Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini: Fourth place finish is 'imperative'

Of course it's fucking imperative! Despite him getting the boot if we fail, we can't be happy with anything less with being in fourth with only five games to go.

Hi Garry,I just wanted to shake your hand and ask you a question.I go to COMS as mucha as possible but sometimes I cannot leave the house as Sophie.....sorry..Sophie is my Cat...... needs a carer when Im away and sometimes I cannot find one.
My question is ; Is it possible to bring Sophie to matches at COMS in her kitten box and can she come in for free?

He obviously wants his job next season. Would City really sack him if he misses 5th by 1 point?
We've still got Europa next season - but I'd have finished outside the Top 5 this season in exchange for the Carling Cup. Fucking Portsmouth are in the Final of the other Pot!

The Carling cup can be won by any team playing decent on the day but it doesnt secure top players and status for the future and the cash isnt that great. For the amount of money we have spent we should definately be aiming to get into the top 4 rather than win the Carling cup.. both would of been nice though of course ;)

You don't fancy a day out to Wembley and lifting a Trophy at the end? I know I do! The Carling Cup is won by a side playing decent throughout the entire competition. We did make the Semis this time. City might scrape the last CL slot by a point or so and I honestly think I'd favour lifting a Trophy at Wembley. As a one off, though! CL all the way.
5th won't be a disaster - but if they let Hughes go despite City being in 6th and then sack Mancini for missing his target by one place then they've got some explaining to do.

I do agree about the Hughes situation, however I dont think we would of been as close to finishing in 4th as we are now if Mancini hadnt of come in. Thats just an opinion of course.

I still think I'd have preferred lifting the Carling Cup having put Arsenal and Man Ure out along the way than scraping CL and not getting past the Group stages next season.
Hughes' target was never 4th this season. It was 6th. Chances are, Mancini was tapped up after the 1-1 draw at Home to Hull and he said he could manage 4th. Targets are agreed between Employee and Employer.
