It wasn't a fluke, it was a true sign of what we can become but we have to be positive as well as organised.
Whether those players can instantly click again & it can happen quickly enough to save Mancini is another question but we used to say we were aiming for top 6 & building for the future before we sacked the last manager.
Do you think we should sack Mancini now?

And this smiling Arabic assassin is intent on stealing all the treasures they've nicked off everyone else, and pulverising them into commercial and footballing oblivion as he does so."

No, nor at the end of the season unless this form continues and there's no improvement but if you're applying the same criteria as last time; you do.

You could look at it as lost 2 out of 3 in the league with limp dick insipid performances rivalling Hughes' worst, and the win was undescribably poor, but, nonetheless a win. Dont think its anywhere near a question of his future just yet, but he asked to be judged on results, and if the recent performances continue Bobby himself knows he can expect to be replaced in the summer, I think we all accept that is pretty much fact.
Hold on tight, its gonna be a fucking roller coaster.

Johnson was good, hit some top crosses in and was dangerous despite being played on the fucking RIGHT!
Vieira was sluggish, def not match fit in my eyes.

Do you not think Jinky made an impact when he came on Antti?
Personally thought he looked pretty decent...take the team performance out of it...hence the title of the thread ;-)
I was fucking suicidal after the Portsmouth game & am feeling even worse now as it seems all my worst fears are being realised so if I can make an attempt at being positive at least a few other fuckers could make an effort!

Both Johnson and Vieira made a positive difference when they came on today.
Johnson to play v Bolton but on the left.
Vieira to play from the start but he needs young legs around him.
