On Friday the Guardian rehashed a four month old story from French daily L’Equipe about Mancini talking to the Ligue 2 club.
Mancini said: “I don’t understand why you continue to ask me (about) last year, last month. This is finished. Why? Why, for which reason? Why do you continue to ask me, ‘Last year you had a chance to go’?
“I stay here because my work is here. I worked for two years. I built with the chairman and the owner, this team. We won three trophies in two years. For 50 years we didn’t win. Never.”
