http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Mancini not affected by Manchester City’s defeat to Chelsea
Manchester City manager, Roberto http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786.
The loss proved to be City’s first loss in the Premier League season and many believe that City’s fall from grace is now going to take place sooner, rather than later.
City are still at the top of the league table, but their loss sees them sit just two points above Manchester United, who continue to maintain the pressure on the team.
When talking about the match, the manager is quoted to have said: “This defeat changes nothing for us”
“We know we lost this match but the season is very long and very hard.”
The manager strongly feels that his side didn’t deserve to lose the game, since they were playing good football during the game. At the same time Mancini is well aware of the fact that his side are now going to face Arsenal next week and that is going to
be a massive test for his side.
"We did not deserve to lose this game but we did lose and it is finished now. Our next game against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 is difficult and we need to focus on that.”
Mancini, just like every other City player is still arguing over the fact that his side deserved a penalty when Jose Bosingwa took out http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Silva-c10601 in the area. However, despite the claims from the City players during the game, the referee went on to wave
play on.
The manager then went on to add: “There was a big penalty and everyone in the stadium saw the penalty. The referee was very close but didn’t see it.”
The manager also went on to admit that Chelsea celebrated extensively in the tunnel following the game, but cleared the air as he admitted that there were no exchange of words between the two teams after the game.
City’s loss to Chelsea came in a rather dramatic manner. The Manchester side went on to take the lead in the 2nd minute of the game, but found themselves trailing with just eight minutes left on the clock.
With Gael Clichy picking up a red card in the second half, City’s options proved to be limited and they eventually went on to crash out and lose their first game this Premier League season.
However, the team is determined to get their name back on top and will be looking to go all out when they take on Arsenal next week.
