Mancini expected to rest key players ahead of FA Cup Final
By Aaron Leggott
Ahead of the penultimate home league game of the season, Roberto Mancini has once again expressed his frustration at his team's league campaign, but knows that they must finish the season off as strongly as possible.
The Blues face three more league fixtures as they bid to cement second place - whilst also competing in their second FA Cup final in three years this weekend. Mancini said:
"I am not satisfied as I wanted to win the Premier League, but now we cannot do anything about that, we cannot change it.
"But in the end we are in the cup final and we are in second position, so we can be satisfied. But when you start the season you want to win the league."

Despite Mancini's hopes to secure second in the Premier League, he is expected to make a number of changes ahead of Saturday's game against Wigan.
