Pellegrini extends contract

He has the players at his disposal to win the league as it stands.
I just hope that he uses Fernandinho and either Fernando or Delph to protect the back four. With Toure, Silva and Sterling providing Aguero with the proper service, we'll do well.
This season won't be down to the players available. It'll be down to how they're utilised

I agree .
And he needs to stop farting around with the back 4
 
We played a style of play to bring the best out of certain individuals and to get them used to the way we want to play for the future. The sacrifice was that it didn't suit some of our squad. We are gradually rectifying that by bringing in pace and changing away from the two striker model. To win the title in his first season despite playing a way that clearly didn't suit some of the team shouldn't be belittled to the extent that some do, particularly with how many goals we scored.

Last season, the loss of form of key players due to a number of reasons really didn't help, or being restricted in the market. It was still January onwards when it took its toll though.

Could be have done better tactically in some games? Absolutely. If second despite all of those issues is not deemed good enough, then I fear a lot may be calling for Guardiolas head in some seasons too.

He's done fine so far for us and I'm expecting good things this season with the acquisitions we have made, particularly De Bruyne. We don't have the most expensive team in the division or the highest wage bill. Anything in the top two or three and the manager is doing his job. We need the other things to go our way (Aguero staying fit) if we are going to win the league though. It isn't just and never is just down to the manager.
 
He got lucky winning the double in his first season .
We didn't exactly do it in style did we .
He relied a lot on Chelsea beating Liverpool to win us that title .
That spell we had between February and March last season convinced me he should go .
Let's see how he does this season .
It's a risk keeping him .

I'm not pellers biggest fan but to say he got lucky in his 1st season is a lot of bullshit. You might as well say ronaldo and messi are where they're at now because they play in a shit league

And I'm also taking it we got lucky scoring 102 goals and having the second best defensive record in the league
