City have spent money again this summer and are rumoured to be spending more and this puts enormous pressure on Mancini who really has to win the league this season of football or be branded a failure. Last season they lifted the FA Cup and clinched fourth which is a marginal success. Where this would have been a fantastic season for many clubs the truly staggering amount of cash they have spent in the last few years means this was only marginal.City need to improve considerably over their poor performance in the Community shield where only the narrow 3-2 loss to United massively flattered City. Apart from 5 minutes in the first half they deserved to lose by many more than 1.
At the end of the day though the Community shield is only a friendly and I am sure they will improve a lot when the kick off comes.
Betting
Manchester City are third favourites for the title at between 10/3 to 9/2 and that's about right however I think they may sneak second from Chelsea. Carlos Tevez if he stays is anywher ebetween 8/1 and 23/1 to be top scorer this season and new boy Sergio Aguero is anywhere between 8/1 and 16/1
