The Engineer

Postby Niall Quinns Discopants » Sun May 11, 2014 3:12 pm

Provided us with a double. Legend!
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Understated classy individual, will now always have a special place in my heart. Bless you Mister Pellegrini and thank you.

And made Nasri into a devastating force, Garcia into a proper defensive midfielder, Kolarov into one of the most feared wingbacks in the world, Dzeko into a consistent scorer who no longer minds being rotated and saw bargains in Negredo, Navas and Demi.

Somehow he has put City in even better shape than we were two years ago. Brilliant achievement.

The players sneaking up on his interview and giving him the bumps was one of the best moments of the season. Fantastic manager, two trophies and a brilliant ambassador for the club and the brand. No praise high enough.

Some people can't help themselves. Maybe try and enjoy the moment?

Had my doubts about him in the beginning of the season but boy how wrong he proved me to be.
THANK YOU MR. PELLEGRINI !

I can admit I've had my doubts at times, but his first season has been nothing short of successful and I'm delighted he is in control of our future. I can only see us going from strength to strength with him regardless of what FFP throws our way.

Barring disaster & collapse next season. He has earned himself 2 more seasons now.

My requirement for keeping him on next season, was a strong finish to this season, so we started on the up, next.

Well he produced four of the most solid end of season performances we've ever seen & won the fucking league.

Legend.

Yea he's also more experienced. Learnt to use Garcia in that holding role when we needed a plan b late in the season, it worked so he stuck with it.

I wonder if there are any more, relatively inexpensive players, from his time in Spain (who may have also played for him there) that he might be keen on bringing to City in the summer; thus saving us a load of cash on big name stars ??
