Now the ex Manchester City´s boss, Roberto Mancini certainly will not look too much hard for his next job.According to some reports his next stop will be the French Monaco or PSG.Only a year after he won the Premier league title with Man City,Roberto Mancini was sacked this Monday.Probably the biggest reason for this,was the recent FA Cup defeat from Wigan.
Footballtarget.com brings the best and the worst moments of the Italian at the Citizens bench.
The Italian has arrived from Inter Milano on the hot bench of Man City, 19 December 2009,where he replaced Mark Hughes.Already in the first season,Manchester Blues were beaten by Tottenham Spurt on 5 May 2010 and knocked from the fourth place which led to Champions league competition.The first season of Mancini´s reign at Man City was a failure,but things started to look much better in the next one.
In August 2010, Mancini was present a lot during the summer transfer window,and he landed several new players like David Silva, Yaya Touré,Jerome Boateng and Aleksandar Kolarov. One Month later, Mancini with Man City has beaten Wigan Athletic and moved into the Premier League top four place,where the Citizens remain for the rest of the season.On March 10, 2011, Dynamo Kiev knocked Man City from Europa league which was Mancini´s first bigger failure.
One of two biggest achievements at Man City, Mancini accomplished in April 2011, when his side lifts the FA Cup trophy.This was City´s first major trophy in 35 years.In the semi-finals Man City triumphed over city rivals, Man Utd and in the final match they were better than Stoke City.
The same year, in October after having a run of 12 wins from 14 matches, Man City celebrated a high 6-1 victory over Man Utd,which was the heaviest defeat of Man Utd at the Old Trafford since 1955.
On January 2012, Man City progressed to the League Cup semi-final, after losing to Liverpool 1-0 in the first leg match.
The biggest and the most important thing for Roberto Mancini on the bench of Man City has happened on May 13 (2012) when Citizens after losing 2-1, stage a terrific comeback a to clinch the Premier League title in dramatic fashion with a 3-2 win over QPR.This was their first title after long waiting of 44 years.
Jose Mourinho´s side, Real Madrid on November 21, with a 1-1 draw sees Man City of the Champions League. Mancini’s team on May 11 (2013),thanks to Ben Watson´s late goal lose the FA Cup trophy to Wigan,while on the same weekend Manchester United has lifted the Premier league trophy.
In his reign at Man City, Mancini was active a lot during the transfer windows,landing some big names like David Silva,Sergio Aguero,Carlos Tevez, Yaya Toure,Mario Balotelli and so on,but the reason why he was sacked perhaps was and letting go of Mario Balotelli,because after that,things went bad for City.Obviously a trouble-maker the “Why always me” Mario Balotelli and Roberto couldn’t find the same “language”,and Mancini started to mix a lot the first lineup and team tactic,what in the end might be the biggest reason why Manchester City has failed to win any trophy.
