The Italian did, however, make the rather perplexing claim that City "need midifielders", this despite the fact that he has spent over £100 million on assembling the current crop that play in the centre of the park and that both Vladimir Weiss and Michael Johnson were allowed to leave on loan this summer.Mancini was quite clearly trying to deflect attention from his team's defensive failings as he also criticised the forwards, adding:"It's incredible, we lost two points after we scored two goals and dominated the game."But I think this can be a lesson for us. When we have the chances we should score."This was despite Argentine Sergio Aguero netting a double to bring his tally for the season to an incredible eight in five matches, two ahead of strike partner Edin Dzeko. Only Wayne Rooney has outscored either player this season.Either way, it is clear that Mancini was unhappy with the performance against Fulham and it seems certain that he will demand a massive improvement when his side host Everton on Saturday. It is 4/9, at Ladbrokes, that they bounce back with a win and that price is unlikely to last until kick off.The aforementioned Aguero-Dzeko partnership is, without doubt, the best in the Premier League and while the former, who is 7/2 at bet365 to open the scoring on Saturday, it is perhaps the latter who has impressed the most. The Bosnian, who is 9/2 at Coral to score first against Everton, has really taken to his role as the focal point of the City attack and he is thriving on the service provided by Samir Nasri (8/1, Paddy Power) and David Silva (8/1, totesport) from the flanks. That quartet should prove too much for the Everton defence on Saturday and the worry for the Toffees is that Seamus Coleman and Leighton Baines have to spent most of the match on the back foot, which will take away much of the visitors' attacking threat. Tim Cahill (13/1, Unibet) can do nothing without the ball in the box and former Manchester United striker Louis Saha (13/1, Unibet) is no longer much of a threat. This means that City's defence are unlikely to be unduly worried at the Etihad Stadium and odds of 8/1 (Bwin) on an Everton win look justified.It is 6/4, at Paddy Power, that Manchester City win without conceding a goal on Saturday and that looks a fair good bet. The fall-out from Craven Cottage will be that Mancini is more cautious with his tactics and, rather than look for more goals when they go two up, City will be operating a 'safety first' mantra, which should see Joe Hart keep a third clean sheet in three Premier League matches at the Etihad Stadium.RecommendationWin to Nil - Manchester City (6/4, Paddy Power) Read our Betfair review £20 risk-free bet plus £1000 cashback Like Like Post to wall 249 Reads All Football News Recent Football Articles Goal-line Technology 12/1 To Debut In 2012-13 Premier League24 May 2012Goal-line technology could be introduced to the Premier League next season, according to Ladbrokes.
