Georgian Maestro said:In a perverse way this defeat could be a good thing. It was clear even before the match that Mancini was on his way. This defeat just makes Pellegrini eventually taking over a hell of a lot smoother. If we had of won the cup yesterday the Mancini lovers could have turned this into a Chelsea situation when Benitez arrived. Pellegrini needs fans support when if arrives and this defeat will ensure he receives it
You can immediately tell there's going to be quite a few shits from this forum singing and showing posters. 'He's not won anything, so we don't trust him' is bound to be on a poster. 'We want our Italian who lost to a team half the price of just Aguero in a Cup Final' will be on another. YCNMIU.
