He has won the EPL and an FA Cup in 3 seasons and runners up this year. A win ratio of 62%? What will this Pellegrini bring to the party apart form a complete lack of the English language? I really hope City struggle next year and fall away? Are they becoming every neutrals favourite club to despise or what? Who was it that said having money doesn't give you class?
Precisely Cest ! Note to the Man City Board: - If you had the best eleven players in the world who stayed injury free all season, every season, you would still not win everything every season. ......Just because Utd reclaimed the title, you throw your ****in' teddy way out of your cot ffs. Whoever you choose to take charge, and no matter how much money you throw at him, you will still be pissing against the wind trying to better Utd. Jeeeezus !
I'd still fancy us to win something having spent £178m plus! Spent £40 odd million last season on Rodwell and players that hardly play. Lost the plot a few times and called the city boards bluff! Can't do that with billionaires.
Possibly more accurately is that MUFC lost the title last season rather than MCFC's greater record. Add that to their disastrous efforts in Europe and that would just about sum his reign up. Pelligrini was a failure at Real Madrid by their standards so the City board have achieved nothing with the change.
cracking points, not only have $ity shot themselves in the foot here, they've blown all there toes off, manicini has been there most successful manager in forever. there board is dead on not606

The official club statement, It is with regret that Manchester City Football Club announces that Roberto Mancini has been relieved of his duties as Manchester City Manager. This has been a difficult decision for the owner, Chairman and Board to make and it is the outcome of a planned end of season review process that has been brought forward in light of recent speculation and out of respect for Roberto and his extensive contributions to the Football Club. Despite everyone’s best efforts, the Club has failed to achieve any of its stated targets this year, with the exception of qualification for next season’s UEFA Champions League. This, combined with an identified need to develop a holistic approach to all aspects of football at the Club, has meant that the decision has been taken to find a new manager for the 2013/14 season and beyond. Chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak said: “Roberto’s record speaks for itself and he has the respect and gratitude of Sheikh Mansour, myself and the Board for all of his hard work and commitment over the last three and a half years. He has clearly also secured the love and respect of our fans. He has done as he promised and delivered silverware and success, breaking the Club’s 35-year trophy drought and securing the title in 2012. I would like to personally and publicly thank him for his dedication to the progress that he has overseen and for his support and continued friendship." Assistant Manager Brian Kidd will take interim responsibility for the remaining two games of the season and the post-season tour to the United States. Make of that what you will.
Just thinking if we had a manager who got us to The FA Cup Final and finished 2nd in the Premier league...The year after winning the premier league. He would have face printed on money....there would be statues galore, the city would make him a freeman, I would let him shag our lass, streets would named after him, he would be given a contract that would only end on his death......
