Default Is Manuel Pellegrini Out Of His Depth?

A heavily invested in squad. A lot of money spent on average players and in a season where they should finally pull away from United for once this manager has got them just 2 points above an out of depth David Moyes United side. Looked beyond average bar their cup final this season.


So is he out of his depth?

Answer is yes. Pls confirm guys.

He did well at Villareal, failed at Real Madrid so he is probably out of his depth at Man Ctiy.

Thanks for the confirmation guys. Good to know we all know that he is. Shame he doesn't have the potential of Moyes either. Always next manager for Sheikh FC though.

Carrick been playing like an UTTER BUM so no massive loss on his CURENT FORM

De Gea
Rafa Evans Smalling Evra
Nani Fellaini Jones Adnan
Rooney
RVP

MY BODY IS READY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The fact is whether people like it or not moyes has done a GREAT JOB. Fergie left him with utter joke of a squad and then had the nerve to disrupt 2 of a handful of world class players at the club before leaving


Has given Adnan his chance which he would not have got under Fergie(Look at Pogba situation for reference)

Has Rooney playing the best all round game he ever has for us

Has started to implement a pressing game into our team (Go watch first half of Arsenal game)

Last 3 games we have looked more organised then we have for at least 2 years

Dropped bum A Giggs and Bum B Young

Although Woodward ****ed things up has actively tried to sort out a situation which Fergie avoided for 5 years in our midfield

To United fans - Without your two world class strikers you're a mid table team. You better start praying Rooney stays in January and RVP doesnt get injured, as he likes to do.

Without Ozil and Ramsey you are an average side...Chelsea without Oscar and Mata are an average side....City without Kompany and Aguero are an average side...

Really? Our back four looks solid and our team is full of flair. We're Ok dont worry about us.

Discussing Rooney with a work mate - a united fan - and we both seem to think his amazing displays maybe him trying to get himself in the shop window for a January move. Start praying

Ozil has been pretty crap in Arsenal's two biggest wins this year against Liverpool and Dortmund

that is true, Ozil is a player that usually goes missing in the big games.

Agreed. Ozil needs to buck his ideas up.
