Let's be honest, any good manager would be an improvement on Pellegrini.
- Our high line defending (with a very AVERAGE press) is almost suicidal.
- Constant changes to the defence.
- Not a thought for the strengths of the opposition.
- Slavish obedience to 4-4-2 when we clearly don't have the players for it.
- Plan's B, C and D are non existent,
- Like for Like subs generally.
We had by far the best squad in the Prem last season - yet only just scraped home. This season has been a slow motion car crash due to the Manager's tactics AND the fact that 5 key members of our squad (YaYa, Nasri, Dzeko, Navas & Kompany) have either not turned up or have played very very poorly (even the man, Zabaleta, has been off-colour till recently). Poor play by the players isn't his fault but to continue playing the feckers when all evidence indicates what will happen if he does is crackers.
I happen to believe that Ancelotti will go back to PSG. But to say he wouldn't be an improvement on Pellers is laughable.
