Tevez did refuse to come on.

I think Berbatov should have started the game...................at centre back.

According to Mancini he is 'finished' at the club. Hopefully thats the last we see of him in England.

l agree totally and also remember that Mancini made him captain last season so l also think that Mancini's judgement has to be called into question as well.

My response was to the first part of your post, which seemed to be saying that there was a good chance that Norwich would win from the previous post. My point was that one drawn game doesn't end the season.

Easy enough to say Tevez did refuse to come on without actually knowing what happened and just believe the crap that comes out of Mancini's mouth. It's clear to me players are unhappy with Mancini's way of things if you take a look at Dzeko's mood towards him last night.

A key ingredient of being a good manager is not just tactics but as SAF has shown in letting the players know who is boss at the end of the day and as the old saying goes players are there to play and managers are there to boss and tell the players what he wants them to do.

But this will not be a easy game given their current form and sometimes you can rest too many players.

And good news is that Chamberlain has just given them the lead.
