Manager’s End of May/End of Season Review
With the title already gone and second looking like an unrealistic finish, the pressure was off for the final three games and that proved to be an advantage to us as we picked up 7 points and Arsenal slipped up twice and we managed to finish 2nd. We won our final two games at the Etihad Stadium, and a draw away at Burnley days before the FA Cup Final proved to be vital to us finishing second.
The month came with a massive boost to the Club as we won the FA Cup with a convincing performance in the Final against Aston Villa that finished 3-1. We played brilliantly at Wembley and after a good Cup run we deserved to lift the trophy.
My player of the month goes to James Milner. Milner proved why he manages to force himself into every squad this month and capped a brilliant season for him with a spectacular 25 yard strike in the Cup final against his former Club.
Now for my end of season review, in terms of the Premier League I can’t help but be disappointed, we’ve lost too many games this year and not been clinical enough in front of goal on many occasions and failing to find the net at all. Despite not having the best year we’ve still had some great moments in the league, we won the last derby at the Etihad 1-0 thanks to an Aguero penalty and we broke records in beating Villa 12-2 in an unbelievable game, with Aguero bagging a hat-trick and Cavani scoring five.
In the domestic Cup competitions I couldn’t be any happier, we won the season opening Community Shield 1-0 against Arsenal and we then went on to beat United in the Final of the Capital One Cup 2-1 and then beat Aston Villa 3-1 in the Final of the FA Cup, so we will be bringing three trophies over to the Al Mubarak Arena.
In Europe we had a disappointing exit in the Quarter-Final’s, losing 4-2 on aggregate to a very good Juventus team. We cruised through the group stages with 5 victories, including a 7-0 win against Maribor and then eased through the First Knock-Out Stage with a stunning away win at Lyon but we have to be disappointed not to go further than the Quarter Final’s and we will have to improve next year.
My player of the year is a tough one this year, Wellington Nem had a great year again, Aguero and Cavani linked up well up front, as did De Rossi and Toure in the middle of the park, and Kompany was a dominant figure at the back but for the second year running I am going to give the award to Matija Nastasic. Matija has been a rock alongside Vincent and both of them deserve this award but Matija just edges by the fact he has scored 11 goals this season, including some bullet headers and a couple of tap ins. Defensively I can’t fault him at all, he has never made a mistake and rarely puts in a poor performance, he wins everything in the air and is composed on the ball.
