Mancini: We must keep our focus

ROBERTO MANCINI has warned Manchester City not to ease off as they close in on the Champions League.

A place in Europe’s number one club competition could be secured as early as this evening should City overcome Everton at Goodison Park and Tottenham lose to Blackpool in the later game.

More likely, City will have to wait until next Tuesday’s home encounter with Spurs to confirm their new exalted status. Not that Mancini is getting stressed about that. He is just imploring his team to retain their focus.
