Man City boss Mancini: I've plenty of time to prove myself - look at Fergie!

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini insists he doesn't feel under pressure over his job future.

Mancini tried to make light of suggestions he is now under even greater pressure to defend the Premier League crown.

He said: "I don't know this. You need to ask him (owner).

"I am happy with my job in two years here.

"I think that when you work and when you beat a team - sometimes you can have also a difficult moment.

"You can't win all the games and sometimes you can lose important games like in the Champions League, but this is normal for being on the top for a long time.

"Also Ferguson won his first trophy after seven years and his first Champions League after 14 years. I have another 12 years to win a Champions League!"
