The notion that Mancini is hard done by as a manager is risible. Chelsea won the CL with a far inferior squad to ours last season. The rags have won countless titles with an inferior squad to the one we have now. Sure he wants more players, every manager does. But if he really is leaking these stories (and I really hope he isn't) then he should be ashamed of himself. We can defend our title with no new players. Only someone looking to get their excuses in early would say otherwise.
They did. They also finished 25 points behind us in the league, so maybe we're actually Champions League winners? Or maybe, even though Chelsea won the Champions League, a cup competition, Russian Roman realised that his team we're nowhere near to competing in the Premier League, and decided to splurge a load of cash so his team didn't finish 25 points behind the champions again?
