Manuel Pellegrini signs new contract at Man City FC

Manchester City have officially announced that boss Manuel Pellegrini has extended his contract with the club until 2017.

Given the ambitions of the club’s owners, the Champions League will have figured heavily in conversations about targets for this season, considering City have reached the last 16 only once in the past two seasons.

Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has backed captain Vincent Kompany to return to his best this season. However, his future at the club has been under scrutiny in recent months after he failed to replicate that success a year ago. “I’ve had a lot of conversations during the last two years”. Let us know in the comments section below.

“Every team will want Pep Guardiola to manage them, because he’s a great manager”, Pellegrini said. He finished the 2014-15 Premier League campaign with seven goals, and seven assists for Liverpool in 34 appearances for the club.

Sterling has arrived to add pace, width and Englishness, alongside Fabien Delph and young Patrick Roberts, but the same old problems of last season look like occurring again, especially if Sergio Aguero can’t stay fit. Carlo Ancelotti had a contract signed and Jurgen Klopp had also a contract. Southampton has played some fluid football in preseason (albeit against weak competition), but they finish sixth for me because I don’t think that Tottenham will overtake them this season. “It is the one thing I want and one day I hope to win it”. “I am happy here at Manchester City“.

The England worldwide will be playing for City this season after joining them from Premier League rivals Liverpool earlier this summer.

City travel to the Hawthorns to take on West Bromwich Albion on Monday in their first Premier League game of the season.

Pellegrini said that his job will now be to deliver silverware.

“I am absolutely sure that we are going to have a very successful season”. Sterling has shown in preseason that he brings a much-needed injection of pace and skill into City’s attack, and Kelechi Iheanacho seems to be a real possibility to have a breakout year. We lost so many points against the teams fighting relegation.

“But after that it’s also very important how you win a title”.
