La volata per il titolo nell’ English Premier League si accinge a vivere l’ultimo atto. Ovviamente le protagoniste saranno le due formazioni di Manchester, con il City di Mancini, a questo punto, favoritissimo. Qualora i “Citizens”, infatti, dovessero vincere, per lo United anche tre punti sarebbero inutili se non accompagnati da un numero di reti impressionante. Mancini, intanto, ha affermato che la sua squadra ha giocato il miglior calcio mentre dallo spogliatoio dello United arrivano voci tutt’altro che rassegnate. Allerta ordine pubblico per quanto concerne Euro 2012; questa volta sono le possibili aggressioni di teppisti ukraini a preoccupare.
Roberto Mancini says Manchester City have played best football
Manager Roberto Mancini says he trusts his Manchester City side to finish the job and be crowned champions on Sunday.
But even if they fail, the Italian insists his side have played the best football in the league this season.
Mancini’s men are ahead of Manchester United on goal difference and will win the Premier League title by equalling their neighbours’ result.
“If we win, it’s better to stay far from Mario (Balotelli) because it’ll be very dangerous!”

“I trust them 100 per cent,” said the Blues boss. “They know they have everything in their hands.”
He added: “They’ve worked very hard and fought for every game, for one year, and in this championship that is very hard.
“I think in the end the team that wins deserves to win, always.
“We have played the better football, 100%, even if we don’t win, we played the better football.”
City lead heading into the final day despite slipping eight points behind neighbours United following defeat at Arsenal on 8 April.
Mancini’s side meet QPR at the Etihad while United must travel to Sunderland.
“I think that, at that moment, it was good for us because it took off all the pressure,” said Mancini, who believes City would be worthy winners having led for most of the season and scored the most goals.
“Like all teams, it is impossible to play well every game for one year. We had one month where we had a problem – we didn’t play well, we conceded easy goals, we didn’t score. This is normal, I think.
“But we always believed, also when we were eight points behind.
“Against United and Newcastle we played really well, as a strong team mentally, and I think we should do the same on Sunday.”
Ferguson and QPR boss Mark Hughes have described Mancini’s tactics as negative, with Ferguson claiming City played with an Italian mentality by switching to a five-man midfield during their crucial derby victory on 30 April.
City since losing at Arsenal
- City 4-0 West Brom
- Norwich 1-6 City
- Wolves 0-2 City
- City 1-0 Man United
- Newcastle 0-2 City
“I agree with him,” joked Mancini, who later said the same about Hughes. “I’m Italian, I can’t change my mentality, and he’s Scottish.”
But he added of Ferguson: “I think he’s the best manager in the world.”
And should Mancini beat the legendary United boss to the title, he will be staying well clear of controversial striker Mario Balotelli.
“If we win, it’s better to stay far from Mario because it’ll be very dangerous!” he quipped.
Patrice Evra backs Manchester United to produce title shock
Manchester United defender Patrice Evra still believes his side could snatch the title from rivals Manchester City on the final day of the season.
United, second on goal difference, require either City to slip up at home to QPR or an improbable landslide win over Sunderland to edge back in front.
“Maybe people will say I’m crazy, but I still believe,” said Evra.
“I know destiny is not in our hands. If we want to keep believing in the miracle, we have to beat Sunderland.”
United’s eight squandered points
- 30 April v Man City L 1-0
- 22 April v Everton D 4-4
- 11 April v Wigan L 0-1
Manchester City have collected 52 from a possible 54 points at Etihad Stadium this season, while QPR have lost 13 times on the road this season – more than any other side in the top flight.
But, after United’s 2-0 win over Swansea on Sunday, United manager Sir Alex Ferguson told fans at Old Trafford this weekend could mark “the biggest celebration of our lives”.
He also suggested relegation-threatened Rangers, managed by former Manchester City boss Mark Hughes, would not lack motivation to ruin the leaders’ party plans.
Evra believes the dynamics of the season’s final day – with all matches kicking off at 15:00 BST on Sunday – will allow Manchester United to heap extra pressure on their rivals.
“If we score first, maybe the City fans in the stadium will start to be nervous,” he added.
“When you are nervous, you rush things and you don’t do the things you want to do. That’s why I still believe, but we must make sure we are ready against Sunderland.”
In their own game at home to QPR on 8 April, United won 2-0 to move eight points clear with six matches remaining.
Evra believes United’s late collapse in the 4-4 draw against Everton three weeks later, a game in which he headed against the post with his side leading 4-2, marked the point the title race tipped back in City’s favour.
“If you play for Manchester United, you have to accept the pressure,” he said. “You have to win every year no matter what you do. People don’t care, you have to win.
“It’s going to hurt a lot. If we see City celebrate, people will say it’s the end of the Manchester United empire.”

Police issue Ukraine thug alert to fans
Fans travelling to watch England in action at Euro 2012 have been warned that racist Ukrainian football thugs could provide a “flashpoint” for violence.
English supporters and players are more likely to be on the receiving end of abuse than causing any trouble at next month’s tournament, a police chief has said.
Fewer than 3,000 fans are expected to be at the team’s opening matches, with more than 2,000 England supporters issued with banning orders to stop them travelling.
South Yorkshire Assistant Chief Constable Andy Holt, who is leading the UK police involvement in the tournament, said there is no intelligence that English fans are planning trouble.
Mr Holt is travelling to Ukraine and Poland with 23 other UK officers to try to help as many as 8,000 local armed police deal with fans.
He said football hooliganism remained more of a problem in the Ukraine after England had made great efforts to clean up its act in recent decades.
But he said it was a concern was that Ukrainian fans would bombard fans and players with abuse at matches to “prompt retaliation”.
“It may be a flashpoint for some sort of disorder if fans feel they are being unfairly treated,” he added.
The UK team of officers at the tournament, led by the Association of Chief Police Officers, will fly to the Ukraine and Poland in time for England’s first game against France in Donetsk on June 11.
A team of 18 will remain in the Ukraine while six will be deployed in Poland.
Mr Holt said: “The reality is that the overwhelming majority of England fans heading to Euro 2012 are there to support the national team and the game of football.
“Those who engage in any trouble must realise that they will feel the full force of local policing laws. Anyone involved in football-related trouble can also expect to face a football banning order when they return to the UK.
He added: “As this is the last major sporting event ahead of the Olympics, the eyes of the world will be on England fans and we will hopefully be showcasing the best of our supporters at home and abroad.”
