Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini hopes the local media back off in their criticism of the club's transfer policy.
Mancini says having six City players in the England squad is proof they're doing right by the local game.
He told City's website: "I believe it is important that we have that because of the English mentality. I want the core of the squad to be Englishmen, and we have signed English players despite what sometimes gets said by the media."
