21st Century Fox Posted 12 May 2013 Posted 12 May 2013 Monaco or Leicester... where will he go next!?
AKCJ Posted 12 May 2013 Posted 12 May 2013 Currently ringing around Old Trafford; "Mancini, woah. Mancini, woah. We won our trophy back, and now he's got the sack". Put half a smile on my face.
FoxesAreBlue Posted 12 May 2013 Posted 12 May 2013 My mums partner, who I think loses football knowledge by the day just said: "Good, he hasn't done anything there, if anybody else had that much money they would have won something" Absolute fvcktard.
21st Century Fox Posted 12 May 2013 Posted 12 May 2013 They've handled it atrociously. Also seems like the perfect time to keep him with Fergie out of the picture, rather than bring in someone without PL experience.
fazzyfox Posted 12 May 2013 Posted 12 May 2013 So the top three in the premier league will be changing managers this summer albeit for different reasons along with Everton making it 4 out of the top 6 or 7. I can guess the theme of next seasons previews.
Corky Posted 12 May 2013 Posted 12 May 2013 I think it's harsh. He will leave with the fans best wishes though.
Tielemans63 Posted 12 May 2013 Posted 12 May 2013 BBC and a few others saying that he's 'to be sacked this week'. What's the point of that?!
Danno Posted 12 May 2013 Posted 12 May 2013 Terrible manager, should have won the title and he bought shit players like Javi Garcia.. Jesus Christ
KFS Posted 13 May 2013 Posted 13 May 2013 I think it's harsh. He will leave with the fans best wishes though. I left my FT to get some food, came back and thought I was reading the Knockaert thread! Heart sunk a bit!

Guest Bilo Posted 13 May 2013 Posted 13 May 2013 Ridiculously harsh. This does show why there'll never be another Ferguson, clubs are far too quick to go for the knee-jerk response of sacking a manager after one season without a trophy. Pellegrini is going to need some luck.
Fox92 Posted 13 May 2013 Posted 13 May 2013 Finish 2nd and runners up in the FA Cup. Get sacked. Highlights the fine line.
Tielemans63 Posted 13 May 2013 Posted 13 May 2013 I think that's a personality thing as much as anything else. Always got the impression that he's a prickly bugger and allegedly he's fallen out with a few people at the club. They were probably waiting for an excuse. Still an awful decision though.
Leicesterpool Posted 13 May 2013 Posted 13 May 2013 If Man City got Mourhino I think they would win the champions league within in two years I believe that.
Tielemans63 Posted 13 May 2013 Posted 13 May 2013 "Despite everyone’s best efforts, the Club has failed to achieve any of its stated targets this year, with the exception of qualification for next season’s UEFA Champions League. This, combined with an identified need to develop a holistic approach to all aspects of football at the Club, has meant that the decision has been taken to find a new manager for the 2013/14 season and beyond." An identified need to develop a holistic approach? So he didn't agree to the structural changes City have made over the past year I presume?
21st Century Fox Posted 13 May 2013 Posted 13 May 2013 His man management was lacking at times and was naive in Europe but he's a good manager. I highly expect he'll be taking over at Monaco next. If Pellegrini takes over as expected, they'll do well in Europe but it's difficult to say how he'll handle the PL. (He did have a 75% win record at Real though!)

That's probably corporate jargon for he head-butted Txiki Bergirstain.
Leicesterpool Posted 13 May 2013 Posted 13 May 2013 Benitez could also walk in, i mean it sounds like its a done deal there new manager will be named soon.
