Don't normally like these threads having a go at individual players.

But please ....... goodbye.

Dzeko was poor today, I agree.

What did Dzeko do to upset you today?

I know, the way he sat on the bench and did nothing was disgraceful. Get rid.

You all know what I mean. Balotelli : no more need to be said.

But, I was one of those who said Dzeko would come good when others were having a pop last season. They were right though and he needs to be on his bike as well.

Owen Hargreaves can go too as far as I'm concerned.

Too many permitations at the moment as to who will and won't be here next season, gonna be an interesting summer.

Not playing Hargreaves often has been Mancinis biggest error

There's a lot of unfair criticism about Dzeko in my opinion. He's already scored 17 goals this season from 40 starts and would have been top scorer if he'd played every game. Instead he gets dumped for Balotelli, has to come in when the idiot has been banned or whatever and gets slated because he's understandably rusty. Basically Mancini had more faith in Balotelli and look where that's got us...

Just seen that and some of his other comments, that should cut his price tag in half. Nice one Mancini....

Balotelli must go regardess of whose in charge.

The next question is should we change 5 or 6 players again and retain Mancini or should we jettison Mancini and hope someone else can get the best out of Dzeko, Nasri, Milner, Johnson etc and just add 1 or 2?

Fully agree and oh, Bridge has to go too !!

Pantilimon can go as well!

I think Keeping is the only area that is pretty solid to be honest. Benchwarmers aren't that easy to come by, especially ones who can play to a decent standard. I would assume he's on 'reasonably cheap' (by Prem standards) wages too.

One question, who would buy Balotelli, and take on his wages?

AC milan, juve

the big italian clubs will want him

really?? I hope so..

Maybe AC Milan? We all know it's where Balotelli wants to go. Part of our problem is that we've let Tevez back into the fold, and it's widely accepted that he will move in the summer due to his actions.

To me, Mario has seen this and taken it on board., and is trying to wangle a move in similar circumstances... I think Mancini has been told to accept Tevez back, as we needed more firepower (cover) with only three main forwards for much of the season

If my belief is correct, then the hierarchy only have themselves to blame. This has been building up.

And one final point...if the club has allowed itself to take Tevez back, they essentially have to do the same for Balotelli if he apologises.

Dzeko doesnt have the bollocks fella.

Our tactics and the way we play aren't set up for wingers so no doubt any top class ones would look ordinary in our team.

I dont disagree with you though
