Isco? Failed to be a regular starter and they have a great relationship.

No. Fuck Isco.

We need only a CB, and Ross Barkley.

Done.

Cheers

Being played out of position by Ancelotti so difficult to judge him.

The rumour at the time was that he broke his word to Pellegrini when he moved clubs - if it's true then he wont be coming here while Pellegrini is in charge.

[PeterParker]

I am looking at what the players said and one after other, they say how good Pellers is.

There is no doubt in this world. They played for him, every single one of them gave everything for the Count. Opposite from what happend with Bobby.

No, I meant. Fuck. Isco. We don't need him.

Nasri came alive and you can't have he and El Mago and Isco. It's a waste of money. Ross Barkley on the other hand is something a bit different. Granted I've seen him a lot more than Isco.

Bottom line tho...whomever the Count wants...the count should get. No drama.

[getdressedmctavish]

To be honest I don't just judge him on winning the title, a lot of managers could have done it with this squad, Keegan, Royle, Sven etc. But he has shown that you don't have to be a rude, divisive egomaniac to get millionaire footballers to do their stuff and the atmosphere around the club has been visibly superb. He's largely responsible for the fact so many neutrals now like us, which is a real positive, particularly in the light of so called Fair Play bollocks. Top man.

I'd never say never, but I suspect he'd have to come out and say something publicly first.

[dazby]

But he hasn't won a European trophy at another club.

You only have to look back to March to see some of our own fans writing him off on this very forum.

[Bianchi on Ice]

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.

Im sure that never would have happened with Mancini

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

I dont see anything wrong with that comment. The point is Pellegrini gets the players playing for him, Mancini, at the end,had burned so many bridges half of those players would have thrown him in the air then backed away

Spot on.

[Jorgobot]

Spot on. A lesson in how to close a game out. No drama, no panic, job done calmly without a chink of light offered to The Hammers or scouse.
This season has been such great fun. I was a Manuel licker from the start. We played in the manner I always thought we could and should have.

+1!

[sheikh it all about]

It's a triumph of good over evil.

Jose was a winner. Manuel was a loser.

Who's laughing now?

[Moonchesteri]

you can stick your pellegrini up your arse.. you can stick your pellegrini up your arse.. LOL. How times change?!

DOUBLE WINNERS. PELLEGRINI, This Charming Man.. LEGEND.

[Original Dub]

They have this thing on SSN about "time taken for premier league manager to win first trophy"

Ferguson 42 months, wenger,mourinho 8 months.... pell 9 months?

I count 7 months?

Exactly.(though I don't know when Pelle actually started or where do they begin to count the months) but why people are ignoring the League Cup win? That stay may be about winning the Premier League trophy but long after we had lifted the LC trophy I still heard/read quite a few times that "Pellegrini has not yet won a trophy in Europe". Cunts

Well Mourinho's first trophy here was the league cup, so either the season started later, the final occurred sooner, or someone is playing with the numbers for their own ends.

[frankswift]

God bless you, Manuel. You've done all of us degreed engineers in the Western Hemisphere very proud.

Fuck me, I never thought of it that way. But Michy B and I can't take all the credit.

Mourinho 27 February 2005 Pellegrini 2 March 2014

As far as I can remember Manuel took up his position on 1st July, which makes it 8 months and one day by my calculation.
