It all depends on Mancini. City already have a solid base within their squad with which to build upon, and with the right mentality amongst the squad, and with a slight alteration of the tactics, there's no reason as to why City can't be at the top of the table next season. Firstly, and most importantly, Mancini needs to assess his middle 3. A team with the quality that is apparent in City's defensive unit does not require an adverse balance of defence over attack in midfield. Kompany has been immense this campaign, Joe Hart has shown that he has a very bright future in the game, and up until recently, Kolo Toure had provided a high level of stability. Therefore there is no reason to have both Gareth Barry and Nigel de Jong sitting in front of the backline. And as already stated, Yaya Toure is naturally a more defensive minded player, despite showing that he is adept at playing further forward. What is missing is an Iniesta style player, someone who can sit in the middle of the park in the advance position, who can then look to support the attack by sliding through perfectly weighted balls, as well as showing the intelligence and flair in order to arrive in and around the box to support Tevez. David Silva has shown that he is capable of playing in this position, however due to the lack of width available to City at this moment in time, Silva has been deployed higher up the pitch. With the money available to City, there are a number of candidates who could be bought into the squad to fill the void.
