Fair enough.
I guess my thought process behind this is Mancini helped lead your team to its first EPL title in a long time (although, as Puff said, it wasn't on lock and there was a choke towards the end). I just don't know if a managerial change now is going to help City win the title next season, if that's their goal. While the other two major title contenders are making switches, a little continuity would be a bonus even after a trophyless season IMO.
I don't know, I think he should've gotten one more year to at least make a deeper run in Europe and get closer to the league title.
I can see why City made the move with their lofty goals and cash flow, I just don't think it was a great decision.

He isn't a good enough manager for them IMO.
He hasn't really done anything overly substantial at City. He won the league after an epic collapse from Manchester United, and barely beat Stoke to win the FA Cup.
That aside, he is poor tactically. His experimental formations earlier in the season were hysterical. He didn't even compete for the title this season. He has managed the squad poorly, something that cannot be understated. He lost to Wigan in uninspiring fashion. His European results have been simply embarrassing. 3-1 to Ajax? Just not good enough.
