What can we expect from Mancini then?

Postby 10.Goater_Legend » Sat Dec 19, 2009 8:13 pm

Does anyone have any knowledge on the type of football we will now play, what tactics, formation we will deploy? I honestly know nothing about Roberto Mancini apart from he did a top job at Inter and Lazio.

And I would just like to say thank you to Mark Hughes for his efforts and I hope things work out for him in the future.

According to a reporter, based in Milan, who gave a resume of his career, his attitude is that if you play good football the results will come.
"You sir, will either be hung as a traitor or die of the pox"
"That sir, depends on whether I embrace your principles or your mistress"

I am genuinely surprised no one has answered your question yet.

Does anyone actually know the answer? What formation does he favour? Is he like Mourinho where he has a system and tries to force players into it, or does he base it on the personel available? Attacking, free flowing football, or 1-0 wins? ta

Lets ask a slightly different question - Why Mancini?

Because he was available ?

Because he said yes to our offer ?

Because he is the right man for the job ?

Because Hughes was deemed not to be the right man for the job ?
