Mancini

[TFC]

Nah, as soon as he's gone, I'm going straight on the offensive against the new manager. ;-)

It does make me chuckle that some of the most vociferous Mancini critics were Hughes inners. Even of those who were critical of Hughes, I think virtually none, or even none, of the Outers, were as emphatic about their criticism of Hughes as they have been Mancini, which shows us they are not objective.

I think we all know the real reason why they dont like bobby :)

Don't apply your silly comments to me please. "They don't like Bobby" makes you sound like a teenage boy.

I don't think Mancini is a good enough manager for Manchester City's future, in exactly the same way as I didn't think Hughes was a good enough manager for Manchester City's future.

It may be an alien world for you, in your likkle "don't like Bobby" bubble, but some people actually have opinions on the game based on what they see on the pitch and around the club.

Heres the kicker for me, I'm a 'fencer', but have based any dissenting opinions I have solely on what I see on the pitch.

I couldnt give a crap about the politics involved behind the scenes, and pay no attention to the papers - its all about the end product for me and at times while there are flashes of the brilliance that we are capable of, its been largely uninspired this season.

I'm an inner but i'd wish he kept his fucking mouth shut. If you have a problem with a player, you sort it out behind closed doors. you dont go public, that makes it 10 times worst.

Right, end the thread. We now know that Mancini is gone.

Thanks TH, this debate was getting very tedious.

Shame I kind of thought Mancini would be with us for years. I had a debate with a colleague earlier this year and I said our owners wouldn't sack him. Looks like I'm going backtracking on my words.

Right I know nothing and I don't know what Tolmie's latest musical clue means but as far as I can tell we have 3 games coming up that will tell us a lot about the team and Mancini and where we are going.

We play a derby that if we lose will see us 18 points behind United. We play Chelsea in the FA Cup, they have been up and down this season but their recent FA Cup record has been very good but this could bring us another trophy. A week later we play Spurs away, away games against good teams have been a bit of an achilles heel this season. The only decent sides we've beaten away are Arsenal and at a push WBA. Apart from that we've failed to really perform away.

If we win and perform in those games Mancini will at least have some credit for his season review with the Board/ Txiki and Fran/ whoever. Failure in some or all of those games weakens his hand and gives weight to claims that the team aren't performing for him.

Wins and good performances would suggest he is may still be the man for us but I'm sure there will be others who will claim that he is like Benitez trying to maximise his CV for a new job.
