Whats up with Bobby?

[Balti]

He's on a mission

He's striving for perfection

Or as close as he can get anyhow

:-)

 

[Blue Haze]

We need to be as perfect as possible. Mancini is ensuring that we keep striving.

These kinds of scorelines can lead to complacency.

 

[waspish]

Some of our defending is poor

 

[WEMBLEY76]

There is nothing wrong with Bobby Manc - he is a perfectionist

 

[Pride]

Can I ask a honest question?

Why the hell on earth do you want De Rossi?

Fuck man, the guy is good and all but he's been both inconsistent and temperamental for the past I don't know, 24 months or something.

You have Yaya Toure, the BEST IN THE WORLD at his position, who can also play CM, AMC, and CB if needed, and Nigel De Jong, who is also a really frackin good CDM.

You wanna pay for De Rossi to sit on the bench for 94% of your games? This would be just a waste of money, LOL.

 

[Lucky13]

The fact that he mentioned their goal 2 sentences into his post match interview speaks volumes of his determination to succeed at City.

 

[bernabias home shirt]

If he's pissed at that he needs to reassess, we don't need De Rossi, we don't need anymore additions.

I'm happy he's pissed at conceding at a set piece though.

Its up to mancini who we need,then the khaldoon to give the nod.

After a great day in our histroy, i still thihk there is some thing up with bobby all the interviews bar about one so far this season he looks like he is in a right mood, i hope he cheers up a little i love him.

Do you think he knows some thing we don't?

To be honest, and I've posted it on another thread, I thought it was comedy gold:

'Is there anything more you can ask from your players?'

'yeh, yeh, yeh.....I need to ask them about the goal we conceded'

just brilliant. Added to that was his expression! The guy is a genius.

 

[kippaxking79]

You could see on MOTD he was miffed off at their goal, as it was a poor one to concede. I think he knows that if we dont address it immediately then a similar soft goal could cost us in a big game later on in the season.

He's probably thinking now, if it wasn't for conceding we would be top of the league ;)

 

[bluemoonjack]

have any of you noticed how tired and washed out he looks lately,looks like he's aged overnight,hope the lads coping with the pressure(his dad being ill can't be helping).forza Bobby

 

[samharris]

Bob never talks about other managers and is difficult to get answers from,even after a win..Scoring is something we seem to have our fair share of,conceeding is the fly in the ointment and quite rightly so Mancini is not happy..
Class act Bob.

 

[Peteri]

Look at Guardiola. Never happy either. It's a sign of a coach who always focuses on the things to improve.

The marking of Kaboul by Toure was atrocious. He looked like a sack of potatoes trying to jump. Like he didn't even care.

Great victory. Do we need to improve on set pieces defending? Yes.

He always goes home to Italy right after the match in an international break.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

He just looks like a man fiercely dedicated to sending a team out that can score 5 goals against Barcelona and not concede a single one.

Yup, it's the one that's knocking the smile off his face!

 

[peoffrey]

Obviously no-one could've predicted what would happen for Arsenal yesterday afternoon but the goal we conceded puts us in 2nd as opposed to joint 1st. They sit above us with a better goal difference.

The one thing I vividly remember from the 6-1 win at Burnley was that Mancini sat there all calm whilst the goals were being banged in. I was pissed as a fart by final whistle and went out afterwards to carry on yet the Manager was acting like it was still 0-0. Perhaps he's just super cool in his approach.

 

[sincity]

He's right you know, one goal was the difference between 1st and 2nd at the end of the day.
I just hope that this situation doensn't repeat at the end of the season when it will really matter..
I just love the fact that Mancini is keeping himself firmly rooted to the ground and focusing on the players to keep improving and realize the potential we all know is there.. and yes we clearly need to improve our defending from set-pieces...

 

[goluboy]

Totally agree. Fantastic performance, but he knows it could've been better. On another day, we could easily have had minimum 2 more goals, but we could've given away 2 or 3. Would've been unfair, but his job is to fix it.

Just imagine what we'll be like in a few months time. Can't wait to find out!
