Mancini heralds the end of difficult run
Roberto Mancini has stated that Manchester City have concluded a difficult run of fixtures, and is glad that his side are still top of the Premier League.
City have been struck down with injuries and suspensions, and have had a month of tricky domestic fixtures.
Despite this, the Italian coach feels that his team have come out of the period unscathed, and are ready to progress and challenge for honours.
“It’s important to be at the top at the moment,” Mancini is quoted as saying in Mirror Football.
“During the season, we know there are difficult moments.
“I don’t think we had a bad month in January, but we had a difficult month because this can happen with injuries, players away and players banned.
“If you have these problems, maybe it’s clear that you can’t always play very well,” he concluded.
City are two points ahead of Manchester United at the top, and face Aston Villa on Sunday.
