Haha so funny, city so bad.

Yeah huge bets went on Pellegrinni becoming city manager yesterday. He is gone, they looked 2nd best all over the park in that game.

Hopefully that's a consolation for their relegation.

ManCity is so terrible, when you look at how much Money they spend. They spend 30M on players that only sit on their bench. Most english teams just have terrible managers. Such a waste of money would be impossible in the Bundesliga.

Nice one Wigan, might be a bit late to focus on the league now though.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Mancini get sacrificed now, with all the talk about Pellegrini arriving. He looked like a man on his way out after the game.

Huge congrats to Wigan. Hope they can stay up now as well.

I bet Martinez has the Everton contract on a silver platter after this.

So...

Moyes to Man U
Mourinho to Chelsea ?
Martinez to Everton ?
Pellegrini to Man City ?

And expecting many many many big transfers for the summer. Going to be an interesting summer for clubs looking to improve big time, and next season would definitely be all eyes on Moyes. Can't wait for next season already, even though there's still 4th spot and 3rd relegation spot to be confirmed. >.<

What an epic result :D, today was an awesome day for football. Now for the SLB Porto needlematch to decide the Portuguese League, then some basketball playoffs to finish

Feel so good for Dave Whelan.

The English game just seems to have the most romance in it. It appears to be so much less inevitable and mechanical than other leagues.

I'm already sick of some fans declaring Martinez some sort of footballing genius. Yes under him Wigan get some decent results at the end of the season, but he's the manager that keeps them in the relegation zone from August to about April every year.

Maybe someone ought to tell him when the season starts.

Great game between Porto and Benfica.

BTW wigan have the lowest finances of the EPL. Looking at what Wigan have at their disposal the fact that they even stayed up is a small miracle and with often good football to show for it. I do agree that maybe getting results earlier on with some bad football would be a better idea, but it worked for im the last couple seasons.

edit: But if you were to ask Martinez himself he would likely agree with you that he hasn't done the best job at wigan.

Martinez isn't some football messiah, but you'd be crazy not to call him a really good manager. Owned the shit out of City tactically all game long, and keeps a club with minimal finances up in the PL year after year. He deserves a chance at a team with a better budget and troop.

Yeah, I just checked it, he's the first scorer with "only" 203 goals, that must mean chelsea didn't have a prolific scorer for many years.

Pandemona/scak why is that explain pls, lolol.

203 goals is not THAT low of a number, he would still be 3rd in Barcelona's goalscorer ranking for example. Of course Messi scored 300+ goals in half a career ^^
