Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has reacted angrily to questions regarding his future by swearing in front of reporters in a press conference.

The 48-year-old was asked to comment on speculation that Malaga coach Manuel Pellegrini has been considered as a replacement to the Italian, who led his side to Premier League glory last season.

"F****** hell," Mancini said in a press conference. "I cannot continue to answer about this every week. But also because I don't understand this, why would Manchester City change their manager? For what reasons?"

Meanwhile, City, who are 12 points adrift of league leaders Manchester United, take on Chelsea this Sunday.
