Mancini

[samharris]

It's blue first and foremost, not red like some of the inners have said.

Also everyone seems at peace and happy, we are clear in our thoughts and we wants what is best for the club.

Also the mushrooms on the grass are actually bubblegum and you can drink the water and it'll get you drunk. I discovered why, Jose is at the water filtration system and his magic is turning water into wine! ;)

Of course its Blue wouldnt think owt else,just that Blue could also mean depressed or sad ;)

Brilliant.

It's this colour , no doubt about it ;)

Nice colour that.

I kind of talked and read myself into wanting DeBoer more than Pellegrini now.

I know what you mean. This is a really fantastic read for anyone who's interested in De Boer.

But to be honest MP certainly isn't someone who I'd fear is going to take us two steps backwards. He's shown what he can do in the CL, and in La Liga, with decent teams. Be a brave move by Txiki and co considering how popular Mancini is but I guess that's why they get paid the big bucks.

Billy,

That's a very interesting piece on de Boer. I've not seen much of his work at Ajax but I was impressed by him when we played them. His comments about Nasri and Aguero stuck in my mind; in addition to his tactics.

My current view is that I would rather take a risk on him than MP, if it was a straight choice. And if we were to go for a young up and coming coach, FdB would probably top my list.

What were his comments mate on SN and SA mate? Good piece that. I'd also plump for FdB over MP although I do rate MP, worked nothing short of miracles at Villarreal.

Di Marzio - In regard to this guy, if he says something I believe him. Guy is genuinely ITK and as said previously his balotelli coverage was amazing.

And hes been the same for the last two seasons

I think it comes down to how we finish the season and what Mancini's attitude is like in this final run of games. I think he's in danger of losing his job but i dont think he's out just yet.. All comes back to the fact for me though that he wasn't appointed by the Spaniards

Ajax coach Frank de Boer has criticised Manchester City's players in the wake of his side's 3-1 win against the English champions on Wednesday night.

De Boer said that Roberto Mancini's players should not have struggled so much with his change to three at the back after Ajax's second goal.

"If you are at the top level and your manager tells you two things, you have to be able to do it," Setanta Sports quotes De Boer as saying.

"There are always moments in games when Mario Balotelli, Sergio Aguero and Samir Nasri go to sleep. They do not chase the full-back, as they do not believe it is necessary."

mancinis record in europe is nothing short of horrific, if ppl look at that and still think he's the man for the future they're deluded.

We got very very very fortunate winning the league last year.

I love him for what he did but hes not the man to make us world dominators

Nowt like a bit of exaggeration

Dear oh dear. Pelligrini or de Boer. How far have the outers expectations fallen. While there may have been some logic behind replacing Mancini with Mourinho or Guardiola, replacing him with guys who have won nothing of any note, well frankly it defies belief.

Dunno if intentional, but made me laugh.
