    Oh, how the poor chap wasn't able to make a couple of signings so he was forced to spend only lots of millions rather than stupid lots of millions and thus had to settle for second place.

    Life isn't fair and all that. It was hard to tell really, through all those tears...

    His moaning did amuse me. We lost the title because we didn't spend enough money is the craziest remark he could make. I get his point, the RVP transfer has really annoyed him now RVP has basically gone a long way to winning the title. The gap is so huge though that he has to be man enough to accept he has not got the best from his squad this year.

    It's similar to O'Neills comments recently stating that his squad wasn't good enough - those players were good enough to win the league/achieve survival...

    so effectively he's admitting he's a chequebook manager?

    What a joke seriously. How much has he already spent on that squad and he's complaining it's insufficient. Why not pass the money to us and let Carr show them how it's done.

    Yep. Could he manage a mid /bottom club, I think not.

    Got no time at all for Mancini now, not after the garbage he had to say after our game. Used to think he was a decent sort but the prick can burn in hell now as far as I'm concerned.

    Gosh, I just popped over to the Man City boards to see what they were saying...

    3,000 posts compared to over half a million here!

    A bit of a tumbleweed moment, I have to say.

    Mancini blames the rest of the prem for going soft against Manure. What a nob.

    Wow, there's extracting the urine and then there's this... He's got to have lost his marbles this season.

    You know, when did becoming a good manager become admiring the world's most talented and expensive players – asking for them and inevitably getting them and then picking the best 11 that any old fool could pick?

    Dispense with tactics and coaching, developing ability in favour of massaging millionaire player's egos. Reminding them of what their 'motivation is' every Saturday...???

    Pound for pound (literally) Mancini has a better squad than anyone else in the Premier League at disgusting levels of unsustainable cost.
    They and Chelsea before them, like QPR at the other end of the scale, embody all that is unholy and unbalanced about modern English football.

    You spend all the oil money you like on individuals who believe themselves bigger than the football club but you won't build a team.

    Are we supposed to have sympathy for HIS domestic and European failures this season? Another derby victory at Man United only highlights it!

    For me, Roberto Mancini and all the managers Chelsea have had are just living breathing endorsements of Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger.

    What on earth was going on with Mancini after the game last night, his one word answers to the guy interviewing him after a derby win were embarrassing, even Ferguson was more upbeat, (although he took the opportunity to criticise match officials), no wonder Man City seem a different team to last season, Mancini seems to have 'lost it', what a tool! <doh>
