Ancient Citizen said:I've always said that Mancini would do it for us. He is a typical Italian Manager that is ultimately driven towards winning, however ugly or controversial. I have been watching this team now for almost 52 years and fellow blues, trust me; this lad will take us places, I've been there with Joe and Mal, who also had the gift. Mancini is going to be up there with them, pretty soon.
I am from the same era and totally agree with what the above gentleman says. I firmly believe that under RM, City will take giant strides forward and the League title is well within our grasp next season. I have never publicly backed Roberto - its not my style - but from deep within me I have always been totally impressed with the way he has carried out his job this season.
He has been under constant pressure - the media, the public in general, the fact that because of the finances he has had to justify the outlay - and finally - from so many people on Bluemoon.
Roberto, I respect you because you are much more than a mere mortal like the rest of us.
Hail the second coming of Joe Mercer, (and Malc of course).
