Roberto Mancini Fired!!!

What a thankless job!!!

Despite being the most successful manager for Man City in decades, Roberto Mancini was fired unceremoniously about an hour ago! An FA cup, the first premier league trophy in 44 years, second place in the league etc. etc. Granted, they have finished trophyless but it is Mancini who turned city from a group of individuals to a team! This quick fix business is killing football. Atleast give the fellow another season to see how it goes. He is not a disaster! He is the fellow who won you the first EPL trophy in 44 years exactly a year ago. Sit down with him, interrogate what went wrong, the way forward, the assistance he needs and give him another season!

And the way they have done it!!! Absolutely disrespectful! When the press have details of your firing before you, that is not funny!!! They should learn from Man United how to safeguard vital information!

I rememeber Mancini's quote a few weeks ago; "If second is not good enough, then every manager in the premier league should be fired!!". But he forgot to add "...apart from Sir Alex!".
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

I think its a good move. Mancini whines a lot,initially he used to blame the players like nasri but of late he has turned to senior officials

It was not the plan of sheikh mansoor and co to fire him,actually he was on a five year contract ,and has only served 1 year.However,when he lost the FA cup final then it was clear to him that he is going,he cut a disturbed figure.

Having lost champions league,FA and losing petty games at EPL shows mancini didn't do enough.As the club manager ,he recruited sergio but failing to capture van persie despite having the necessary resources shows his lack of decision making

The owners of man city have invested over 1 billion pounds,this isn't small money even by their standards.They need results,and this move to fire mancini sets a good precedence for this club.

By 2018,man city strategic goals is to be a strong ,leading club in Europe and definitely the man to lead this club to achieving those goals isn't mancini.

Kudos to him anyway for the premier league trophy lost season which he won by more goals rather than by points

And Man City quickly follow in the footsteps of Chelsea, much to our delight. That's the problem of having billionaires who know nothing about football buying your club and thinking hiring and firing managers brings success.

This all comes about as David Moyes was given the Manchester United job despite not having won a trophy in 11 years at Everton - and eight years on from his last trophy at Arsenal, Arsene Wenger is still in charge at the Emirates.

Who said football was all about trophies? It requires a lot of patience willpower n goodwill of the Board. Even SAF survived his initial three years without a trophy at Utd.
However i think Mancini also lacked man management skills. He assembled n tolerated superstars bloated with ego. He should have learned from SAF how to handle such stars!

That guy Mancini's biggest problem was whining about everything and anything. Granted he delivered to city their 1st EPL trophy he just does not have what it takes to manage the ego's assembled at city. I am not surprised at this not at all. Not when you whine about your players, your owners/directors...not when you whine that because you did not get Van Persie you wont win the trophy and you have likes of Ballotelli, Tevez and Dzeko surely!!! his goose got cooked long time ago...it was just waiting to be served.

Did not like the guy. plus the combination of David Platt and Brian kid just make me sick. let him go with his whining back to Italy. City will start to crumble.

1) Mancini has never been forgiven by many for fighting with Balotelli on training. He failed to manage Super star egos.

2)Those Complaining that Moyes has not won a cup in 11 years should also know that he is the only Manager who gets ZERO budget to buy but still fights for no 5 or 6, with teams like Liverpool, Arsenal etc, who have spent heavily. He is a Brilliant manager..think about Fellaini, Baines etc and how he got them from nowhere and has moulded them.

3) I LOVE MAN U. I think moyes wins a minimum of three cups next season..
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God..
