With guardialo joining Munich,Now Mancini should be backed

[stonerblue]

Manchini has made some significant errors of judgement tactically and in terms of players. Must win the league and then get to at least champs league semis or should go. Some real misplaced loyalty towards him

Mis placed fuckin loyalty ??

fuckin ell.............

Barry is a fantastic player but if we had the chance to swap him for Iniesta,how many wouldn't?

So for the second time at City? In two very hard groups? Hardly a sackable offence


oh wait.... it's you.

Not only that but the first season was our first ever season in it, there was no expectation of anything from me.

Then this season we were in a group with two comfortably better teams than us. Over the four games I saw of City v Dortmund home and away, and City v Madrid home and away, plus, the two games I watched back of Dortmund v Madrid home and away...Dortmund were better than Madrid in every aspect and everyone knows how good Madrid are. So I can clearly see why we didn't qualify.

So lets look to next year...

Spurs, Malaga, Napoli comfortably qualified in there first years in the CL with arguably less talented squads than us.
I think everyone agrees that our performance in the CL this season was a disgrace, 3 points from 6 matches and no wins is simply not good enough with the players we have.
Like jimharri says winning the league would make him unsackable and give him a final chance top prove himself in europe otherwise he will be on thin ice imo even with a cup win.

There's one glimmer of hope ......

if we DO qualify for next seasons Champions League , it would be almost impossible to do as badly again ..... surely we'd put on an improved showing , in hopefully an easier group!

It's still too hard for some to accept that our people were never even remotely interested in Guardialo. Bless 'em.

We may have a slightly easier group, but we are only ranked 19th by UEFA at this present time. So a better european campaign is a must for next season

This is getting pretty funny. If you think the non-availability of guardiola changes the expectations of Mancini this season you're deluded. He failed in Europe yet again. He has to succeed in the league again. Nothing's changed in the slightest.

Except for one crucial thing: Mourinho is now the red hot favourite to take over from him should he be sacked.

*adopts evil grin* He might even have already agreed to take over, hence pep's decision...

Regardless, today's news suits me right down to the ground. We win the title or Jose takes over. A perfect win-win ;-)

Boring Boring Dismal,

The smell is strong with this one master.

Me for one.

Iniesta can't tackle and is crap in the air. Would Iniesta ever have scored that header v Reading; I think not!

Every good side needs a Barry and Gareth Barry is ours!

Aside from that, let's get rid of this Barcacentric obsession. Without Messi I would back us to over power and out play them on most occasions, just as we did to Arsenal.

Oh no we haven't.

He's behind you!

Him and Billy aren't the villains. They're the pantomime horse.

hes getting desperate now. Putting winks after all his posts so that he can

tell us he was joking all along.

Mourinho will return to Chelsea. Anyone who thinks otherwise is an imbecile.
