But when teams roll up their sleeves and put in a real shift against City, we struggle. I am not sure how much of this can be blamed on Mancini, and I think a few of the players should have a long hard look at themselves. A few in particular have not performed anywhere near their full potential (or salary): SWP, Ireland, and Toure spring to mind. The race for fourth is still wide open but I just don’t see enough steel in City to put us in serious contention. I only hope that in the summer we have a big clear out of players that, while may be extremely talented, lack the mental strength to compete at the very highest level.Nicholinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08268237728400715672noreply@blogger.com
