He is giving the interviewer the time of his life right now

To be fair,
His half time tactics were spot on

For once, I thought he did alright. Tactically, he got that second half pretty down. But he's an overrated manager in many ways. His achievements in Italy are basically due to the downfall of the empire around him rather than anything he did specifically. His achievements in England will be due to riches rather than any specific level of skill. People will contrast Hughes style and say 'if anyone can do it why didn't he' well Hughes is a special blend of stupid, so lets just say any 'half-decent' manager could achieve what he has. Dear god..maybe Allardyce was right after all..

Missed the interview what was it like?

They would have beaten United if that imbecile Chris Foy hadn't dished out a red card when it wasn't even a foul.

I agree with you about Mancini being ridiculous when he moans about not having enough money to spend but his tactical change for the second half today was brilliant.

Honestly I don't understand the stick Mancini gets. I think he's a class manager. Got his tactics spot on in the 2nd half aswell and with a bit of luck Cíteh would have equalised.

He should have taken Nasri off instead of Silva though, that's the only criticism that I would make.

Yea that is true, he was probably thinking damage limitations and keeping Silva fresh for the CC Semi vs Pool.

His tactics were first class for the second half, but I'm still not sold on him to be honest. With the resources at his disposal, he's in a position where you'd expect him to lead City to titles.

I didn't uderstand why kept Nasri on, Silva should've stayed on.

They defo missed a big man like Yay, Balo or Dzeko today.

I think without the money, he would be an average manager.
He did the same at Inter, he had all the money plus Juve and Milan found cheating got him to win titles!

I totally missed the match, I thought it was later

He's a better manager than Le Whinge, that's for sure.

If the guy were brilliant he wouldnt play Nasri for so long.

Yeah but he has bought top quality players and the only weak spot they have is the left back position. I still think City will be strong enough to win the title.

He (Roberto) shown how to come back strong even with 10 men and 2 goal down..We Arsenal can learn lot from this..his tactics were spot on. We Arsenal can't defend 1-0 lead and we went 1 man down at Fulham, we lost the game really sad.

I think he's an excellent man manager, but with the money City have spent it makes the job about 50% easier.

gunnerthru- He didn't really have much choice with Dzeko, Balo and Yaya all missing though he should have taken Nasri off instead of Silva at HT.

============
Mancini isn't even good enough to lick his boots

He is one of the most Overrated manager aorund, can believe the amount of praise he gets, even though he is given a blank cheque by his owners.

Sigh!!!
I remember the days when we would win with 9 men!!!!
How the mighty have fallen!
