Roberto Mancini has admitted that he could lose his job at any moment but said that even if he were sacked as Manchester City manager he would still admire Khaldoon al-Mubarak and that any successor would be lucky to work with the club's chairman. Mancini does not believe he will lose his position even if City fail to win the championship, claiming that the club will soon be winning multiple trophies each season. But of his relationship with Mubarak the Italian said: "My relationship with Khaldoon is fantastic. If he sacked me at the end of the season or next year, I would say that every manager who works with Khaldoon is very lucky. He is a really good man. This doesn't change my opinion about him or the club. But I don't have this problem because I will continue in my job. I'm sure that this club has arrived at the top. With two or three more players after this year, this club will start to win, and when it starts to win it will win two or three titles every year. Now it has arrived. "I've been in this world for a long time and I know you can lose this job. But it's important to me that the squad have improved a lot over the last two years. We are progressing. I don't decide this [my future]. I do the best for my job and after I don't decide this situation." City may be eight points behind Manchester United when they kick off at Arsenal on Sunday if the champions defeat Queens Park Rangers earlier in the afternoon, yet Mancini brushed off those who may be questioning his future. "I don't know this but it's not important for me," he said. "I have a one-year contract. I started this job two and a half years ago and since that moment we have improved a lot as a team, players and a club. This is important when you have a new team." Is he sure, then, that Mubarak would also recognise this progress if the title is not won? "I hope so because of what's happened over the last two years," Mancini said. "But I know football very well and I left Internazionale after seven trophies with a four-year contract to the end [being sacked in 2008]. In football anything can happen in any moment. This championship can change in one week. The same regarding my future. When you choose this job you know that anything can happen in any moment. I don't have a problem with that because when you work hard for your job and improve your team, that's important." Pressed that a strong finish is important even if City miss out on the Premier League Mancini said: "We can't think this now. We should think that we can still win the title. There are seven games to the end with one derby to play at home. I think we can win this title. It's important that we get the maximum points can. Last year we got 71 points and now we've got 71 with seven games left." http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/apr/06/robert-mancini-manchester-city-future
