Man City No2 Kidd: Mancini will demand more next season

Manchester City No2 Brian Kidd has warned their champion players not to rest on their laurels.

Kidd says manager Roberto Mancini will demand even better next season - just like Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.

"They're two great managers," Kidd said. "Sir Alex Ferguson is a great manager and I think Roberto Mancini is a great manager.

"The boss is similar in a lot of ways in that he is not afraid to make big tough decisions and he can handle big players.

"Now, enjoy the night, but tomorrow it is all forgotten. He has got to look at his players like Fergie many years ago and say 'who is hungry, who wants more of it'.

"And that's how you look at your players and say do they want it or are they going to get complacent. I think if they get complacent they're not going to be here long with the boss."
