The Man(uel) from Chile – he say yes!

What a surprise hey? Didn’t see this one coming…

Anyway, there are of course already some interesting facts and some ‘funnies’ out there about our new Manager; some of which I’ll go on to include. But in the mean time, here are just a few things that might not be ‘out there’ in the last 24-hours regarding our new Manager.

1. He looks a bit like the Irish comedian Dave Allen.

Manuel Pellegrini

2. He likes fish. Rafael Aguilar, the owner of the fish restaurant in Malaga where Pellegrini was a regular visitor, was quite upset at the news that he would be losing Manuel’s custom.

Rafael Aguilar - Gutted!

However, here are a few seafood restaurants in & around Manchester where Manuel might be interested in dining out:

Australasia

Chaophraya
Ocean Treasure 235
The Grill on the Alley
Livebait
Fahrenheit

Other fine seafood restaurants are available in & around Manchester…so you’ve got lots of choice Manuel!

3. Manuel is going to have to spend some time in the recording studio, recording some Metrolink tram announcements. Do you think anyone has told him this yet?

Erm…that’s about it really. You can get the rest of the facts 'n' stuff from other sites.

Now for some songs

Taken from City’s Facebook page (for those who know me, they know that I hate Facebook – it was my wife who informed me about these and as they were very good indeed, as much as it pained me to both have a look and include them; I felt that I just had to...)

Lets all have a disco, Silva, Navas, Isco. Yaya-Ya-ya, Yaya-YA-ya.

Lets all have a party, Aguero and Cavani. Yaya-Ya-ya, Yaya-YA-ya.
Lets all drink Lambrini; celebrating Pellegrini. Yaya-Ya-ya, Yaya-YA-ya.

Bradley Ashton sensibly added: “I hope we sign Cavani and Isco now…”

Pellegrini woah, Pellegrini woah. He came from sunny Spain, to manage in the rain.

Pellegrini, woah…

You put Isco in, Kolo out, in-out, in-out, you change the team about. You do the Pellegrini and you turn around; that's what it's all about. Woooooah-Pellegrini, wooooooah-Pellegrini. Wooooooah-Pellegrini. Knees bent, arms stretched, raa-raa-raa.

And last, but certainly not least…

It could have been Moyes…it could have been Moyyyyyyes. We're lucky B**tards; it could have been Moyes.

What ever happened to, "Here we go, here we go, here we go..." after we scored a goal? It's a classic and must surely be brought back!

Bon-voyage

So our new man is in and apart from taking the time to conduct an interview for MCFCTV – introducing his backroom staff along the way – he’s now off for a brief holiday. In fairness to him, he does need to 'top up' that tan before Manchester starts the process of washing it all away…making him look even MORE like Dave Allen!
