Mancini Sacked!

[robdog 2,084]

I remember when Pellegrini was @ San Lorenzo. You could see a definite drop in San Lorenzo when Pellegrini left. He did a good job @ River Plate & that is a BIG CLUB!!! Again, you people are only bothered about what happens in the Old World. You should try to expand your horizons a bit more.

Well the battle for the next season is set : Moyes vs Pellengrini vs Mourinho vs Wenger. I wonder who will come out on top? Someone who is special perhaps?

[Spike 12,049]

Why god why? He is such an awful manager.

[robdog 2,084]

Oh I failed to mention Pellegrini's time w/ RM:

48 matches 36 wins 5 draws 7 losses 75.00 % win percentage

Not sure why people don't rate that as a serious accomplishment

Ferguson only announced his retirement last week and he still managed to outlast Mancini.

Exactly. He was the one who had to put all the superstars -that were bought- to play in the first place.

Who would I rather manage City -

A manager who failed at Madrid (in a way) and has an Intertoto Cup, Copa Chile, Argentinian league title from over a decade ago and a league title with a team from Ecuador, or -

A manager with numerous Coppa Italia's, numerous Serie A titles and a Premier League title, numerous Supercoppa's, a Community Shield and an F.A. Cup?

Manchester City's players are underachievers and the weak ones, not Mancini. Mancini was and is a great manager. Pellegrini is in no way shape or form an upgrade just because he got 2 teams to surprise positions in Europa/the league.

I don't see Mancini leaving being a bad thing for us at all.

Mancini has an awful record in Europa.

His Inter team played some awful football, they won the italian title only because of the brillance of some players.

Manchester City has the same problem that the Inter Team he coached, some boring and awful football save by brilliant players.

Am I the only one who fears that what will happen in the summer is Jose to CIty and Mancini to us?! Scary thought!

I think it is easy to link Jose to City, too easy in fact. I don't think he will go to City.

You also failed to mention what happened in the Champions League that season.

He's a good manager and City have a good squad (although nowhere near as good as some people think it is) and they'll invest, but I'm happy with this change. If Mourinho comes then we're the favourites for the league in my opinion, and rightly so. We're a good team, with a deep squad if all our loan players come back and we make the right signings.

Personally I'm quite happy with the news about Pellegrini and Falcao over the last few days. Dodging bullets all over the shop.

Brendan Rodgers is now the 7th longest Premiership manager, being appointed last June.

[Special Juan 27,445]

Noises are Pellegrini and Isco will arrive at City.

[mybodyisready 155]

Pellegrini, Isco and Fernandinho all done to shitty. Worrying.

Pellegrini, Isco and Fernandinho all done to shitty. Worrying.

Mourinho, Striker and a Mid All Done to Chelsea. Worrying.

[Pizy 18,444]

City should certainly be stronger next season.

All down to what we do now. They'll have a huge influx of top class players coming in. Hopefully we will too.

[Heisenberg 1,824]

Have you actually looked at the Honors of both Managers?

Pellegrini has teams have won 7 trophies compared to Martinez's two. Are you speaking about just England?

If Pellegrini took charge of Wigan in the Premier League I dont think they would still be in the first division with an FA Cup, so for city and experienced PL manager would be better.

I guess Kenny Danglish > Pelligrini too.

Are you trying to teach something ? I didnt get your point, are you comparing Martinez's amazing work at Wigan with a has been manager ? Are you comparing someone who won the FA Cup with Wigan with someone who failed to secure four place with Liverpool ? I will say this all the time, for City, Pellegrini would be "a normal choice".They may compete next season, but they'll fail and fail in big competition.Oh and its Kenny Dalglish.
