    Don't have much of an opinion on him as a
    manager, outside of applauding him for the way he dealt with Mario Balotelli at City. I do recall him saying that Celtic Park wasn't what it once was during 2015, when we played Inter. The fans packed it that night and it was quite memorable for me. He may have been right, but that comment rubbed me the wrong way.

    Not to be forgotten is the fact that we have :brendy: and I'm very :brendy: about it. Very confident he'll be here for 10 in a row and beyond.

    If Celtic were to build a team strong enough to regularly compete in the Champions League, I might decide to manage them one day.


    *, what makes you think that's your decision?

    It may be that because English is his second language, he didn't mean it as it sounded.

    If that's the case, he's welcome. If not, then that is not the attitude I'd want for a manager, no matter how good he is.

    Always been an arrogant *.
    If the position ever becomes available he might be considered but I personally wouldn't want him.

    what a difference a few months makes. If we were in for him before brendan cme, we'd ll have jumed at the chance however now that brendan is here and doing well, Mancini doesnt quite rank well lol. He'll be an old man by the time brendan leaves thou so no point in considering this.

    I like him but he comes across as an arrogant * there.

    "I might decide to manage them" as if he can pick and choose when it pleases him.

    Nae danger Robbie.

    No chance. If we happened, by some miracle to behind someone in the league, he'd probably want to switch sides . . . . . .

    When Brendan does go this is the level of replacement we should aim for. Just look at his CV .

    You'd be in the vast minority in that case.

    Would rather have Brendan.

    Though if Brendan does leave in 4-5 years' time then Mancini would not be the worst replacement.

    We're usually linked with Owen Coyle, Mick McCarthy etc.
