Man U better than Man City, says Mancini after 6-1 derby win

London, Mon, 24 Oct 2011 ANI

London, Oct.24 (ANI): Roberto Mancini has insisted that his Manchester City side has not overtaken Manchester United as the Premier League's major power - despite thrashing the champions 6-1 at Old Trafford on Sunday.

 

The margin of defeat was Manchester United's worst at home since 1955 and the first time they had conceded six at Old Trafford since 1930 as City ran riot, with Mario Balotelli and Edin Dzeko scoring twice and Sergio Aguero and David Silva completing the rout.

 

The BBC quoted Mancini, as saying: "United are still one yard above us and we can only change this if we win the title. After that it might be different but until then United are better than us."

 

He added: "I still have big respect for United and for their squad. There are still four or five teams who can win the title and the season is long."

 

Mancini also insisted that Balotelli, in the headlines after a firework went off inside his house on Saturday morning, can become one of the top three players in the world.

 

Mancini said: "I hope for him, and for football in general, that the day will arrive when Mario changes his mind completely because after this he will become one of the best three players in the world like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo." (ANI)
