(GSM) – Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini insists he will be staying at Eastlands despite failing to qualify for the Champions League. The Italian manager is confident he will be staying as manager at the City of Manchester next season.
Despite City’s defeat to Tottenham, a result which lets City surrender their Champions League hopes to a proud Spurs side, a disappointed Mancini remains adamant that City have done a “good job”.
Asked whether he was confident about remaining manager, Mancini said: “Yes I’m confident. I don’t know but I think I stay here. Why not?
“I work here four or five months and I think when you build a house you don’t start from the roof but the basement. We work very well but we are near the roof.
“I am not a magician, I don’t have a magic wand. We wanted this (fourth) place and we tried like Liverpool, Tottenham and Aston Villa.
“When you don’t finish fourth this is football but we did a good job.”
