Man City boss Mancini again admits Cavani admiration

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has again confessed his admiration for Napoli star Edinson Cavani.

Cavani was linked with City during the summer.

Mancini said of their Champions League group rivals: "Napoli are a good team. They play good football, they have a good group of players, and they have fantastic ­supporters. This game will be very hard for us.

"I like (Edinson) Cavani. He is a ­fantastic striker who works for the team.

"But they also have (Ezequiel)Lavezzi, (Goran) Pandev and (Marek) Hamsik - and those players are very dangerous."
