The title and relegation battles may be settled, but it is all still to play for in the fight to secure a top-four finish. Arsenal are favourites to record a victory at Newcastle which will see them secure Champions League football next season, while Tottenham are odds-on to keep up the pressure by beating Sunderland.

Roberto Mancini insists he retains a good working relationship with Manchester City's owners despite the club's slump in form.
m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.
afa has to be favourite for the Everton job now, surely :) He'll realise his ambition to live and work on Merseyside again, get the best out of whoever plays for them, maybe win some cups and be thoroughly loathed by the toffee fans. What's not to like? Go ead, Ken, gimajob!
hat is arguably the least inspiring England I have ever seen. There is not a single name in that list that makes me think I might actually want to watch this team. Not a one.

He is one of a number of solid shouts for players that look old before their time. We also have the final words on lovely D-Beck and a rejection of end of season playoffs...

'We won the Premier League maybe too quickly because usually it is four or five years for a team like City to do this.' - 'Team like City'? There are no other teams like City, Roberto, and there never have been. £930m spent since 2008, two-thirds of which came straight out of a sugar daddy's pocket? Not sure I see who you're comparing yourself with mate. I sometimes take you seriously when you talk about money, transfers, etc. but then I remember that you have more millions at your disposal than most clubs have seats, but you still find reasons why things are so difficult and why City can't be expected to compete against A, B or C. If you take a billion of an oil magnate's cash, giving you ten times what most of your competitors will ever have, you better think a bit more carefully about what needs to be achieved. Spending the GDP of a Caribbean island to win two trophies, then planning a clear-out 12 months later and more astronomical spending makes you look a bit c**p in all honesty. Long may you stay at City.

He's won an FA Cup and a Premier League in two seasons - yes, he should be taking advice from you bunch of morons who have never played the game at the top level or managed your way out of a paper bag. He tried to mix it up with three at the back, and he'll succeed with the right blend. He took Colin Warnock to the cleaners today.

It was always destined to end this way. Man City are always going to find it hard to achieve the results worth the money as opposed to real clubs through no fault of anyone but the owner and the players they buy. Managers going there will always look for the easy way out (i.e to spend money when things go wrong) to get out of a fix. And successful people always use adversity to create their future. Not crib and wail like Moancini does.

Like his compatriot, Di Matteo, Euroflop should remember there are special circumstances working for dodgy oligarchs. It is Moancini who has taken the oil-gotten gains and signed the pact with the shady shake of Abu Barclays. It's for him to decide whether he can risk another champions' league campaign - assuming Citeh qualify which is no certainty at the moment; also whether he can trust Euroflop's judgement on purchasing players after Balotelli, Dezko, Nasri etc. etc. As a United fan, I hope the Abu Dhaboo Doo (ref. Private Eye: Heir of Sorrows) shows his usual business sense and keeps Euroflop in his job! Should be even easier for us next season if he does!

Point of correction Mr Machini, lets say all managers who have access to vast amounts of transfer fees but still fail to win the league should be sacked.

He's right though... There's JT and the interim.

pure gold. Yep the other '20' clubs should sack their managers because you are gash! Yep that Moyes fella is under achieving, and that Fergie chap has been on thin ice for years, they'd have surely been given their marching orders by now if there were any decent replacements out there.....! Pleb, jog on!

So he is in a roundabout way saying that he is doing equally as well as Sir Alex?

I think the comments are starting to get to Mancini.

Mancini, I remembered you and your player said it will be 2 games. Now you are saying 3 or 4 games. If you are not concentrating on winning your own games, but waiting for United to drop points, you might be saying 5 or 6 games. And by the time it is April 8, your players may be giving the United players the "Guard of Honour"
