Palermo coach Devis Mangia is fed-up with questions about how he gets along with fiery president Maurizio Zamparini.

Mangia is said to have been unsettled by good friend Sean Sogliano's resignation as sports director.

Mangia gave his take on the media's continued focus on the issue, admitting it is getting on his nerves now.

"I've not heard from Zamparini, I'll [meet with him] very calmly, as always. It is right that the President expresses his thoughts, I'm not here to comment on his views but to coach the team.

"We lost, but in the first half we played the game. If we then look for controversy at all costs it can get a little tiresome."
