Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  E whakapono ana a Manuel Pellegrini kaore te wa o Manchester City i "he aitua" ahakoa ko nga toa o te Pirimia Pirimia kaore i taea te whakahou i a Chelsea i te whakataetae taitara. Kei te whakaekehia te rangatira o te Taone i muri i tana kitenga i tana kapa e rere atu ana i Uropi ki Barcelona mo te wa tuarua i te raupapa i te po o te Wenerei. Me wikitoria e rātou a West Bromwich Albion i te Etihad i te wā o te ata (sat) hei pupuri i te pēhanga ki te taha o Jose Mourinho, e ono ngā tohu kei mua me te kēmu kei te ringa, me te noho atu i te kohinga whai. Ko te kaiwhakahaere o Manchester City a Manuel Pellegrini e kii ana kaore i tino kino to raatau waa. Ko Pellegrini e tū ana i muri i te kaiwhakahaere o Barcelona a Luis Enrique i te wā i hinga ai rātau i te Champions League i te Rāapa. Ko Ivan Rakitic (te tuarua ki te taha maui) te kaute anake o te kēmu i tua atu i a Joe Hart i a Barcelona i wikitoria 1-0. Engari i kii a Pellegrini: "Ko te tuunga tuarua i roto i te tau katoa kaore au e whakaaro he aitua. Kāore mātou i te waru, te iwa, te tekau rānei. Ko Chelsea anake i pai ake i to tatou kapa. Ka rite ki taku i korero ai ki nga kaitakaro, kei roto tonu tatou i tenei whakataetae. E iwa ngā kēmu e toe ana, ā, me whakamatau au ki te tākaro pai, me mahi hoki i tā mātou e hiahia ana mō tēnei kapa, arā, kia noho ki te tūranga tuarua. 'Kāore anō au e whakahoki mai, kaua rawa e whakarere, nā te mea i roto i te whutupaoro ka taea ngā mea katoa, nō reira ka whawhai mātou ki te pupuri i te taitara tae noa ki te mutunga. Kāore a Yaya Toure (māui) i ora i te wā ki te aro atu ki a West Brom i te Rāhoroi i muri i tana tukinga ki a Barcelona. I whakahētia ngā kaitākaro o City mō tō rātau kore kaha i te hinganga o te wiki whakamutunga ki Burnley engari i tohe a Pellegrini kia mutu te kawenga ki a ia. I tāpiri atu ia: <unk>Ko taku kawenga na te mea ko au tonu te whiriwhiri i te tīmatanga o te XI, ko au te whiriwhiri i te kapa me te whiriwhiri i te huarahi e pai ana matou ki te takaro.<unk> I te pātai mēnā e pai tonu ana ki a ia te mahi, ka whakahoki ia: <unk>Māori. I nga ra katoa e pai ana ahau ki a ia. Ki te kore koe e pai ki te tākaro i te Champions League ki a Barcelona, e whawhai ana mō te taitara i te Pirimia Pirimia, e noho ana ki tēnei kapa, e noho ana i te whakataetae pai rawa atu o te ao, me haere koe ki te tākuta.<unk>
E whakaae ana a Manuel Pellegrini ka mutu pea te wa o Manchester City me te kore tohu. I tukitukia i te Champions League i te 16 whakamutunga e Barcelona. E waru ngā tohu kei muri i a Chelsea i te Pirimia Pirimia me te iwa o ngā kēmu e toe ana.
