Mancini OUT - TalkSoccer

First of all I don't think there is bad blood. The fact that he is finishing the season tell me as much.

I feel Moratti has contacted JM, and I'm not really sure what to think. But I feel this all makes sense, considering what is happening at the moment.

Quote:

Roberto Mancini has sensationally announced he is leaving Inter at the end of this season after their Champions League exit.

The Coach kept the news to himself during the interviews with Italian and foreign television stations, but at the start of his Press Conference with the Italian newspapers made the shock announcement.

“I think that these will be my last two months on the Inter bench. After four years and even if I have another four years left on my contract, I will leave Inter. I have already told the players.”

However, when interviewed moments later, Julio Cruz and Esteban Cambiasso said that the Coach had not said anything of the sort in the locker room.

Mancini was asked if the Champions League elimination to Liverpool had played a part in this incredible decision.

“No, tonight’s defeat has nothing to do with it.”

Mourinho?That would be massive.

I believe JM was going to Milan, but Milan keep on giving Carlo the vote of confidence. So I think they approached JM, to take over. Just specuation on my part, but makes sense.

Mixed on him. But sort of makes sense.

And I can't repeat myself here. Mancini is still loyal to the club, and Moratti doesn't mind him. I think he could return.

Mancini wants to go to England.

Mourinho wants to coach in Italy, namely Milan or Inter.

That would be a good move!

Mourinho and Lippi will end up in Milan. It's just a matter of who goes where now.

Well put mate. Totally agreed.

I also heard that Mancini will join Man City. Now things are falling into place. Since he protege of Sven Goran Erickson, and his son is there already.

I think this is just a mutual seperation as I said.

**sinoy1** · 11-03-2008, 11:14 PM

or Lippi in Milan and Mourinho in Inter.Exactly what Serie A needs.It'll generate the fans interest.Bring in big players *cough Drogba cough* and entertain the fans.

**Vargas_4** · 12-03-2008, 02:48 AM

I dunno why he decided this but oh well.

Great move if it happens, maybe inter can finally be a force in europe.....

**dukeofdavinci** · 12-03-2008, 09:14 AM

imo its actually not surprising or a sudden thing actually.we all have been hearing the likes of lippi, jm and others linked.so i see this was an agreed departure more then a sudden or surprise one.

saw it coming, i was very sure that inter will surely be guided by a new manager come the new 08' 09' season during the x'mas break period just before the new year.

You once again be a threat in Europe with Jose.
