On Saturday my biggest criticism of him was that he picked a very 'un-Mancini' side; he set aside his principles and picked an overly attacking, unbalanced team. Last night, he picked a side and chose tactics which simply weren't suited. For the second game on the trot I thought he lost the plot with his selection, tactics and substitutions.
To use a cricketing analogy; when top class batsmen are horribly out of form their head is described as 'scrambled' as they can't think straight and have lost sight of their strengths and simply can't clear their head to make basic shot selections. Mancini seems to be like this at the moment and he needs to take a step back and get everything in order again. His backroom staff have a big role to play....if he'll listen to them of course.
They don't exactly inspire me with fucking confidence either, m27, if I'm really honest.
How can none of them see the problem last night? Two immobile midfielders sitting on the edge of our own box? I've talked to several blues who played the game today and they could see it.
Last night was the lowest point of the Mancini era for me. Unforgiveable and inexcusable.

fuck this rotation bollocks... for big games, you need your big players...
I'm sorry, nice guy... but Zabba in Midfield (or wherever he was supposed to be) is not a big player.... Young Dedryck (great potential granted) is not a big player; Kompany should have been in once Kolo was ruled out..

After Wolves Mancini was classicly anxious, bewildered and lost. This interview shows a man who is resigned, that's where the humour comes in in his expression. Almoast as if the pressure is off, he's concluded his time is up and there is no more he can do so human spirit kicks in and defense mechanisms, and the classic one we all use is humour and self depreciating expressions. Like a person who goes through trauma and decides to end his life, his final hours are peaceful and happy, his fate is sealed and the agony is about to be put to bed.
It's also classically, not classicly. Don't think a professional psychologist would make such an amateurish misspelling of a part of their actual diagnosis. It's bad enough that some fans are more than pleased to further the anti-City media's agenda. What's really sad here, is that you've gone that extra mile to make up this bollox about being a professional.Cheesy said:K.Reeves right foot said:I'm a professional psychologist and this is my reading:

It's self deprecating. As a professional psychologist I'd have thought you'd have known that.
