Can we have a Poll - In or Out ;-)

Only joking. What a nice touch to give Zab's and Paddy a run-out, they really did deserve it.

Oh, and well done son. I've give you some stick but you've really earned your corn mate. CL and FA Cup Winners ...................................... (did I just really say that, FA Cup Winners, the biggest Cup in the whole wide World?) .................................... in the same week! Now that's what Legend's are made of :)

He doesn't come without imperfections, but who does?

We've reached our league target, 3rd is still up for grabs, first trophy in 35 years. And for the disappointments of the way we set up in certain games, we have also played some outstanding football. None of it would have meant a thing unless we succeeded this week- and we have, resoundingly so.

He's shown a class and dignity throughout, and admitted to his own shortcomings, like the debacle at Anfield. And look at the response. That aside, Richards, Kompany, Zabaleta and de Jong have all stepped it up a notch and become consistent performers. I trust in Mancini to take us to the next level and deliver more silverware. Sometimes the football won't be outstanding, sometimes it will. But on big occasions like last Tuesday and today, he's the man.

Forza Mancini.

Never said i wanted him out, i like how we play.

Patience is a virtue instilled in all of us as city fans (LIKE IT OR NOT) and i think it is the perfect way for our team to play their football.

Some would pass judgment after a few games.. or half a season. I still think it is worth noting that this has still only been his first full season in a league he has to learn about. Just as a fair number of our players are new to the prem and however they have settled in so far, still need time. City will get much better and Mancini will improve also. Sometimes he may get the balance wrong but I don't believe he is any kind of mourinho.. give it some time to let the players really settle in to the prem and each other and City and then see how good the football is.

Not bad though for a newbie... FA cup winners and a CL place in his first full season!

I think he'll do alright. Actually no, I think he'll be brilliant. Although he's set himself a high benchmark to improve on. It's got to be top spot next year. I hope we do it and he stays for a long time.
