No matter. What is done, is done. I don't see any point looking back, the new season is my focus

Mancini's biggest error was not backing Balotelli. He treated him dreadfully.
Balotelli is a central striker but only played there about 20% of the time, and then Mancini criticised him saying he should do better when he was on the left wing.
It was telling he scored in the games he was played up front. And then dropped again.
A side-note to the same point, Mancini's rotation policy was bizarre. He would chop and change up front (partly because 4 strikers was too much) constantly, but would play Yaya every single game to the point of exhaustion.

Well with us down from 4 to 2 strikers, we only need 1 as 4 is too much, given we should be playing with just the 1 next season.
I personally, would just get a young guy and have Aguero as main striker, Dzeko as next guy (would help him as he likes being *the* main man and not 4th choice).
