New Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini isn’t bothered by the pundits who say he may struggle to adapt to the unique demands of the English games, claiming Italian managers and British players are a good mix.

He can point to Fabio Capello’s success with the national side and he is confident he can satisfy the demanding Sheikh Mansour.

“The Premier League is, for me, the best there is,” said Mancini, who revealed he had received a good luck call from ex-City boss Sven Goran Eriksson. “It is better for Italian football that there are several coaches working here.

“It is good experience. Italian managers are good technically and tactically and, coupled with the spirit and mentality of British players and clubs, it is a good mix.

“I think I can do a good job here because we have good players. The training is good and there were no problems.

“I told the players they have to believe in themselves and that we can win things if we work hard.

“The top four is the aim and I want a good run in the FA Cup too. Hopefully we can get to two finals.

“Sixth place in the league is not good for me and hopefully in a month’s time that will have improved and we will have made progress in the cups too.

“I know how important the cups are in England, in Italy they only become so at the semi-final stage.”

Thats just the softener for the hatchet job to follow over the weekend. Print parts of an interview, then make up shit. They've been at it for years now, no wonder we are getting a bit sensitive. DENY THEM ACCESS!!!
