Can't agree, if you watch the video, he quite clearly yells his balls off to get our defenders to push up & condense the play further up field. Bob was very much behind how we played.

I agree 100% with Ted.
Credit where it's due - Mancini (and his team) played a blinder on Saturday.
Keep it up and I'll have zero problem reassessing my opinion of him.

This too. The way he tactically masterminded Tevez's injury then changing the captin to someone else. A real triumph!
Forza Mancini!
