No "probably" about it, hopefully Sunderland will go down, at least we might have a decent stab at 6pts off Burnley next season.

But c'mon, some of the football we've played earlier on in the season has been class, magical. Pellegrini is the right man for the job, he just needs to learn sometimes you have to grind out wins, Mancini would have gotten us a draw against Liverpool and a win today, by playing boring. Attacking expansive football is great, but not always the answer. Pellegrini will learn that in the premier league you can't always play like barca, sometimes, rarely, you have to play like Chelsea.
I thought he might have learnt it after Cardiff, Villa and Sunderland away, we're 33 games into the season and it seems he still hasn't worked that out. He deserves another season but if we start next season as slowly as we did this season...
I can't think of a better man for the job, who's available. As long as he sticks to his end of the bargain and wins his 5 trophies in 5 years, there's no reason to sack him. We can only get better under him, this is his first season so we should be better next year. I don't want city to be a sacking club. And anyway, why are all the fans so entitled all of a sudden, this is the premier league, you can't win it every year. We should just count ourselves lucky to be where we are. I'm not saying I'm not disappointed at how the wheels have fallen off this season but I'm optimistic about next season.
