Man City’s Mancini concedes Premier League title

Roberto Mancini has conceded the English Premier League title but says he will be at Manchester City next season to try and win it back.
Champions City will go into Saturday’s home game with Newcastle 18 points behind Manchester United, if the leaders win at Sunderland in the day’s early game.
And Mancini insists City’s focus now should be holding off a challenge from London duo, Chelsea and Tottenham, for the runners-up spot.
“It’s over, but this doesn’t change anything because we should do our best from now to the end,” Mancini said.
He added: “Every top team, when you can’t win a title, you should try to play well, try to win all the games, and we have the FA Cup semi-final.
“We have Chelsea four points behind, Tottenham five points behind and we play another nine games.
“For this reason it’s important to keep working hard.”
