Roberto Mancini

[City Raider]

Bad week for Bobby

I wouldn't mind but Inter Milan started the match well .
Looks like Mancini got a lot of work to do at Inter Milan .

You will find he already had some time to build. But whenever l watch lnter it hardly looks a team let alone discover the typical Mancini way of playing.

Btw Balotelli hardly trained his one braincell since he left us.

 

[hutton who blue]

He had one? ;

Loved the middle finger. Too bad they got routed.

They looked solid pretty until loses to Juve and Napoli in November. They were erratic until Christmas and since coming back have bottled late against Sassuolo, Atalanta and Carpi. Those 3 recent games alone should have been a guaranteed 9 points and equal top. Having watched all of those games they've been very unlucky in hitting every post possible at crucial moments but it wouldn't happen to Napoli.

Roberto doesn't half believe in humiliating his players publicly — "I would have scored that, and I'm fifty years old"! Not sure how effective it is, honestly. Reminds me of when he said he sometimes wants to punch Nasri. Give em hell in the dressing room, fine. But bringing the media into it? Just not sure…

 

[City_Sean]

He's spent a fortune and still doesn't know his best XI. He has a decent squad there and yet they're so dull. Miles behind Napoli and Juve in terms of organisation and tactics.

He ruined Icardi in this season and they could sell him in this late market session for 25m € (very cheap price!). I don't know but their XI are competitive for the top 3 spots.

 

[NipHolmes]

Certain he will be sacked very soon. Shame but with that squad there is no excuse for the downturn given the Champions League expectations.

What odds on him joining Chelsea?

Next to none, he's going to get the Italy job.

Mama Mia!

Would put them back as one of the best in the world.

 

[Damocles]

Would put them back as one of the best in the world.

Would be interesting at least and he has seemingly wanted the job for a long time.

This is under the presumption that Conte gets his much rumoured move to the PL rather than accept a new contract after Euro 2016

 

[Vienna_70]

Inter beat Chievo 1-0 last night, Icardi scored.

Off-topic, but Lasagna scored for Carpi. Somebody must have pasta him the ball!

 

[BigOscar]

Two sent off and lost again, looks like the wheels have come off for Bobby. Down to 5th and dropping like a stone, with Milan only just behind them and on a real charge.

 

[MeatHunterrr]

yep, will be probably sacked if he doesn't get CL

 

[NorCalBlue]

Just noticed the interesting coincidence that Inter currently have exactly the same W-D-L record as City. We've more chance of 3rd place, but we'll probably both end up 4th. Sadly for Bobby, that won't be enough for a CL spot for them. And if they decide that's enough to sack him after he's given them their best season in several years, it'll be beyond harsh. Hopefully, if they want a change, they'll just wait for the National team to take him off their hands (and probably pick up some cash in compensation).

Then they'll be sorry. They'll probably recruit Pellets. Then they'll be even sorrier.
