Roberto Mancini - next Italy manager

I'm afraid we'll be loaning him out until the end of contract in 2019, his current ability and level of commitment simply doesn't correspond with the wages. There's a reason why Sevilla refused to buy him for bloody €25m - a bargain in todays prices. Mancini will probably buy from Italy, the market he knows best.
Next season in Russia is going to be interesting, two Italian coaches (Carrera and Mancini) fighting for the title along with CSKA.
 
I live and work in Russia, and split my time between Moscow and St Petersburg. But St Petersburg is where my family are, I regard it as my adopted home and my son-in-law is a big Zenit fan. He and I took my 10-year-old grandson to the new stadium for his first match the other week (they lost 1-0 to mid-table Terek Grozny and it ended up costing them their place in the CL next season, so we weren't exactly a lucky charm!).

They have a couple of City links. Javi Garcia is still there, and they bought Robbie Mak this year. But I'll love it if they do hire Mancini. I still think that, when he left us, it was the right time for him to go, but I won't forget his seminal part in our rise and in some of the best days I've had in over 40 years as a matchgoing Blue. Would be great to see him knocking the Moscow clubs off their perch next season.
 
Tbf he's tried to on a few occasions, will Yaya go to Russia though?
For a big cheque? Why not? The league is quite pedestrian, fits Yaya, and Zenit desperately need a good DM. Though judging by tweets Yaya wants to stay even with a paycut.
