Man City boss Mancini: I won't be supporting Chelsea against Man Utd

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is happy with the three points from victory over Fulham as Manchester United face Chelsea today.

Mancini intends to watch Sunday's Stamford Bridge showdown between Chelsea and United from the comfort of his sofa.

However, he will not be supporting Chelsea, and he does not think this result has put additional pressure on United.

"Manchester United are not under pressure," he said.

"They are used to always staying there. They are like us. We know that if we want to win this league, we should go on our way, try to win every game and not think about the other teams.

"We know we are fighting against fantastic teams. For this reason it is important to think about ourselves.

"I will be at home and I will watch the game. But I support Manchester City."
