Yep. Except that they were one goal down when said substitution was made.

But the mentality in City had changed before the sub, we started defending and then instead of making them back off Mancini invited them to carry on attacking as if we're just playing not to lose.

Maybe this happened but I don't feel like it was a concious thing. Mancini would definitely have told them to go out and get more goals, it's all he has been saying after every game, even the 5-1 at Spurs. There's no way 12 seconds into the second half he was then stood on the sideline telling them to kill the game.

Any time City are under pressure he should be glued to the touchline in a Stuart Pearce fashion instilling focus and composure into the players rather than allowing them to sit back and shit themselves everytime Fulham touch the ball.

OK I can't continue this debate. Stuart Pearce was on the touchline all season when we managed only 10 home goals!

That is true, but Stuart Pearce was not shouting the right things.

Pearce had all the fight and the passion, Mancini has all the intelligence, imagine what City would be like if he combined the two?

Hahaha, well done for at least making me laugh for the first time since the final whistle, quality comment.

Ha ha, you know what I mean, I loved Pearces attitude and enthusiasm, he just simply wasnt good enough.

Mancini seems to know how to win trophies but shows no passion or bollocks and so the team relax and get away with this shit.
