Mancini is the man 8)

Im not sure that citys owners think he is the man judging by the talk of him been nothing more than a stop gap till the summer.
He has started well though but it has been a pretty easy couple of games to start with, i would have expected city to beat both Stoke and Wolves if Hughes had still been in charge.

So The Sun newspaper and other shite like that, know what our owner wants and see him as a stop gap ::)
All the media are shittin it that we might gate crash the SKY 4
The start of the Wolves game we were pretty shit, then Mancini changed the formation and we looked much better. Hughes would have just kept it the same

Im not one to believe what the papers say but Hiddinks agent did come out and say he was contacted and asked if he wanted the job which started all the rumours about Hughes position. No doubt they also went after Mourinho and if he became avaliable they would more than likely do it again.
As for the sky 4 i dont think anyone is against it getting mixed up, i for sure dont mind. Who ever finishes in the top 4 will finish there on merit.
I think city fans in general just need to get things in to perspective, only 4 months ago adebayor and hughes were the men. What exactly do you expect from them this season and next ?

ALEX FERGUSON thinks Leeds could be back in the Premier League in a couple of years - and he will welcome them with open arms.
Manchester United and their old rivals renew hostilities when they meet at Old Trafford tomorrow for what promises to be a feisty FA Cup third-round tie.
And Fergie admits he has missed the fallen Yorkshire giants since they were relegated from the top flight back in 2004.
Simon Grayson has got Leeds back on track and hopes are high this War of the Roses could be back on the Premier League fixture list in the near future.
United boss Ferguson said: "I don't think they will be too far away from the Premier League in the next couple of years. They look to be an absolute certainty for the Championship next year.
"The motivation that is coming from the manager means they have a great chance of being in the Premier League in the next couple of years.
"I don't have to spell out what Leeds have meant to Manchester United over the years. It would be a fantastic, feisty occasion every time we have met.
"It always carried a degree of hostility which meant we had to tell the players to behave themselves on the pitch because there was no need to add to the problems off the pitch.
"Leeds are bringing 8,000 fans and it is going to be a busy day for the police and it will be a brilliant atmosphere.
"When we used to play Leeds, I used to enjoy the games. The atmosphere was always electric."
United are strong favourites to make light work of the runaway League One leaders but Fergie has been impressed by what he has seen of them.
He added: "I watched Leeds against Liverpool in the League Cup and they did really well.
"Simon Grayson has done a fantastic job. He has instilled great motivation in his team and they have not let him down."
