Fulham<\/a> boss did the same to him in November.<\/p>\nFormer City chief Hughes was visibly furious after his side’s 1-1 draw at Eastlands when Mancini refused to look him in the eye as they shook hands.<\/p>\n
Mancini played down the spat after the game but revealed he felt Hughes did the same to him after City won 4-1 at Craven Cottage on November 21. <\/p>\n
Hughes was at Eastlands for the first time since he was sacked by the club and replaced by Mancini in December 2009.<\/p>\n
Mancini said: \u201cI don’t know what he said. I heard he said something but I didn’t understand. There is no problem between us.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was like him in London. He did the same to me. He didn’t look in my face when we shook hands.\u201d <\/p>\n
When asked if that incident was in his mind when he was approached by the Welshman, Mancini added: \u201cYeah, probably.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe result is more important for me. I think he should be happy with a draw against us.\u201d<\/p>\n
City were lacklustre throughout the game and Fulham earned a deserved point as Damien Duff’s striker two minutes after the break cancelled out Mario Balotelli’s 26th minute opener.<\/p>\n
Mancini believes his side were lacking freshness due to a hectic fixture schedule and bemoaned the absence of key players through injury. <\/p>\n
Nigel De Jong, Vincent Kompany, David Silva and Adam Johnson were all unavailable and Mancini was unable to rotate his squad after Thursday night’s Europa League win over Aris Salonika.<\/p>\n
\u201cI’m disappointed with the result but I knew it was a possibility,\u201d Mancini added. \u201cThis can happen when you play every three days.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were so tired and we couldn’t score. Our strikers didn’t move.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s important that in the next days three or four players can recover to 100 per cent. Today was very difficult.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we don’t have motivation it’s a bigger problem. We’re in third position and in two cups, the motivation is very high.\u201d<\/p>\n
