Fernandinho hopes Pellegrini will bring title back to Man City

16 July 2013 - 04:12

Man City's new signing Fernandinho is hopeful that Manuel Pellegrini can bring the glory days back to the Etihad Stadium. Pellegrini joined the Citizens from Malaga at the end of last season.

  • Chelsea midfielder looking forward to London derby vs Spurs

  • Man City were pipped to the title last year, but are amongst the favourites to win this year having brought a host of new faces to the club.



    "Although Manuel is new, the players are already getting used to his style on and off the pitch - pre-season is a good time for this, to learn his personality," Fernandinho said.



    "At meal times for example he wants everyone together at the same time. This is the way he wants things to be done.



    "I am enjoying working with him. It seems like he has that real winning mentality and a strong football philosophy that he will make the players understand.



    "I think it will be slightly different because I spent eight years with the same manager. Our relationship was fantastic and I hope I will build the same with Mr Pellegrini."
