Losses do happen, often. Can you tell me the last time the league champions were out-played by a team 3 points above the bottom of the league?
 
Re: Mancini out?

How can you blame the manager?
Mancini himself said very early on that this squad wasn't up to scratch.
However...
He picked a team more than capable of beating Southampton. How can you blame him for the players going out there and putting in fuck all effort.

Regardless of the question of whether he should go or not. Saying there's no-one to replace him is a non argument.

Klopp, Simeone, Bielsa, Moyes, Laudrup, Mourinho, Conte and many more.

Think the city owners have suffered the consequences for not being ruthless enough last summer, but Mancini's tactics both in the league and in the CL haven't been great this year. Its an under-performance and if he does lose his job, he cant argue.

That said I expect a big change in pretty much everything this summer, whether he stays or not. Need to weed out some of the passengers

Need to invest properly
 
Re: Mancini out?

The City chief admitted the champions now face a massive uphill battle if they are to bring the silverware back to the Etihad Stadium in May.

“I think that now it is very difficult,” conceded Mancini.

“I always used to be optimistic and I want to be in this moment, but it is difficult.

“Twelve points is a big gap if Manchester United win tomorrow. It will be hard to come back if we continue to play like this.”

With some key players missing for the trip to Saint Mary's and skipper Vincent Kompany not yet fully recovered, it was never going to be an easy task on the south coast.

But, the Italian was adamant that his players simply should have done better.

“We didn’t play today. We had some players that didn’t play, it was not a good performance,” he said.

“Southampton played better than us, but we conceded two goals that a team like us can’t concede. I’ve never seen us concede goals in this way.

“The performance was really, really poor with many players – I think we played this game with two or three men.

“Three against eleven was very difficult; I am really disappointed with my players.”

Although eleven members of the City squad were on international duty mid-week, Mancini would not allow this to be used an excuse for his side’s below par showing.

“It’s not an excuse, but it is important because we had five or six players that only got back on Friday and we played on Saturday.

“It is really difficult when this happens, but in the end we played really bad.”

It's not like Mourinho is fostering an amazing harmony at Madrid. Or as if he's great at building a team without spending loads of money.

Mourinho would do a better job than Bobby is.

Have you watched anything of the Spanish League. They are an absolute shambles

I watch most of Barca's games and bits of others. I don't base my comment on Madrid this season but on Mou's whole career. He has specific problems at Madrid that he would not have at City.
