Re: Players want Mancini out - The Sun
signs of total jealousy from the rag loving press they know we are here to stay there just using dirty tactics to try and de rail us but it aint gonna happen just like platini and his dreamed up rules to stop city taking one of the so called big teams money that they rely on there all flapping because without a doubt its only a matter of time when there will be sky blue ribbons on all the tropheys and i for one cant wait!

Re: Players want Mancini out - The Sun
There is definately something going on between the players and Mancini - how bad only god knows - need to keep this manager because punting him out for another one is just madness utter madness but also maybe there is a need to have a word with Mancini and try and find a half way house.
Our two recent managers have both been my way or the highway types.
Its worrying and dismissing it out of hand would be naive whilst believing it would be gullible. as ever there will be a small grain of truth in this somewhere - did Ade and Vinny have a bust up?

MANCHESTER CITY players want Roberto Mancini booted out... NOW.
Many of City's multi-millionaire under- achievers believe they will never challenge for the Premier League title with the Italian in charge.
And SunSport has been told some are guessing among themselves when Mancini - whose side are fourth in the Premier League, eight points adrift of leaders Chelsea - could be sacked.
City suffered a shock 2-1 defeat at Wolves on Saturday during which Emmanuel Adebayor had an on-pitch row with Vincent Kompany.
A City source said: "There is hardly a player in the dressing room who has any time for Mancini. The place is a complete mess.
"There are times when he tries to be a hard man but no one takes any notice.
"Team spirit is falling apart because there is no respect for the manager and some players are even guessing when he could go.
"They don't know who they want in, they just want Mancini out."
Another source confirmed: "The players don't like his confrontational style.
"They're also baffled by him tactcially - for example, they couldn't understand why he brought on defender Pablo Zabaletta for Emmanuel Adebayor instead of striker Jo at Wolves on Saturday."
Yaya Toure and James Milner had a bust-up in the tunnel during last Sunday's 3-0 defeat by Arsenal.
Toure's agent Dimitri Seluk says his client is angry at what he believes is a lack of winning mentality at City.
Seluk said: "Yaya thinks there are some players, perhaps mostly those who have been there for a long time, who think that fourth place is already a big position that it is good enough to 'not lose' rather than to always win."

Re: Players want Mancini out - The Sun
Yeah - but what if it's true?
The Sun do get some things right.
Some posters would do well not to strick their heads in the sand just yet.

Well, I think IF there is a 'source', then I think SANTA is on his way! The only one to benefit from this whole thing. Not getting a game, speaking for Tevs a lot... I dunno, I could be wrong, like!!
Anyway, I'd rather be looking at the training pics and deducing from there who's 'happy' and 'not', thank you very muchly...

Yeah, because looking at pictures of a bunch of players who know they are having their picture taken is a fantastic barometer for how happy they are behind the scenes...

Touré snub highlights problems plaguing City
Wolverhampton Wanderers 2 Manchester City 1
By David Instone
Monday, 1 November 2010
Roberto Mancini has been on record for weeks as saying he does not expect Manchester City to win this season's Premier League. On that front at least, he looks a sound judge. What is taxing him considerably more is turning some £140m worth of his own signings into a cohesive enough unit to deliver even the minimum requirement – a place in the Champions League – after it emerged yesterday that one, Yaya Touré, drove away from Eastlands the previous weekend after being substituted at half-time during the defeat to Arsenal and that Touré and James Milner had a row in the tunnel.
Amazingly, a club official said leaving the ground early was common policy: "[Touré] left before the end to miss the traffic. It's normal procedure."
Presumably it is not normal procedure for the players to be at loggerheads with each other so often as, in addition to Milner and Touré, the club's highest earner on £220,000 a week, clashing previously, Emmanuel Adebayor and Vincent Kompany were arguing on the pitch during Wolverhampton Wanderers' fully deserved victory on Saturday.
There is also some confusion over why Carlos Tevez has been allowed to return to Argentina where his family live while he is trying to recover from a "dead" leg. It seems some players want to be anywhere but with their team-mates.
City now have the vultures pecking at what already appears to be the carcass of their challenge for Chelsea's crown and it's debatable how long the club's owner, Sheikh Mansour, will stand for hearing that his team have been beaten in West Bromwich and Wolverhampton and that they are attracting unsavoury headlines relating to excessive drinking and infighting.
The statistical knowledge that Mark Hughes' City had taken two more points from the first 10 games last season than the present crop have – and were still in the Carling Cup – does not help.
At the very core of a looming Eastlands crisis is the painful failure of this extravagantly assembled collection of stars and egos to evolve as a convincing title-chasing team. Their response to falling behind with more than half an hour left was thoroughly inadequate.
What City would give for some of the home-spun unity their former centre-half Mick McCarthy has instilled at Molineux; virtues that saw Wolves to their first League victory since the season's opening afternoon.
While the 19th-placed club thrillingly pulled themselves together and struck with first League goals of 2010 by Nenad Milijas and David Edwards, City, on top of all those bust-up and booze-up stories, displayed more of their increasingly seen match-day snarling and shrugging at each other with Adebayor and Kompany the chief culprits.
So hot under the collar did Mancini become that his blue-and-white scarf, which came out of mothballs for the first time this season, behaved just as his team's performance did. It unravelled and ended in a heap.
"It's impossible for us to play like that," he said, adding that City had to learn to win without Tevez. "It was the worst we have played. We played very badly in the second half and it is important to understand why."
If Mancini doesn't come up with quick answers he will be in trouble. He failed to offer any immediate explanations for the capitulation but will by now have rewatched a game in which his defenders found no more of an answer to the menace of Matt Jarvis than Manchester United's full-backs had four nights earlier. The winger was outstanding and is timing to perfection his run at a place in England's squad for the friendly against France. "Their bench was probably worth three times what our entire squad cost but I think we wanted it more than them," Edwards said, tellingly.
