B\connellblue said:There is a simple explanation really and it's becoming ever clearer now. Pellers is a lucky manager, in so far as somehow he got the gig with us despite having no tactical nous whatsoever..
How can a coach with no tactical nous do with a Malaga team full of greenhorns and journeymen what he did against Dortmund? Over 180 minutes, he was one incorrect decision away from an aggregate win over a team that completely and utterly outclassed us not too long before.
I wonder how more managers before the inquest turns to the actual players...
I mean Mancini and Pellegrini are like chalk and cheese but both faced/facing the same problems in the "year after" with completely different approaches to the game.
Our football last season was probably the greatest in City history, now suddenly it isn't.
