here
DD said:DSonBlue said:Getting bored of saying this, but...
We're 4th in the league, the players have had less than a year to gel, and we were better than Utd at Old Trafford recently. We won 5 nil last week, playing some good stuff.
We've lost (admittedly playing poorly) at Anfield, where not long ago so did Utd (ableit playing slightly better than we did).
End of season is the time to judge - and be realistic when doing so (or stick to Champ Manager where you assemble a squad and get instant results...)
Impatient, vain kneejerkers are the worst kind of fan.
Stop listening to the press.
If creating a team to challenge the best were that easy, and since money is the main criteria, look at all the millions other clubs have "wasted" on players over the years.
It all takes time, which means patience, realistic expectations, and possibly most importantly, continuity.
Spurs went from bottom to 4th in 18 months.
Fossils have formed quicker than we are gelling.
Wake up and smell the salt son. You sound like the wife who has been cheated on and knocked about a bit but who says "he's lovely really and he loves me you know".

Re: Who should City get to replace Mancini?
We clearly need someone who the players would want to play for, although I think that could be anyone else after this match. The usually proffesional Milner showing his frustration just confirms for me he has to go.
His tactics completely baffle me. I'd seriously take a reallistic Owen Coyle or Martin O'neill once Mancini gets the boot. The players need to be a team and need a manager they can respect, enjoy playing for and who would play them in a tactical set-up which makes sense.

Re: Mancini out
First, the players haven't all been here 18 months.
Second, and this is aimed at DD as well, think what it is exactly you're bitching about:
- the fact that this year in the league, we've only lost to Villa (robbed, we battered them and a defenders arse cheek saved them if I remember rightly), Utd (we were better and most people on here praised the team if I rr), Chelsea (we didn't play well after we went a goal down, otherwise big deal it's Chelsea, who we beat at ours) and now Liverpool (days before the biggest semi in recent memory (let's face it, it was on the players minds)...
- the fact that up until just before xmas, we were 2nd in the league?
- or the fact that you're disappointed with tonight's performance and result? (fair enough there were mistakes made in the team selection)
To turn tonight into a 'Mancini out' thread however makes you (and others) look really spineless, and a bit of a glory hunter, to be honest.
In fact it's getting really boring now, the same attention seekers saying Mancini out all the time. All you get is..
"Who will we get?" "Will Mourinho come?" "How about Hiddink?" "O'Neill?!!"

Re: Who should City get to replace Mancini?
Would definitely have him. Dunne and Collins were immense under him and are a shadow of themselves since he left. He has gotten the absolute best out of his players wherever he's been. There's better managers out there sure but I'd have him.allyboy said:Martin O'Neill
Re: Who should City get to replace Mancini?
He will be another Hughes imo.
Will he do well in the CL though, and TBH I thought Villa were a long ball team under him.allyboy said:Martin O'Neill

Re: Who should City get to replace Mancini?
I'm not saying Marin O'Neill is a bad idea but a lot of people complain about Mancini playing players out of position, O'Neill loved doing that at Villa.
What about David Moyes? ;)
