Pellegrini for manager of the year. Yaya Touré should be the player of the season. Roll on the world cup and a summer of speculation about Suarez, ending in a 70 mil move to Real.

Spurs did well with the Bale money this year - did they scrap Europa ?

Got to take my hat off to City, when it came down to the crunch they just managed to get the one extra win that Liverpool didn't. But I am so glad that what happened in the Palace match did not matter in the end. If we City had of drawn today and we lost the league because we threw away a 3 goal lead at Palace I would have been distraught.

Really happy though with the season and well done to Rogers. When you do not have a lot of strength or depth on the bench and a defense that leaked more than the titanic after saying hello to an Iceburg, I think he did a great job pushing City to the last game and finishing second ahead of Chelsea.

Pulis or Rodgers for Manager of the Year - both done brilliant jobs for their respective clubs this season. If either won it would be fully deserved

Rodgers ahead of Pellegrini, really?

Other than absolute bias to your own team I can't see why you would think that?

2 trophies in his first season in the country.

Because I would expect Pellegrini to be up there winning the title with his team

Rodgers has taken us from 8th one season into 2nd and challenging for the title down to the last game.

If the manager of the year is the one that wins the title then yes Pellegrini wins

When Mourinho arrived in this country and won the League Cup and Premier League in his first season he was lauded as the second coming!

His team? Similar situation to Moyes in terms of inheriting a team IMO. Very impressive to win the self styled "best league in the world" in his first season.

FWIW I would have Pulis.

You are one of the most one eyed supporters I've ever come across, at least you are consistent I guess :cheers:

I think you can make a good case for Rodgers,Pulis or Pellergrini. Personally I feel Rodgers took himself out of the running after the Chelsea & Palace game.
It's only manager of the season tho,so I'll not loose any sleep over it.

My thoughts exactly - and for 3 quite different reasons.

On the pro side..
Rodgers making a team with potential but perennial 'failures' for the last 20+ years to title contenders.
Pulis has taken a relegation bound team to mid table with some flair.
Pellegrini has managed to keep the huge egos in his side under control, even when under considerable pressure.

On the nay side..
A couple of key games where Rodgers was either clearly out-thought or managed the game poorly
Pulis's effort wasn't over the full season
With the money and quality of player Pellegrini had at his disposal.....though Sparky couldn't.

I'd go for Pulis - because he's done it with a pretty average team, making them all stars as opposed to having a couple of stars that other teams fear.

Pellegrini not for me, I could have won the league with that team. Personally I would nominate Ritchie barker. He was doing an incredible job and looked to be taking Portsmouth straight out of the league at the first attempt until he was so cruelly sacked..:whistle:

In all seriousness I'm a bit surprised no ones mentioned Pochetino. Taken a team from relegation fodder towards the end of last season, to a team that at one stage looked to be challenging for a possible europa league spot, without spending silly money.

You can get pills for that terrible affliction, Patrick. Ever thought about speaking about Spurs? You know, your own team.:thup: Congratulations to Man City.:thup:

Well as spurs werent going to win the title i dont see how talking about them is relevant to this thread,. If you want to start a new thread to discuss spurs then be my guest i'll gladly chip in, while you are there you can start one about LFC bottling it when 7 points from 3 games woulds have seen them win the league.

Now, now Patrick, don't let the bitterness levels rise again. Have you planned any trips in the Europa league for next season - White hart lane would be a start, they've built 3 new stands since you last went. Just so it doesn't catch you out - You can't pass back to keepers anymore - probably why we haven't won it for so long. :whistle:
