Why The Hell Would Anyone Want Mancini Sacked ?

[grim up north]

Mancini's staying, isn't he.

Yes. No. Maybe.

On the one hand, his relationship with Begiristain is not good, his family don't want to be here and I believe he himself is convinced he has let the owners down this season. He's also had a coded dig at the Sheikh himself in his frustration at the transfer dealings.

However our owners are honourable people and I think they would be reluctant to sack him without a very real and tangible cause. I still firmly believe he wasn't originally meant to be our long-term manager but he has been here for a while and done a pretty good job on the whole.

However there is a concern that he has significant flaws & does not quite have the ability to take us to the very top level and keep us there. But they also don't want instability and to have go through the same routine as they did when they sacked Hughes so they'd want him to stay until we have secured the right long-term target.

and you know this because.............

What evidence of this is there?

This is how I evaluate the current situation.

The current squad is Mancini's. He has bought everyone, except a select few quality players that were here when he arrived. He has spent considerable amounts of money.

The current squad isn't good enough to challenge domestically and in Europe.

Now, it appears we are coming to a summer of restructuring. Do we let Mancini, who has already spent millions buying players who aren't good enough (Nasri, Kolarov, Dzeko, Balotelli, Maicon, Sinclair, Garcia. These players alone cost somewhere close to £113million in transfer fees) have control of the purse strings again?

Personally I would say no. No because he isn't showing any signs of change, he will still be an aggressive manager who will keep attacking players, resulting in the same thing every transfer window.

I have a really bad feeling that you if we keep Mancini, we are going to back him by buying Cavani and another load of stellar names that will just increase the infighting at the club.

In fighting?

Acting like spoilt bastards is just not becoming of any City fan.

Wembley plans and off to see Silva, Tevez and Aguero in an hour. Thanking my lucky stars myself.

Spending Millions doesn't guarantee anything. Man Utd sent decades breaking the transfer record for Bryan Robson etc and they were miles off Liverpool. Ferguson took 6 years with unprecedented money behind him, but Mancini did it straight away

Too much taken for granted

Those players were good enough to be part of a title winning squad last season. £180 nett spend in 7 transfer windows and we have added Yaya, Silva, Aguero, Nastasic, Milner who should all be here next season. The ones that aren't will bring in significant money so I personally don't have a problem with him being given money to spend.

The only managers that don't make bad buys are the ones that dont buy anyone.

You were right when you said Fantasy. The notion of Mancini qualifying out of the group is madness in itself.

Like he's done four times in six attempts.

How many of those times was he top seeded at Inter?

Is it relevant?

I feel totally reassured about the failings of this season and the outlook for next season with roberto Mancini's insightful, deep and thoughtful comment;

"It is important that we work 'ard"

I've never heard him make that point in any other interview about anything ever, honestly.

There are two sets of City fans on here and we wind each other up no end. Those who think an FA Cup final represents a good season and we should thank our lucky stars that we're not shit anymore, and those who think surrendering our title by February and underperforming again in Europe represents a shit season for a club aspiring to the top. I'd say as a general rule that the first category will be so called 'Mancini Inners', and the second category will be so called 'Mancini Outers'.

Yes, because thats all he has said about next season too
