I like managers who find players that dont cost arms and legs and make a really good team. Would you agree Sven relies on millions? He had 200 million at Lazio, no wonder they were great. Im not sure, lets see what money he gets in summer, hopefully he will get back over 15 million for the flops, then maybe he will be given 20 million to buy atleast 5 more players with what little he really has, then see what kind of manager he is. I do like him but looking back 10/15 games he has frustrated me with a passion, mainly stupid tactics when shit teams are there for the taking.Sven is great at building a team and he does not rely on millions but of course you need money to get good players. At Lazio he was very successful not mainly because of the money but because of the good team spirit. But Sven tactics are another cup of tea. And you are right a lot of games were painful to watch because of his strange tactics

| | End of the day, yes some of Sven's buy's haven't worked out, yes his team choice sometimes makes you scratch your head, and yes on occasion his tactics have been questionable. But.... I've been a City fan over 30 years, and some of the football I've seen this season has been the best I've ever seen at City in terms of sheer quality. On top of that this is the first season for quite some time where there's 4 games to go and we've still got summat to play for rather than EPL survival.

I just don't think it will happen. I still think it is being blown up out of all proportions.True, because it is his first season. He got the main goal which is to reach top 10. |

Im not 100% behind sven at the moment so i suspect Thaksin feels the same. Money is everything in football and he has plenty so far. Some of the performances have been shit and it does make you wonder with all that talent. Why Ireland is playing is beyond me, he has had one really really good game and that was at Old Trafford. Geovanni pisses allover him.Geovanni has experience on his side, whereas for Ireland to gain that experience he has to play. He could be great, its just a matter of wether he wants to be. His performances havn't been too great, but i would give Sven the benefit of the doubt. He is the one with all the experience of managing. I would give Sven another season at least, and evaluate next season. I would be chuffed with a 7th or 6th place finish if we performed for the rest of the games. I think asking us to be beating Everton in the table is a bit far-fetched, Moyes has been there for a long time and built an incredibly industrious team. Sven has only had half a summer to build a team (January is not the best of times to be bringing players in). We need consistency, and Sven clearly has the experience that not many other managers could match. We beat United home and away, that coupled with a 7th or 6th place finish would be fantastic. Im fully behind Sven (cue Benny  ) at this present time, I believe some people see him as the ideal scapegoat for unjust criticism. It was the same with England. Agree, we got the derby double this season and the main goal to finish in top 10. What else does Dr Thaksin wants!! |

Fuck!!  Looks like there's some truth in all this, check out the Beeb. hahahaha, I knew that because most of the news on goal.com is kind of true, not like tribalfootball.com |

I do like Sven dont get me wrong but is the team better than where we are......yes!I say YES, 100% the first team, maybe.. but i dont think we have sufficient defensive cover and the midfield is very inexperienced, all very good young players or senior players in their first premier league season. Whilst we do have a good team, so do everton, blackburn, portsmouth and villa. only their squads are more settled and have been built over time.

| Biggest non story on the planet. Chinese whispers at its finest. It really is funny watching all these journos add their own layer of bullshit to the story and print it.
