Mancini vs Ferran & Txiki

I don't see how Mancini's management and acquisition style marries in with our plans to develop the academy.

He likes them ready made.

What? This is a *ullshit story, our youth set up wasn't and still isn't good enough, thats not Mancini's fault. Ferran and Tixiki know this , they will help get the quality Mancini asked for in the summer. They will also have explained that we still need more quality players to our owner and that you bed in youth into a solid strong team. That to create the desire for young players to chose City you have to have the image of success, win things! Far from being at odds, Mancini has now got two kinfred spirits, who understand what he's asking for. This is nothing more than fantasy journalism typical of your average british football journalist.<br /><br />-- Mon Dec 17, 2012 1:31 am --<br /><br />

any article that uses the words 'tiki-taki-' can fuck right off.

unless their qouting judge dredd!
 
The reason i see this as bullshit is it says they want us to tica taka style football BUT mancini is sticking to 4-2-3-1 . I'm sorry but the last time i checked a style of football & formation were 2 different things? Or do i just see the game above & beyond this idiot who wrote the article's level?

I see where your coming from.

The two are intrinsic as i see it though bud.
If your setting up x way then you will tend to want to play the game in x way.

A quick example would be 4-3-2-1, probably have a tall target man so a few long balls may go up and the 2 attacking midfielders run onto anything he nods down.

Also known as the big sam special.

Yeah no i agree but if you're going to write an article you would think he would use both styles or both formations for comparison not mix and match it doesn't make sense to me!

Rafa benitez likes to play 4-2-3-1 but it's totally different to ours! just why i think this article is written on "educated thinking/guessing" rather than any inside information he actually has that was my main point

how are you anyway mate haven't heard from you in a while !
 
Taxi has 21 caps for Spain and played up front at Barca with Lineker. He will know that in the real world you dont find First team players at the age of 12.

I know what you mean but our formation could be described as 4-2-3-1, 4-4-2, 4-2-2-2 or 4-4-1-1. In the same way a 3-5-2 could also be a 3-4-1-2 and 5-3-2 depending on how a person sees a team. Generally I don't think that supposed formations mean a huge amount (bar 3 or 4 at the back), where as the style and tactics of the team has the main influence on the game.

A 4-5-1 could be deemed as defensive but if the wide players support the striker well is that not a 4-3-3.
