The first two years were terrible because I had to change the whole mentality of the club.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Remember, Inter were a top club. They had won \u00adeverything possible in the past, but there were many things I had to change to make them winners again. After the first two years we won \u00adeverything.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know I can do the same here that I did at Inter and win everything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added: &#8220;It is normal to be under pressure in \u00adEngland and Italy when you arrive in the last two months of the season. Every manager is talked about and their squad is \u00adexamined.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But I have a plan here and at the moment I am happy. I think in the last year we have become a good team and in the next few weeks we have the chance to \u00adreally change our \u00adfuture.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I speak to the owners and I think they are happy \u2013 but you will have to ask them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For me, it is only \u00adimportant at this moment to get into the Champions League and the FA Cup final. If you had told me at the start of the season that we would be so close to \u00adChelsea and in the semi-final of the FA Cup at this stage of the season, I would have \u00adaccepted that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>        <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/823b6c41108944_news.jpg-150x150.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Go here to see the original:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.goal.com\/en-gb\/news\/2896\/premier-league\/2011\/04\/03\/2423831\/manchester-city-would-be-crazy-to-fire-me-roberto-mancini\" title=\"Manchester City would be 'crazy' to fire me - Roberto Mancini\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manchester City would be &#8216;crazy&#8217; to fire me &#8211; Roberto Mancini<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> By Adithya Ananth 3 Apr 2011 09:02:00 Roberto Mancini, Manchester City (Getty Images) Related Links Teams Players Roberto Mancini believes that Manchester City would be &#8220;crazy&#8221; to relieve him of his position at the club.
