I am happy with my performance and the performance of the team."We have to be careful, it is not over. QPR are fighting for relegation and that will not be easy. But we are at home, that will give us the advantage.”Mancini told the BBC: "It is not finished. It is important that we get three points next week, we need a big effort - there is one game more."QPR will be tough, they are fighting for relegation. Nothing changes. It is ours to lose. It doesn’t depend on other teams anymore.”United have 86 points and have one game to play - their next week’s match away to Sunderland and City have a better goal difference than United.
