Veron’s Mancini let-off

JUAN SEBASTIAN VERON has revealed Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has a fiery temper and once tried to attack him in the changing rooms.

Veron and Mancini were team-mates at Serie A side Sampdoria in the 1990s when the two clashed. The former Manchester United and Argentina star revealed Mancini’s rage almost led to the two coming to blows after a heated argument.

The revelations will not help the City boss’s temper if things don’t go according to plan at home to Liverpool tomorrow night, when his side look to get back on track following yesterday’s late defeat at Sunderland.
