Mancini irked by Bayern boss

MANCHESTER CITY manager Roberto Mancini intends to speak to Bayern Munich chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge today about his persistent sniping at the English club.

Rummenigge has been outspoken in his criticism of City and their rapid, expensively-funded ascent through the ranks of European football.

The Germany legend has now said City, who recently announced annual losses of £194.9million, should be excluded from European competition if they do not conform to UEFA’s new Financial Fair Play rules.
