The Sun<\/em>: “He is incessant in his work, never stops.<\/p>\n\u201cI have a place 400 yards away from his in Sardinia and this summer I’ll be pretending I’m out because he’ll be knocking on the door all the time.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt won’t be a holiday!<\/p>\n
“Roberto’s mentality is to win, to create a club that is capable of winning trophies.<\/p>\n
“It is what drives him on, it is what drove him on at Sampdoria as a player when he had a chance to move to bigger clubs.<\/p>\n
“At Sampdoria, he was part of a team that could get to the European Cup final against Barcelona and he enjoys that more than doing it with a club that is already successful.<\/p>\n
“I knew him as a player and I always thought I was competitive and had a winning mentality but he is on a different level.<\/p>\n
“He pushes you – and you end up going further with it. His winning drive and mentality is obsessive.<\/p>\n
“He is incessant with it and his demands are so high that he can be taken the wrong way sometimes.<\/p>\n
“Because he has done it at Inter, he knows he just has to continue along his road and hope the people come with him.”<\/p>\n
Platt insists Mancini is aware that City’s squad requires further development and reveals the club’s ambition next term is to win the Premier League.<\/p>\n
“I don’t think Roberto ever sits there and gloats about what he has won.\u201d Platt added.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen has he spoken about the three titles he won on the trot at Inter? \u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAll he has spoken to me about is the first Italian Cup they won because he says that is what kicked them on.<\/p>\n
“He believes we can win the title next season. Roberto knows we must improve the squad.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou need the ability to go away in the Champions League and play a mentally and physically
strong game and be able to come back and take three points at the weekend.”
