Man City: 5 Reasons Roberto Mancini Is NOT The Best Manager In England

2. Performances in Europe

Roberto Mancini has always stressed that he feels City need to improve in Europe. In his time at City, Manchester United have lost a Champion's League final, while Chelsea have won one. Even Fulham have managed to reach a Europa League final. Unfortunately for Mancini, it has been a tale of struggle to transfer his sides domestic form to the European stage.

City had the toughest group to deal with in this season's Champion's League, but you still felt with their squad, with momentum from the previous season, it was a group they would find a way past. Instead, as Glasgow Celtic were humbling Messi's Barcelona (one of the greatest teams of all time), City looked out of their depth and out of ideas. Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid coasted through, whilst City lost out on the consolation prize of a Europa League place to Ajax, winning none of their six games on the way.

Sheik Mansour has reportedly spent around £1 billion since taking over at City, while about 1 billion people around the world reportedly watched Manchester United take on Real Madrid last week. It really emphasises what City are missing out on €“ what that £1 billion was supposed to be bringing them.
