Pellegrini is the new manager (Malaga Newspaper reports)

These are incredibly exciting times for us.

This summer is really going to see us go to the next level imo.

Two year deal is exactly what a club like ours with a structure like ours should be giving a manager who's unproven in the league, regardless of their record outside it. It ensures that the manager can never hold the club to ransom and that he must perform to get his contract extended. I'm surprised we haven't decided to go with a rolling one year contract reviewed every 12 months.

If it is Pellegrini and this is a done deal then even with my absolute fanboy love for Klopp, I'll be delighted we have secured a manager who is so highly respected both tactically and as a man manager. His Villareal team in particular were every bit as exciting and breath taking as the current Dortmund team even if they lacked the explosiveness and the quality of players that Dortmund currently have.

Happy days!

Like the cut of your jib sir and agree totally. Klopp would be great though.

If true and it is quite a big if. I don't agree with it.
Two years is a very short contract for a manager or coach.
Even Fergusons players underperformed when he was coming to the end of his previous contract and going.
Even if the manager feels no pressure the press will use it as a stick to beat us with and say he he is going which will affect the players.

Pellegrini, woah, Pellegrini, woah. He came from sunny Spain, to see the fucking rain.

I just wish something would be announced officially.
This whole affair has been badly handled from start to finish.
It would be nice to start looking professional for a change.

You've got to go back to Joe Mercer to see that Nijinsky!
The 2 Amigo's haven't exactly covered themselves in glory with this one have they?

We're going to have to build a bloody Ark soon, it's not stopped!

Only on here could we be debating who is taking over from a manager who hasn't signed a contract yet!
I love this place!

me too, truly deeply insane in a way that is so uniquely "City" and even stranger i wouldn't have it any other way
