[video] Mancini Reflects On The Fulham Win

Roberto Mancini isn’t a happy bunny. Again.

“It was out of the box and it was no foul, no penalty. There were a lot of mistakes in the past four games. We accept this, but we’re not happy. We can do nothing, only continue to play.”

“Against Fulham here it is always difficult,” the City boss said. “They are a good team, have good players, a good manager. This pitch is always tough for us but the problem is we were 1-0 down and I don’t know why because the penalty was not a penalty. Sometimes it is a penalty but the referee is there to take a decision. Sometimes he does well, sometimes he can do bad.

“If we go to watch all our last three games, against Stoke it was handball (for Peter Crouch’s goal). I don’t know why the referee that was behind didn’t give it. Against Arsenal there was one penalty [we should have been awarded].

“We were 1-0 down and Fulham didn’t shoot on goal for the first 20 minutes. That was a problem but I am happy because the players continued to play well, kept calm and we had a lot of chances.”

Well now, when it comes to football, one man has for many years been the most noticeable, the most controversial, and occasionally the most successful blogger this country has ever produced. His pithy words and abrasive style make him as famous off the pitch as he is on it. This man is Escapini. "I love football. Football she's a cruel mistress. She's, she's more than a mistress. She's a wife, she's a mother, she's a daughter, she's an errant child. She's a… she's a… she can make you laugh, she make you cry. She can bring tears me eyes. She can bring blood to me shoulders. She can bring a kettle to the boil." "Cause football is about nothing, unless it's about something and what it is about, is football."
