Players still have to be attracted to any Club. They're mercenaries and, boyhood fans aside, will largely go for the best deal anywhere.
I note you haven't addressed the 96 points total yet. Their highest ever and since managed by Mourinho.

At the end of the day, Mancini may well have asked to move on so it's almost pointless defending him and singing that fucking song for 90 minutes tomorrow. He'll need to be replaced.
Where does that rumour comes from? that Mancini want to resign everyrthing els point to the contrary.
sounds like a new try from the outers.

He got a record total for Real Madrid, only being beaten to the league by a tiny margin by the best side to have ever played the game. Not something you can really use against him. And as for Pellegrini's and Mancini's win percentages and trophy records, Pellegrini would have done just as well if he was appointed when Mancini was. I'n not fussed either way about Mancini staying or going, just pointing out the obvious.
No, you're just stating your opinion.

When you put it like that i'm amazed they sacked him and that the press ridiculed him.Mayor West said:Pellegrini didn't win the league with Madrid?

And because of a record point total when managing Madrid you think he is a superior manager to Mancini?peoffrey said:ono said:Malaga went on a massive recruitment drive a few seasons ago. Their squad is probably in the top 5 in the league, and that's where they finished. And he didn't win the league with Madrid.
I didn't say he won La Liga with Real Madrid. I note you didn't comment I'm presently in bed with Kelly Brook either.
At Malaga he earned a record points total, qualified for the Champions League for the first time ever and actually saw players leave because of the financial difficulties.
