It's not looking good is it. Very important few months for the club as a whole coming up on and then off the field.

I am clueless, but can you describe more on how Tiki and Soriano's are the problem ?
Are you referring to the players we got with FFP in place ?
Navas, Fernandinho, Jovetic, Mangala... These guys would have been performing a lot better at any other club

How is it even possible for them to have done that, if they tried to ?

Soriano is an accomplished administrator, the question solely relates to burgerstain or whatever his name is.
Man city should be signing players that ANY manager would be happy to work with. Fernando, fernandinho, etc etc are not the sort of player that any manager would be happy to work with - eg, it is a waste time and money the minute we change managers and the new manager wants something different in midfield.
The signings we have made under him have, on the whole been appallingly bad, and if Pellegrini has to answer for his performance, then he definitely has to answer for his

Mangala has not lived up to his promise. Fernandinho Navas & Negredo have been excellent signings, as has Demichelis. Without them there is not a cat in hell's chance we would have won the title last season. Fernando has struggled but he may not always do so.
Mangala is the one who will be deserving of criticism if he doesn't come through, due to the transfer fee.
Imo Fern & Navas were the best players we had out there today.

Mangala has not been given enough time for me.
He will be one of the best centre backs in the world within the next three years , Pellegrini has gone safe with MDM and it has backfired this season.
The new manager will not make the same mistake.

Pellegrini will ultimately carry the can for the dire season.
However the signings since Aguero in 2011 have been abysmal. The next transfer window will be fundamental to our future aspirations. I would definitely sack the DOF for constructive dismissal for incompetence.

And yet sacking the DOF was supposed to be the thing which solved the problem last time.
Strange.

Not 99% of the ones we have , obviously...I think the cheapest and best one we have had all season has been Demi but hes not the answer..Mangala was supposed to be and at 40 fuckign million he should have been.All this shite about bedding in or in a few years time etc etc etc is fuckign bollocks.....you don't go out and spend millions on a player for him to need a year or 2 to fuckign get it right.

Only for those who refused to blame the manager
In this case the manager and administration have an equal culpability. My concern in my earlier post is related to the fact that we have openly stated our transfer policy as being pursuing those whom we feel will retain a transfer value in the future, yet have signed fernandinho for a ridiculous fee, bony who likely will have little sell on value etc etc
Additionally, as a club who most likely will have a new manager every few years, the issue of a core of players fitting into any managers plans is critical to our financial performance

I would guess, because he is one of the highest rated prospects in the world, who several top clubs were interested in. And we have spent a fortune on 'cheaper' options.
For the record, I think he'll be fine.
