A draw would have been fair IMO - Was even on the whole.

Congrats to Wigan though.

Thank god that rancid old fart is finally retiring.

This is the end of United's glorious era. Their great teams in the past have come and gone, but fergie has always been there to keep things ticking over.

I think that david moyes will do alright at United. They'll still play good football, they'll challenge in europe, and for the title, and they'll win domestic cup competitions. But the lions share of titles over the next decade will go to city and chelsea.

This is a golden opportunity for city. The 2 main rivals, united and chelsea will be bedding in with new managers, they are already settled with a proven manager. Back mancini, and I guarantee they'll win the title next season.

But no, like a bunch of f*cking idiots, they'll sack Mancini, and then they've set the tone. That's it, they'll be just like chelsea, stuck in a perpetual rot of chasing instant success and changing manager everytime it doesn't happen, exasperating the situation further.

Actually, scrap that, man united will still take the lions share of titles over the next decade because every time chelsea and man city lose a game they'll be on the verge of sacking the manager. Stupid, stupid clubs.

In fairness to Chelsea and Abramovic, sacking managers left right and centre has hardly meant a lack of silverware (not saying I agree with him btw)

That's because of player power. When the players get what they want they perk up again, that's resulted in about 2 fa cups and a champions league.

They want to create a dynasty but they'll never do that by getting rid of managers so often.

Do you think Man City should have sacked Mark Hughes?

You agree with the sacking of Hughes because the decision has been proved to be correct. But Man City were improving under Hughes and on target to reach decent goals under him.

But they felt they could get a superior manager in and they did.

You say that Mancini is a proven manager. Personally I think his record has shown he's not a top level manager.

IMO they are just doing to Mancini what they did to Hughes.
