Manuel Pellegrini: Man City boss says sacking never a good option

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini claims clubs should not see sacking the manager as a cure for their problems.

Pellegrini's position has come under scrutiny with Premier League champions City 12 points behind leaders Chelsea.

Pellegrini said: "Every time you manage an important club, not just Manchester City, if you don't have the results the club deserves, everyone talks about changing the manager.

"It's very easy to sack the manager, but that's not the correct diagnostic."

Pellegrini's deal at City runs out in summer 2016 and, although he says no talks have taken place about extending his contract, he is keen to stay.

"I'm very happy at Manchester City - one of the biggest clubs in the world," said the 61-year-old.

"I'm happy with the fans, owners - disappointed with results but very happy here.

"I have one more year, I don't need [talks]. I had a contract for three years, I don't talk about extending. The first year was very good, second year not so good."

Jurgen Klopp has been linked with a possible move to Manchester Citywhen he leaves Borussia Dortmund at the end of the season.

But City have played down such a move and Pellegrini said he does not require any assurance about his position from the club's owners.

He added: "You must manage with all kinds of rumour. I trust the work I do. You cannot win the title every year.

"I'm not thinking about next year. I keep working as I know I have the support of the owners and players - that's why I don't feel pressure. I think of the present, not the future. I don't need assurances."
