looks very likely now after the cup defeat

nothing against city but since they have spent so much on players why not get a better manager? there are so many available now.

1 fa cup win and a 'lucky' premiership title last year (gifted by qpr and winning unconvincingly by goal difference)

nothing this year.

Champions League winner Rafa Benitez
Potential Champions League winner, Bayern Munich manager Jupp Heynckes
Any manager of the 3 clubs that made City come in last in their Group Stage Champions League/
Roberto Martinez?

All got their pros and cons I know.

Seriously Mancini will never win a European Cup when he cant handle a FA Cup final with Wigan.

As rival club supporter, I am really glad Ferguson is stepping down and Mancini to remain at City, opens the door open to others. Pls let him stay.

Malaga confirm Manuel Pellegrini is leaving as Manchester City rumours grow

Manuel-Pellegrini-Malaga-2_2944244.jpg


Malaga have confirmed that Manuel Pellegrini will not be the club's coach next season to further pave the way for the Chilean to become the next Manchester City manager.

Pellegrini is the odds-on favourite to replace Roberto Mancini at City and, earlier on Wednesday, stated that he would be leaving Malaga in the summer.

The Spanish club, which reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League this season, have now confirmed Pellegrini will be moving on.

The 59-year-old has been at Malaga since November 2010 after previous spells with Villarreal and Real Madrid, and his team have two games of their season remaining, against Deportivo la Coruna and Barcelona.

He earlier outlined the reasons for his departure, and was quoted on Marca.com as saying: "My coaching staff and I are separating from Malaga but our union with this city will be eternal.

"I'm going for sporting reasons."

Pellegrini, who was speaking at a function at Malaga Provincial Council, denied earlier this month he had an agreement in place with City.

His team currently sit in the Europa League places in La Liga but are banned from European competition next season due to unpaid bills in breach of UEFA's Financial Fair Play regulations.


"I'm not leaving due to the matter of money but looking for a project that allows me to develop my profession conveniently. I am grateful to the directors of Malaga for trusting me but I think now the club must take another path."

A further one-year suspended ban was overturned on appeal and Pellegrini said: "We leave the club qualified for Europe with the mission accomplished but it is unfortunate that this project changed.

"We had a time with the club that was very rewarding. Everyone has the right to move on.

"Sunday will be my last match at La Rosaleda and will be very exciting for me.

"I'm not leaving due to the matter of money but looking for a project that allows me to develop my profession conveniently.

"I am grateful to the directors of Malaga for trusting me but I think now the club must take another path."

Meanwhile, City chief executive Ferran Soriano has been expanding on the reasons for Mancini's dismissal and, when asked what the Italian did wrong, he told CNN: "He did very good things for the club. He stayed there for three years, which is a lot of time. He brought the club to a winning club.

"Now we are just looking for the next step, the next cycle.

"We have a fantastic squad. We want to play better football and we want to continue winning.

"It is not that Mancini did anything wrong. We are just in another cycle, in another era."

In their statement that announced Mancini's departure, City referred to the need to develop a "holistic approach" to all aspects of football at the club.

It had previously been rumoured City wanted to introduce a fluid 4-3-3 style of play to all their sides, from junior level up to first team.

When asked about that matter, Soriano said: "We are looking to play very good football, very beautiful football. When we are playing good football, then we will win.

"So it is not only about winning, it is developing football that is attractive and it will be played by our main teams, our first team in Manchester, our young teams in Manchester and also our teams in New York.

"We want to share the same football concepts across all our teams."
