Mourinho making the right noises today in the papers saying he'll come back to England and wn't be going United etc. Hope we go out and get him, a definite step up from Mancini and his pals David Platt and Brian Kidd.

No I will never forget that day as it was the best day of my life, do I have to be a Mancini-hater to be classed as a city supporter? And in all honesty I think you're the one who has gotten over May 13th considering all the negativity, after one defeat.
Not so sure about you, your trying too hard it's normally a bad sign

Sorry I will just agree with all the negativity until I reach 200 posts then I will express my own opinion.
You're going to fit right in ...

I stand up to the Mancini-haters and I'm accused of being a rag. Don't know about you but I find that slightly ironic.

I'm starting to understand how this forum works now.

Don't worry i'm finished on here for the night, after just 2 days on this forum my heads messed up. I'm sure i'll get the hang of it after a while.

mayo31 said:A bloke calling himself or called Louis Cooper wrote this on the MUEN. Great post and one I agree with:
Let us not forget, that the self professed 'biggest club in the world' won NOTHING last season. Arsenal have won nothing for 7 years. I don't recall any sackings.
Let us not forget, Mancini has won FA Cup, League and CS in 3 years at the club. EVERY City fan would have snapped RM's hand off with that promise 3 years ago. In the beginning, Ferguson won nothing for 5 years - even after massive player investments (Webb, Ince, Pallister etc). It took Fergie 13 years to win the CL. And for such a great manager he has only won 2 out of 20. Mourinho has won as many in less than one third of the time. Of the current crop of PL Managers, only Wenger and Ferguson have won more than Mancini.
Let us not forget that Mancini is 48. Wenger is 63. Ferguson is 71 and both have much more knowledge and experience than RM. He will get better and learn. You can't compare him to any of the others. It's like comparing on old pro to a player breaking through and learning his trade.
I do think the next 12 games will tell us all we need to know - i.e. if we fight to the end. But Mancini has to improve - like everyone else. He needs to improve his body language, his engagement with players and his decision making in team selection and tactics (especially in Europe). His self awareness and desire to improve will be the key to staying or going. Also his solidarity with Txiki and the owner.
Let's not forget, a change will play into the hands of our rivals.
Is Mancini's offering acceptable? Is 2 out of 3 trophy winning seasons acceptable (not forgetting this season is not over yet) after 3 full seasons in charge?
Damn right it is.
FORZA MANCINI
