Pundit, The Bandwagon Jumping Bandit, Racism Prevails As Uefa Strike Again

What is it with all these Pundits constantly criticising, slamming and mocking Manchester City and their players. Would hidden agenda's explain half of the reason? Or would the fact they are all past players of the Established Elite or has been's all the more recently, be part of the reason?

The latest Bandit being Charlie Nicolas, 40 years of football and I still had to Google the guy because I didn't have a clue who he was which says it all really. Oh and I should have known he's an ex Arsenal player, the one club who have more reason than any to hate Manchester City FC. Even Thierry Henry managed a little bewildering pop at City, without digesting all the facts first.

I actually find the obscene level of bitterness, envy, hate and jealousy towards us quite refreshing and amusing. It's a sign that our club are hitting all the right bars, even while under achieving, struggling with a high volume of injuries to senior staff this season.

Nicolas is apparently a huge fan of Manuel Pellegrini, despite Manuel choosing to make public the imminent arrival of Pep Guardiola, Nicolas still feels it's affected some of our players form and performances. He particularly singles out Raheem Sterling, nothing to do with the fact he plays for Manchester City, is English and Nicolas is Scottish? It's well known that the Scottish only tolerate us Englishmen, saying that he's probably a die hard fan of his fellow countryman Alex Ferguson too.

Jamie Carragher has also been very vocal lately, lambasting Manchester City over the Pep Guardiola issue. Disrespecting the FA Cup, no mention of the fact we're down to 13 senior first team players fit.

The anti Manchester City agenda, the hate, the bitterness, the whole thing is beginning to really stink up the planet, very unhealthy situation for them. I'm almost starting to feel sorry for them all, Chelsea fans are the latest bunch of clowns to jump on the bandwagon.

Wasn't so long ago that Chelsea were the most hated club in Europe, that they we're awarded the same treatment themselves. You'd think they'd understand and relate too it but no, they feel that because they were already part of the established elite. They are entitled to be where they are and the treatment they endured was unjustified, thus giving them a justifiable right to jump on the bandwagon along with every other Manchester City hater. It's highly amusing when I here a Chelsea fan take the moral high ground and look stupid, only recently a Chelsea fan called into a radio station to vent his disgust, apparently we disrespected the FA Cup and Chelsea by fielding a youthful team.

It wasn't so long ago that we were lambasted by opposing fans and the media for killing youth, not giving them a chance and making them rot on the bench or on the fringes. Now we give 6 youngsters a chance in the FA Cup and we're public enemy no.1?

Again ignorantly no mention of the fact we only have 13 fit senior players, no mention of the fact we had a Champions League match less than 48 hours after arriving back in Manchester. No mention of the fact we had to fly out to Ukraine to play Dynamo Kiev. a travel distance over 4 times further than any other English club in Europe.

Uefa are at it again dropping the stadium ban on Dynamo Kiev after they were banned for racism, just in time for the arrival of Manchester City? Yet another slap in the face for City fans and the club, is there no bounds Uefa will go too? And they claim to support the fight against Racism? One particular football fan named Sam Lee over at Goal.com claims City fans should drop the Uefa grudge, but I beg to differ so keep it up lads, ladies and children, all Citizens of Manchester City.

I honestly can't hold back the excitement of Pep Guardiola arriving, if they hate us this much now then imagine how bad it will get under a successful Guardiola? Hold on tight guys because it's going to be a bumpy ride and there's a whole lot more to come.

Comon City, it's time to shine. Good Luck Lads.

Iheanacho Deserves To Be First 11, Pellegrini Is A Legend Already, Guardiola City Bound, Pardew? Nicolas?

First off I'd like to start with Kelechi Promise Iheanacho, I've grown rather frustrated with Pellegrini for this. Hearing how we have to be patient etc, no one was ever patient when throwing the over hyped Wayne Rooney in the deep end at Everton or Lionel Messi at Barcelona, so why Iheanacho when he's more than proven he deserves to be in the first eleven. One things for sure, Pep Guardiola has himself one hell of a young forward to nurture.I hope Kelechi is added to our Champions League roster, but fear he will miss out. Here's hoping Pellegrini will make the right choice, the lad deserves nothing less.

As much as I've said and wanted Manuel Pellegrini out over this season and last, he still has 100% respect from me for what he's achieved and could achieve. I don't think what Manuel offers is enough for Manchester City going forward though, what Pep Guardiola will bring is what I strongly believe Manchester City need. He's a young, well decorated, well respected coach who's managed the biggest player in the world in Lionel Messi. Pellegrini and Mancini before him concentrated on either defending or attacking, neither value both equally unlike Guardiola. Mancini was more defencive minded relying on Carlos Tevez and Sergio Aguero to catch opponents out whereas Pellegrini's more Attack minded leaving our defenders vulnerable. Luckily we have Otamendi because I truly believe if we didn't, then we'd probably be out of the title race by now without Otamendi and Kompany.

So Manuel Pellegrini has finally made the decision to go public, stating he will leave our club at the end of the 2015/16 season with best wishes. For the past few weeks I've been hoping for this very situation to unfold, the speculation was just frustrating to say the least. This way Pellegrini is telling us he knows where he stands and has said himself that the club have shown him nothing but respect.

Now all the speculation can be put to bed and our club can get back to work, Pellegrini has his CV to update with a possible treble winning season more than possible, our players now have to prove themselves once again before the new coach even takes over and fight too gift their outgoing coach the best leaving present he could ever wish for and go out on a high. You can be damn sure the players will know that Guardiola will be watching on his days off at Bayern, He's a methodical man that lives and breathes football,

And what better way for Pellegrini to go out than achieve an historical treble of the League Cup, FA Cup and Premier League?

Alan Pardew? The Crystal Palace Manager claims to feel for Pellegrini saying his first thought is with Manuel, then went on to say he hopes the club have done it the right way? Why feel for a coach that has won more than you ever have and has the opportunity to achieve an historical treble winning campaign? He could only wish for what Pellegrini has right now, the guy needs to feel sorry for himself instead. Wasn't long ago he was verbally abusing Pellegrini pitch side, seriously.

You'd think a Manager of a Premier League Football Club would be professional enough to be in the know, either that or just shut the hell up when they haven't got a clue what they're talking about.

On that note who the hell is Nicolas on Sky Sports? seriously who is he? in all my 40 years of breathing I haven't got a clue who he is. The guy seems to seriously think we can win the Champions League as it stands right now this season without Vincent Kompany? I honestly think we haven't a chance of winning it this season, I hope we go as far as possible but too win it? it would be a miracle and if we did I'd chain myself to the Etihad entrance until they renegotiated for Pellegrini to be resigned, if he achieved the as far as I'm concerned impossible, then he'd deserve to stay no matter what I think.

Nicolas claimed he thinks this was poor timing? What by our Club? How can it be poor timing when it was Pellegrini who made the decision to issue that he wouldn't be staying on at City next season? The club never forced him to do so, he stated himself that he was doing so to put a stop to the speculation on his position. The same speculation that was probably causing problems within our club, I'm pretty sure Manuel Pellegrini knows what he's doing more than this (just Googled him) Charlie Nicolas guy does. The idiot compares the situation to when Alex Ferguson announced he was leaving United? Do us all a favour and choose intelligent educated pundits that have a clue.

I on the other hand believe this has made our clubs position even stronger as stated here.

Onwards we March, one of the happiest Manchester City fans on the planet right now. I was slightly concerned by our clubs mounting injuries and the speculation issue but feel more optimistic.

How do you feel about what's unfolded?
