Sparkles Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Well Pellegrini can walk away with his head held high. Its been a shameful ,deceitful experience for him being told he was no longer required half way through the season. Then again the owners are not football people and loyalty/respect maybe are not in their vocabulary. The fact that Pelligrini got City to 4th place with Kompany,Silva,and Toure, for various reasons, not contributing a lot says it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Pelligrini got City to 4th place with Kompany,Silva,and Toure, for various reasons, not contributing a lot says it all. Pretty sure Pellegrini was wise to being standin while City chased Pep, and his contract was extended by a year as recognition for his service and it's never a good idea to start a season with a manager in his final year. My understanding is the club owners are so enamoured with Pellegrini he has been offered positions within the City group. I don't think he's been hard done by, and I would guess they club have consulted him prior to and during the appointment of Pep. He leaves highly respected at City, well liked, and I'm sure the feeling is mutual. Our Charming Man. Don't let Alfie and Carmine (have they come out from behind the sofa yet?) see your "excuses" about City's injury crisis to the spine of the team ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop trying to deflect from your own poor season and the fact your owners aren't football people. We are very happy with our owners thank you. They have given Pelle all the resources he needed and have every right to appoint a manager they made clear was our first choice before even appointing Pelle in the first place. Best to concentrate your concerns on United and LvG 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I,m with you on this one Sparkles absolutely spot on...........no interest in football at all,just have money to burn and think they can buy success.

I'm not for one second saying City don't spend big money but Van Gaal has spent in excess of £250m in a year and half. Have you not been trying to buy success? Anyway, good luck tomorrow, all that money you have spent might get you some Thursday night football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 He had the easiest job in the Premier. Former England goalkeeper Richard Wright has retired from football at the age of 38, having spent the final four years of his career at Manchester City - where he failed to make a single competitive appearance. Having joined in the summer of 2012 on a free transfer, Wright has cost City less than £2 million in wages - he earned around £10,000-per-week.

Loyal fans my ar5! I actually felt really sorry for him after all he has done for city, last game of the season at home and they have to run off to the satellite town outside Manchester rather than staying behind and thanking the manager and the team for winning another trophy and getting to the champions league semi final. Well lads. What do you reckon to United's attendance for their last game of the season and how full the stadium was for United's lap of honour.

Thanks for googling for us. ;-)Sure I also read somewhere that Nacho has the best goals per minutes played record this season in the Premier or even in Europe. Impressive eh!
