Ha, it really does. "Bobby Manc" is awful! I hope that one doesnt stick.

How about "Bob il costruttore"

Actually, very impressed with the aims expressed in the second article.

Mind you, not kicked a ball yet.

This is journalism, unlike The Sun (see other thread.) It's as good a piece of writing as Mancini was a footballer.

what an utter shite article that 1st one is.

"both are handsome, well dressed men"

well then they must be equal in their managerial skills,

such shite.

Marcoti is an excellant writer IMHO.....his book on Capello is absolutely superb, and he certainly knows his onions regarding Italian football

And wasn't there some talk that "Family Man" Mancini had sent his son to England to get him out of the way cos he was having an affair at the time the young un came over here?

It is good to hear positive things about Roberto from someone who knows a damned site more about him than the English scum press do but I'm not sure that there is any actual substance to the articles.

Having said all that, I was already excited, can't wait for his first game in charge, just a shame that half the defence he is trying to shore up is out injured!
