" I am Tired with these Managers"- Mancini
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2208661/Roberto-Mancini-blasts-Paul-Lambert-Capital-One-Cup-row.html
Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini believes his touchline row with Aston Villa counterpart Paul Lambert is typical of the attitude many opposition managers have towards him.
The pair exchanged heated words in the second half of City's 4-2 Capital One Cup defeat at the Etihad Stadium after the Italian complained to the fourth official about a tackle by Joe Bennett on Gareth Barry.
'I am tired with these managers,' said Mancini, who has had his fair share of touchline confrontations during his time in England.
'I didn't say nothing to him (Lambert). There are some managers it is better to shut up.
'I asked only if there was a yellow card - without moving my hands (Mancini has been guilty in the past of waving imaginary cards) - with the fourth official and he comes over to me.
'I didn't speak with him. I asked the fourth official if it was a yellow card because I thought the referee had forgotten his yellow cards in the dressing room.
'I don't know what is the reason. I can understand if I was talking to him but I didn't say nothing.'
Mancini added: 'I am very tired with their behaviour. Sometimes these managers go to the big stadiums and the other manager says everything and they say nothing.
'When they go to [Old] Trafford, they say nothing. When other managers talk about the referee they always sit on the bench.
'I don't like this type of behaviour.'
Lambert brushed aside Mancini's complaints, saying: 'If that's what he said then fine.
'I respect him as a manager and an ex-player.
'It wasn't really a spat. It was nothing.'
Mancini may well have been trying to deflect attention from his side's third-round exit, having reached the semi-finals in two of the last three seasons.
Despite making 10 changes from Sunday's 1-1 draw with Arsenal, the City boss was still able to field a team with combined value well over £150million, even with teenagers Abdul Razak and Denis Suarez in the line-up.
However, they twice threw away leads given to them by Mario Balotelli and then Aleksandar Kolarov after Villa old boy Gareth Barry's own goal had made it 1-1.
Gabriel Agbonlahor took the tie to extra time and added a second after Charles N'Zogbia had put Villa ahead for the first time.
'It was a difficult match because Aston Villa were a good team,' said Mancini.
Mancini needs to realize that he is in English football now and that waving the card is very irritating, even to the fans. Seems the "culture shock: has not gotten to him.
he acted like a big time small Manager there( his words), something redknapp won't even do

Lord forbid this was Wenger, the usual gimps would be up in arms about this
Mancini got thrashed, plain and simple. He should take it on the chin with a little respect and accept it
I'd love to know the cost of the City team in that game vs the cost of the Villa team. Balotelli probably cost more than half the squad

If this were Wenger
all those rats on here would call him a whiner and create threads with numerous pages how the Holy Managers of the Knight Templar Union of Federated Managers would never whine
P.S: Somebody is DEFINITELY gonna defend Mancini soon

Mancini is kind of acting like a big manager vs small manager here...
But, most of english managers are big headed... Pulis anyone??

Maybe he's getting tired with his job, then, because he's complaining about something here that's a part of it.
