Has more patience with a 31 year old then 20 something year old. Makes sense Mourinho!

Sigh people don't learn? Been saying it for a while, you can't take this City serious because they always fail in the CL and start to fall apart in December-January time frame. Until they prove so otherwise is nothing to fear. This is our fault for being this bad. If we can recover no doubt about it we win it again.

Now what what? Nothing still the same. My reference was more to giving time to RLC and not playing Ivan.

This is what I was telling people Wednesday, one game does not make a trend.

If we get 50+ on the contrary that would be amazing! What we don't want is a Kalas type of case. That just because he starts one important game it's the best thing ever. Nope one game a lone don't do it. Needs to be continued with follow up games. Just like you used to bring cases about in the past about young players being giving chances like Huth, and I don't know who else but never amount to much.... Again one game does not make a trend. We need to see consistency my friend.

I think at the end of the day what matters is what the owner and board think. Because as far as for me I have no doubts we will bounce back. Yesterday was a good sign. But after recovering and finishing the season and having evaluate 3 seasons I can come to the conclusion that he should go. Because he brings nothing new that we cannot get from some other manager less controversial and better attacking style. However if the board and the owner are okay with this and back him even in bad times like Arsenal does with Wenger then that's even better. Why? Because they have finally settle on a philosophy they want and are willing to give room for mistake. Even though we make fun of Wenger, that is the reality. For a team like us top 4 should always be the minimum even in a bad season. If we don't win the PL then at least top 4.

Was reading what Mourinho said and mentioned how we must pick right moments to play rlc.... Don't know what to make of it. But I state my case. One game does not make a trend. Needs to show continuity and sustainable game time for development. Let's see what is the case after another 5 games or so.

I'm cautiously optimistic. My analysis is based on a series of games not just one.

If Mourinho can be patient with him the way he was with Ivanovic he would develop good. But if after one bad game Mourinho reneges him to the reserve, he will not make it. Needs to be very patient and give so much time like he did with Ivan.

Good. Now can we significant game time to RLC in the coming weeks?

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. One day does not makes a trend. Needs to be sustain in the coming games.

Said it before only way is by sustaining game time. Not one game here and there. Sustainable time is the key to youth progress.

No what the owner and board think it what matters most. I know we will bounce back and do okay, maybe even good. But I would still say to get a different manager afterwards regardless how we end. But if the board is okay with the fubtol we play, his controversy and all that stuff then good. If they are going to stick by like Arsenal does with Wenger then good.

Excited but we know one day don't make a trend. It needs to be sustain over the coming games.

Good change up. Even if they end up sucking at least giving it a go.

I'm happy he is doing good. Clearly did not fit the team but if we can recover some money it would be good.

We gave up hope of the PL already. Just focus on finishing top 4 and do good in the CL.

Who cares. Is not like we are going to be like this crap forever. Anyhow feels a little good to see the English teams do bad after feeling down because of our current form....I know sad but hey it is what it is.

Wouldn't mind a repeat of 2012. Poor in the PL and win the CL.

Maybe we have a season like in 2012 where do bad in the PL and win the CL?

Yeah I remember saying from the beginning I can't take this City serious since they always fall apart later down the road and do bad in the CL. But we are making it easy in the PL by being so sucky!

Yes but if we are going to put up with bad season I would at least like to see good Fútbol or the intention of improvement, some youth development and someone not as controversial. For the 3 seasons we are having with Mourinho it can easily be done by someone like pellegrini or klopp without all that noise. Nothing this guy has done cannot be match by someone else.

Well turn it around to make top 4, have a good run in the CL and maybe win some small trophy like FA Cup and such. That would be an okay season. Would be amazing if we have one young player get a lot of playing time like RLC and such.

Yeah I know he will turn it around. But if the clubs wants him for long term oh well. I just don't think he should be here for more then 4 years but kudos to the club if they do decide to stick it out like Arsenal does with Wenger.
