Mattsson: Looks like City tired of him – Expressen

Claudio Ranieri Leicester refuses to let go of his title chance.

But Sergio Agüeros body language said it, we all thought, the sooner Manuel Pellegrini disappear from Manchester City, the better.

Many players get upset when they will be replaced. It belongs to the sport as much as own goal, masking the corner flag and Arsene Wenger’s eruption on the fourth referees.

Still, I can not help but read into more Sergio Agüeros burning gaze as Manuel Pellegrini chose to pick out Wilfried Bony in 64 minutes at his expense.

There was a frustration that testified more than that Aguero was a bit grumpy. Rather, it was so Aguero allowed himself to become a mouthpiece of entire Manchester City squad, for the whole of Manchester, indeed, for most of England.

The message put forward? That you are tired of Manuel Pellegrini.

City did not disastrous effort against Leicester. Kevin De Bruyne continued with their smart recorder both along the grass and over the back line. Raheem Sterling created a few great locations on its own – including a nice takedown plus shots in the first half.

But City, in this respect derived from the indefensible slappe Yaya Toure in midfield, see Never lift seriously this season. And ultimately, the responsibility of Pellegrini. He can not inspire or motivate his players enough to justify that he is one of football’s most coveted jobs.

This is a season in which Chelsea have failed, Arsenal continue to fall victim to its own unevenness and Manchester United lost all direction under Louis van Gaal. All the conditions are there for the City to be able to run home this league.

Still, no one in the team to care fully. Players lumbering around on the floor and wait for Pep Guardiola to take over in the summer. Manuel Pellegrini wandering to and fro along the sideline and counting the days until he gets fired. The end result – if no decisive change occurs – will be another one in the warm season in the owner’s family Mansour’s auspices.

As said City was not miserable. And Aguero should have got at least a penalty.

But I missed that Geisten as a title contender should not have to look for in an away game against Leicester.

Then a really top teams just go in there and show the cocky upstart exactly what

separates a true title contender from an imaginary one.

Claudio Ranieri was unnecessary, almost flirtatious defensive before the match at the King Power stage. Despite the low three points ahead of his opponent pressed the demo coach of their team’s underdog status and described this season as nothing short of a “miracle”.

But there is no miracle that a stable squad spiced with a few quite spectacular talent playing good football. And the fixed stars Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy continued yesterday to show that the resistance does not matter – both quality and disrespect is still there.

Still, I can not agree to reclassify Leicester as a genuine title candidates, although populist in me might like it. Ranieri gangs play right now at the absolute peak of their capabilities. Both Arsenal and City are still waiting to reach its full potential this season.

I sense after all a boring, predictable end to this particular tale.
