Mancini

[The Future's Blue]

Pace, movement, pressing, high tempo passing...

There's a few "name me a manager better than Mancini" merchants on here, who'd do well to watch and learn, that's for sure

So a good game to watch now automatically means that the managers involved are better than Mancini?
I'm sure there are plenty of games over his tenure which would leave impartial viewers impressed with what they saw.
Both you and OB1 are better than cheap jibes, using an isolated game to push your argument doesn't wash.

Dortmund look a bit like us this season tonight, can get the opportunities but just cannot finish.

I like this attacking play but when we're on form I like ours more.

The fact that they're both playing for a place in the semis of the highest level tournament in club football, help convince you at all?

Looks like bullshit, smells like bullshit, it even translates as bullshit.

That's the 2nd post on page one of this thread.
Six thousand posts later and the only thing that's altered is the depth of the bullshit.

Very good point and probably a very good time to stop feeding the flames.

I look forward to the rest of this season and even more to the next.

It's been fun.

One for all the Mancini outers, what qualities do these others managers have that make them so much better than Mancini?

People can say teams like Dortmund have Klopp and they love the high pressing game but look at our defensive record over the last 3 seasons, its been the best in the hardest league in the world. People can criticise our lack of attacking options this year but we've missed our top striker for several long injuries and a few senior players (namely Samir Nasri) haven't contributed as much as they possibly should. People can also say that's Mancini's fault but if he'd been backed in the transfer market players like Nasri would have had more competition than Scott Sinclair to contend with.

Every manager has positives and negatives so what makes them so much better than our Bobby?

They are "Nicer" but totally agree with you..

If you remove all the posts that simply commentate on the debate (like yours), as opposed to adding to it, this thread wouldn't be half the size it is, and there'd be much less bullshit.

I like ours too, but the tempo here is what's been missing at City this year more than anything. Really enjoyable, despite the scoreline

Convince me that Malaga have a better manager than us? No, not one tiny bit.
If Mancini was to leave for whatever reason then I'd welcome Klopp - he would be behind my choice of Mourinho but I think he would do a good job.
By the way, for all the pretty, fast flowing football that you're getting giddy about, neither team have scored yet I saw us only a few days ago score a couple of fantastic well worked goals which required all the attributes that you seem to think we don't have.
