Man City boss Mancini pleased with way Balotelli has settled

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is pleased with the way Mario Balotelli has settled.

Balotelli is carrying a knee injury and Mancini is keeping one eye on a busy schedule.

"We will have to see how Mario is over the next two days," he told City's website. "He has a problem in his knee, not much of one, but he won't be available for Timisoara. It's important that we try to get him ready for the Sunderland game.

"He is settling in well but he needs time. It's not easy to change clubs or meet new team mates but I know he's happy here already."
