Despite the nature of the defeat yesterday I am hoping that this has been a wake up call to Mancini and the players within our squad that actually give a shit (as I believe strangely enough that some are only there for the money). I dont believe there is the slightest room for complacency against the scum and maybe this defeat was perfectly timed. We as supporters can/could see that there are serious cracks under the veneer of this City team and they were apparent all over the pitch yesterday. By all means there were some poor performances from players that have been improving and I still think that Mancini has the 'mental' tools to sort it out but we were so poor all over the pitch yesterday that he would have had to remove more than half the team to make a difference.
Yesterday was very symptomatic of a manager beginning to understand the weaknesses within his team and I think Mancini was genuinely shocked by what he saw, hence the lack of tactical countermeasures to change the game. We HAVE to win over the two legs with the scum, HAVE to as I think it will have a direct baring on how the rest of our season goes.
