Mancini

[Rammy Blue]

I'll hold my hands up, you can look back and quote me, I rate Mourinho as one of the best in Europe and would've loved him to rock up here, as I want the best for City and rate him as the best.

The more you think about it and like you and others have said, he's not going to fit in our mould or our way of thinking in taking the project forward

In my opinion, neither is Mancini

That's exactly the point, imo.

Nothing wrong with wanting the best yet when we think that he may not fit with the ethos then there are howls of derision for us discussing the options that will potentially be the best fit.

There is no doubt some have convinced themselves Mancini has gone largely because they want him gone so badly it hurts. Some people have also now convinced themselves that its OK we are not getting a top tier manager because its Txki and he spotted Pep and did I mention they want Mancini gone so badly it hurts? Txiki could unveil Mark Hughes and there would be threads about why it went wrong last time, why it wasn't Hughes fault and why this time it will work. Oh and Mancini will be gone so thats all right then.

There is one aspect that cannot be avoided and that is Mancini wants control and he has to work with Txiki who also wants control and the answer to that will determine Mancini's willingness to continue or Txiki's willingness to allow him to continue.

Now we may find out they are a match made in heaven but personally I have my doubts that they can co-exist and most top tier managers are going have the same problem so stories linking us to the likes of Pellegrini or Koeman or De Boer (who is now the second Pep apparently) do have a logic.

Mind you people doing their best to trash Mancini's record and blow life into Pellegrini's or paint De Boer as the new messiah now that the big names are off the table is funny as fuck.

So if there's logic to the managers being mentioned, what's the issue with debating them?

You've said yourself that the likelihood of Mancini or other "top tier" managers won't be able to co-exist with Txiki, so let's discuss who can?

I seriously find it hard to understand how precious some people get when discussing the issue of the managerial position, it's no different than discussing a said player that may be available to improve the squad.

Let's face it if i said we could sign Messi, someone would say he wouldn't fit in to our system etc.........

There isn't an issue with debating them. We have 600 pages debating them. I like debating them. But it is funny as fuck when people started off banging the drum for Jose as the one man to take us forward and ended up doing a backwards triple somersault with pike to splash down on...Frank De Boer and his 3 years in the Dutch League.

You need a heart of stone not to find it funny.

I think the outers will even start to find positives in Paolo Di Canio or Mick McCarthy if they were somehow linked to the club. This is the "anyone but Mancini" thread not "top replacements for Mancini" thread.

In the Kingdom of the deaf even the man who shouts loudest is still not heard

The same people are saying the same things to the same people nobody is listening yet everyone is talking

Clearly some people want Mancini out and no matter what anyone says they will not change their point of view. Some people want Mancini in and no matter what anyone says they will not change their point of view

So can we agree to disagree and save bandwidth with this tiresome and boring thread which isnt a debate its just a way of people saying the same thing in different ways

Same thing I said on page 600, also previously stated in the last Mancini thread ;)

This thread will never end.

Ever.

Thanks for bringing that to the table

He doesn't have a point at all. The thread is 600+ pages and the most active thread in this section because it's of paramount importance. Stands to reason that Bob's position is under threat, we've under-performed this season and we have a new structure in place at the top of the club.<br /><br />-- Thu Apr 04, 2013 9:44 pm --<br /><br />

Got all my capitals correct though.

I'm not having that, he's used a capital letter at the start of every sentence?
