LMAO at the Mancini outers - Bobby shut you up good and proper.

Rubbish. 380m - It was the least we should have expected. Frankly, we frittered away valuable points in games we would have won were it not for the negativity engendered by Mancini.
I went to plenty of matches where I sat there baffled by tactics, substitutions, styles and team choices. And times where I was just bloody bored for 75 mins.

I was at the semi and the final of the Fa Cup and it was the best times ive had supporting City in 45yrs. Im grateful to the owners for letting this happen.
I hope Mancini learns we can win playing attractive football, but I think we could have got further this year by doing so.
A very ordinary team won this years Prem...........................we should have been closer to them in my opinion.

Watch his interview on citytv, he's achieved 3rd, CL football and won the fa cup but he's still pissed off about the everton defeat, the couple of city fans singing the mancini song in the background was class.

That Dippers defeat was the turning point of our season, in my opinion.

We could of easily buckled and thrown our season away after that defeat, finishing with nothing.

After that defeat i saw something from a City side i haven't seen in a long time, strength of character and that good old winning mentality that we keep talking about, long may it continue.

I've been very critical of Mancini this season, sometimes it's been called for and sometimes not but he's delivered the first part of the jigsaw and nobody can deny him of that.

Can he lead us to the holy grail?.........that is the question?

Spurs spent that and didn't manage 3rd and an FA Cup in the same season

If it was purely down to money spent then we could just compare owners wallets at the start of the season and publish the table without the bother of having to play any games.

Thank god it isn't that simple.

I hate seeing him blamed for the 380m. He took over a club in 6th position and spent 150m. It was his decision to move on Bellamy, Ade, RSC, Bridge, Robinho, et al, but it's not his fault that for one reason or another, the club hasn't received fees for them. If we had got two thirds of the money back we'd spent on them, we'd be talking about him taking over club in sixth position, spending considerably less than 100m net, winning the FA Cup and beating Arsenal to 3rd position in his first full year. Anyone would agree that was a superb performance.

But if the money means you can't take success at face value, then I would hope you can recognise the strides that our young players have taken under him. He's given Hart, Richards, Kompany and De Jong clear roles and direction, and they are flourishing. There are clear ideas behind everything that the team do on the pitch, and the team sticks to them religiously, every game recently, we've stick at the plan until it worked. Even the substitutions are very predictable, one player comes on (and usually scores), but the changes in shape upfront or the midfield are very predictable and usually totally effective. Everyone can see exactly why we win when we win, and why we lose when we lose. That's how we will progress, because everyone knows the plan and is focused on perfecting it. I can accept that it's not always to everyone's taste, but it's the way the top teams work, why after years of practise, they can rotate, bed in youngsters, and never miss a beat.

He's done really well this year, and so have all the players. They've stuck at it, shown grit, courage, focus and a great team ethic. It's a joint effort and I hope they get their share of the plaudits.

FA Cup. Champions League. Joint second. Oh, that'll do.

No, it wasn't, but the part which he didn't spend bought most of the squad which has won us third place and the Cup!
My thanks go primarily to the squad, who have persevered through all of Roberto's weird and wonderful tactics even when they were totally clueless.
All the same, he deserves credit for sorting out a defence which had been completely amateurish under Hughes and for persevering with, and improving, some of the lads.
Also for seeing the light just in time.

Thank you Roberto AND DON'T MAKE ME MOAN AGAIN! (please)
