Hold on. Am I reading this properly. You think Mancini will be big time failure but we should stick with him just so that the club learns the lesson. If Mancini turns out to be complete shite over long period of time, why would they in future stick with a manager for a long while???
I'm supporter of Mancini but I'm also from the school of thought that first you have to find the right man and THEN stick to him for a good while. Managerial stability just for the sake of it serves no purpose. If you are certain that Mancini will be a failure then I think you as a Blue should vote for his sacking. If you were right then that would obviously be the best thing for the Club.
Thats not it at all. Noth making the top 4 would be a big failure this season on the whole clubs part and the manager has his place , a rather large place in it. This does by no means mean he's a useless manager, or is incapable of bringing us success. Just we didn't quite achieve what we set out to.
But.... just sacking him bringing in someone else and we're back to square one. If we fail to come 4th, its being a season of failure in my eyes, but Mancini has already assesed the players and knows their strengths and weaknesses now he needs time to tweak it his own way, get his players in (as long as he doesn't replace Adebayor with Toni, than I'll personally kill him) to play to his style as at the minute we don't have the players to play his system imho.
He needs time to put his own stamp on the football club (as did his predecessor) and if he's not given that he's destined to fail. What I don't want is a kneejerk reaction of "oh, we came 5th. Don't let the door hit ya on the way out". I'd take 2 consecutive 5ths if I knew we'd be a title challenger the season after or at least a CL guarantee.
