So as a manager, isn't it his responsibility if that is the case?adrianr said:chicagoblues said:Pelle got it all wrong .He is not the right man to lead us to next stage.
I disagree, I think many of the players aren't right to lead us to the next stage. Pellegrini should be able to play any combination of our squad, if they're as good as people think they are, and see of Boro at home. Just looks like they had a ready made excuse in the trip away and grabbed it with both hands.

Senior players not really wanting to win as much as the opposition. Kids who are desperate to get a chance being left in the stands.
Missed opportunity all round.
In general our inability to defend against anyone that puts a bit of pressure on us is a big concern. Pragmatism, and clean sheets can be entertaining too.

Whomever made that decision to return so late should be fired!
That was the worse performance I have seen for 10+ years!
Not one single player for the 2nd week running comes out with any credit
Pelligrini has some major issues to resolve IMO
This squad isn't as good as the one Mancini had and I'm being serious...
Balo for the useless Jovetic
De-Jong for either of the equally shite and totally overrated DM's
Fook FFP our recent buys have been nothing short of woeful;
Mangala - 38MM
Fernando - 15MM
Navas - 15MM
Cabarello - 6MM
That's 74MM on players who are certainly not an upgrade on the players we had!!!
Imo something seems seriously wrong and they are hiding behind FFP....This isn't a blip, this is serious and big decisions are needed as we are simply imploding!!
Enough is enough and Heads need to roll
I've haven't been this angry since the infamous Pearce regime!!
This is no knee jerk reaction, I have supported our fantastic club for over 45 years and this, given our marvelous owners incredible backing is simply unacceptable!!

Park a double decker bus, counter attack and expect some inevitable City blunders at the back, score, regroup aided by the bent officiating.
Piece of cake.

We've completely lost the plot defensively haven't we.
When Mancini came in, the first thing he did was sort us out defensively because he knew we couldn't win anything if we leaked goals all the time. I am not a Mancini fan by the way, but he was right to build from a solid defensive base.
For the last 4 seasons we have had either the best, or the 2nd best defence in the league.
And now we are absolutly all over the place. Our full backs bombing forward is all well and good, providing they realise they are first and foremost defenders. Likewise our captain, who seems to love gallivanting up the pitch like he's a attacking mid sometimes.
We need to get back to basics defensively.
