Lost the dressing room, my arse they are lacking, and Mancini saw right through some of them.


Completely agree. Don't worry this Manager is great mates with everyone and that is all that matters apparently..!

I've said this before but under Hughes, Mancini and Pellers the manner of the defeats tend to be the same.

The spine of the team goes missing.

We reguarly drop points to teams who are simply hungrier than ours. As a fan I find that criminal.

We lose game against sides (take Villa and Cardiff this season) which should have been done and dusted by half time and are unable to cope with the game going against us. Take Liverpool on Sunday and reverse it. We go 2 up and then it is 2-2. Would we have scored again? Would we fuck.

What if Nasri scored the tap-in? Everything rosy, because we came back after going down? Strong winning mentality, character & all that? Bullshit.

I don't think the last 15-20 minutes were the problem. It was the 70 odd before.

The last thing I want is to slag my team, this is as beefy said in another thread is our problem, the crowd are pretty much ready to ship out 20 mins after half time, the team lack steel and dare I say a scum bastard mental approach, to ok you scored, right 20 mins we don't lose a fucking challenge, a throw in anything Pellers is a gent, Vinny perfect captain, if it was crown green bowling. Berigistan was a winner, a Barca legend, he I hope has Sussed it out we are fucking weal from Hart to Negredo A new signing who on present form is taking the piss. Nice dummy it was but that is fror 4 months, who is gripping him and spelling it out in plain English, who is ranting and raving on or off the pitch, because nice has had it's day and will only get worse when that twat Jose gets his ducks in line. Look what he has done with players he has pretty much decided are gone. City are a nice day team, give them a problem like Naples away or QPR last season orCardiff 1st game this year and we all make excuses. That has just stopped for me.

We lack a hardness and toughness. To me its that simple. When teams go at us we are in trouble. We walk over teams who are intimidated by us. At home, Palace rocked up and attacked us. We didn't deserve to win that game and there have been a few like that. Just how much do these players want it? We need tough battle fit players - not to assault teams off the park but to take games to the opposition around whom the likes of Silva and Sergio can do their thing.

i agree with that.It is an attitude thing.Regular match goers will pick up on it.Even when we have trounced teams at home the first 45 minutes are usually performed on idle,like we are going through the motions,we hardly break sweat.Second half we crank up the performance and score a shit load.We are sometimes unrecognizable to the side that did fuck all for the first 45 minutes.

Teams that get in to our face from the off reap the rewards.

Liverpool didn't beat us,we beat our selves.Their game plan was simple,fast out the starting blocks,high tempo,whilst we just strolled around the pitch looking shell shocked we were lucky to go in at half time still in the game.Why the fuck were we not prepared for that ?,surely we knew what to expect ?why the fuck didn't the manager pack the midfield let the scouse cunts come at us for 45 minutes let them tire them selves out then make changes.Why can he not be pragmatic games.

This season we should have won the league,again.We are the best side,again.Our attitude is shit,we are arrogant.The best managers in the games have mostly been on the whole cunts Ferguson ,Mourinho.Our side needed a cunt as a manager to get the best out off them.There is no way Pellegrini is going to get the best out off this squad,he is to laid back,Mr nice guy.He is going to have to rip this side apart.

Who arr we talking about shifting? For me there are only 6 mustkeep players - zab, komp, toure, ferni, dave and nasri
The rest are dispensable in my view - also starting to wonder if we should cash in on aguero , hes brilliant but is injured to often

We've genuinely pissed away 2 very good opportunities for FA Cup wins in 2 seasons. 2. That really is horrible.

I wouldn't keep Nasri and he would bring in decent money. Someone else will fall for his potential. Kun is the best player we have, arguably, when fit. There's the issue. It would need to be 50-60m though.

Nasri has been shit since he came back and doesn't do enough defensively for me.

I'd seriously always keep Aguero as well as the six you named. If he gets injury free he is the difference between winning a title and not. Nasri and Silva link so well when they play close together that I agree Nasri should be on the list. The other are totally non-controversial.

Any club that moves on more than 4 or 5 players a season usually struggles the next. Let's address the unfit players who have not contributed this year and make space for one or two (rotated) youngsters. Massive rebuilding is counter productive.
