The City team that won the league in the final few seconds had real character, and characters, on and off the bench. And much as I admire Pellegrini, I miss Mancinis passion. I also miss (sort-of) Balotellis insane behaviour off the pitch (I cared less for the petulance, the stamping, the lack of effort, on it). I dont think weve bought another Joey Barton (God, I hope not), but I think great teams have great personalities. Sterling is young, immature, and I hope he has a good team around him who can keep his feet on the ground, and physios to keep them on the pitchbut I hope he doesnt become too sanitized and safe. I hope that there is an element of the bad boy retained.
