Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini says he would like to have finished his final season with the Premier League title. The Chilean manager, who bids farewell to City this weekend to make way for Pep Guardiola, lifted the trophy during his first season with the club, and has also added two League Cup wins during his time in England. And while he is happy with the job he has done, he admits he would liked to have claimed the Premier League crown one more time. Of course, for me, it would have been an important thing if we had won the title this year, but we couldnt for different reasons, Pellegrini told Sky Sports News HQ.But we managed to win the Capital One Cup and we managed to be in the spot in the Champions League and continue to the semi-finals, but for me of course, the best thing to finish my work here would have be winning the Premier League because I think that is the most important competition - more than the Champions League. The club lifted the Premier League title in Pellegrinis first season at the Etihad Im very satisfied about the work I did because we are the best team of the last three seasons. When you compare which team has the most points, its our team. Who is the team who scored the most goals? Its our team.Who is the team who have the better goal difference and win more games? All of them are our term except the team that concedes more goals, but its just four more than Chelsea who have had the best defence in three seasons.I won three titles here, because we improved a lot in the Champions League, especially this season when we arrived in a semi-final. The season before I arrived here, the club didnt win any games in the Champions League. Manuel Pellgrini thinks if Manchester City finish fourth in the Premier League, there season should be seen as a success. I always feel that I can do it better of course. We had some moments in the season where we were not a very consistent team, we lost important games but it was a very special season for different reasons that are not important to analyse now so Im very happy about the work I did here for three years.It was at the start of February when it was announced that Pellegrini would be replaced by current Bayern boss Guardiola, who has had big success at the German club following his tenure at Barcelona where he won 14 trophies in four seasons including two Champions League titles.It was very difficult because it was a moment where we were involved with competitions and without that, it affected a lot of what happened. Pep Guardiola will replace Manuel Pellegrini as City manger in the summer But it was also important to be calm for all the other managers in the Premier League, because when Guardiola said he was coming to England, it started the speculation about Chelsea and Manchester United and City and I knew in that moment what would happen so I think it was the best way to do it.I think Man City are bringing in a very good manager that has been proven successful in all the clubs he has managed before and Im sure he will be successful here.Pellegrini will take plenty of stand-out moments from his time at City, including taking the club to their first Champions League semi-final this season where they were knocked out 1-0 on aggregate by Real Madrid. City made it to the Champions League semi-finals this season but were knocked out by Real Madrid Some of my highlights have been the way we won the first Premier League. I think that was the most cohesive team of England and we also won two titles in the first season that I was here. That we reached one step more in the Champions League that was so difficult for this team before - if you ask me that is one of our best moments.We were also very unlucky with the semi-final because you can say Real Madrid are playing in the final because we scored an own goal but I was not happy with the way we played, it wasnt about the pressure. But I doesnt mean it wasnt a great achievement to arrive at a semi-final and beating important clubs.Theres still work to do for Pellegrini as he looks to secure another top four finish for his side to ensure Champions League football next season, and they need just a point against Swansea on Sunday to beat their rivals Manchester United into the final place. City celebrated Capital One Cup success over Liverpool, the second time Pellegrini won the trophy City celebrated Capital One Cup success over Liverpool, the second time Pellegrini won the trophy I think one of the most important things we did over the three years is that we were always in the Champions League spots.During this season, we have played 37 weeks and in those weeks, we have been in those spots and I hope that we are not going to lose it on Sunday. It is a difficult game but I am sure for the third year in a row, we are going to have a spot in the Champions League.

Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca! Hey Kerry, I was at the Jets-Oilers game on Tuesday night and noticed quite a bit of jersey tucking - most notably Bryan Little and Tobias Enstrom. No penalties were called and as far as I know, no warnings were given. (there might have been?) any thoughts or insight on to how this will be called during the season? Thanks,Will BrigantiEdmonton Will: The "jersey tucking" mandate is designed to comply with Rule 9—Equipment and more specifically 9.5—Protective Equipment: "All protective equipment, except gloves, headgear, and goaltenders leg guards must be worn under the uniform. Should it be brought to the attention of the Referee that a player is wearing, for example, an elbow pad that is not covered by his jersey, he shall instruct the player to cover up the pad and a second violation by the same player would result in a minor penalty being assessed." When a player tucks his jersey into the top of his pants some portion of the protective padding becomes exposed (worn outside the uniform) in violation of this rule. From a safety perspective the gap created by a tucked jersey exposes a portion of the players upper body and can act as a catchall for flying pucks and sticks to the point of causing an unnecessary injury. Aesthetically, it also violates rule 9.1 which provides that all players of each team shall be dressed uniformly with approved design and color of their helmets, sweaters, short pants, stockings and skates. The fact of the matter (beyond uniformity) is it just doesnt play well in the building or on TV. This also translates to the players hockey pants that are ripped, torn, cut or altered (open zippers inside thigh) for comfort or otherwise that could expose a bare leg or sock in the thigh area. I witnessed Walt Tkaczuk and other players that had huge thighs sometimes utilize zippers in the inside of their pants that would be half-zipped from the bottom for comfort. I thought at the time it made them vulnerable in this area but also as the pant continued to wear and curl just how poorly it looked aesthetically. Whenever a rule like this was handed to us for enforcement I consiidered it a "babysitting" assignment for me and my colleagues.dddddddddddd This ranged from telling players how they could dress, to color of tape and size of the knob on the end of a goalies stick to water bottles being placed back into the sleeve on top of the net. As insignificant as they seem these rules still must be enforced. There were far too many times to count that I had to advise a player to cover his elbow pad with his jersey. Super heavyweight Dave Brown (and super guy) used a very tight jersey sleeve from the top of his elbow down to a shortened cuff. This prevented much grab-hold by his opponents but also resulted in the lower part of his elbow pad to become exposed. Every time I asked Brownie to cover his elbow pad he complied without a fuss; albeit took some work to get it stretched for proper coverage. The Officials are instructed to enforce the "sweater tuck" when they notice it as follows: If a player comes onto the ice tucked in, he is warned and must comply (fix it immediately). Should it occur to the same player in that game there is no further warning and a minor penalty for delay of game results; following the assessment of the minor penalty should he return to the ice without making the necessary change he would be assessed a misconduct penalty; should this happen a third time, the player shall be assessed a game misconduct penalty (rule 9.5). It is also important for us to know that the Referees were reminded that sometimes the sweater might become tucked just through normal movement in the action of a game. This is not a violation. If however, it were to become the norm with the same player (for example one who comes onto the ice un-tucked but during the course of play always seems to end up with his sweater tucked) the Referees are to notify the League office. Hockey Ops personnel would then follow-up with the team equipment manager to ensure that the jersey is not too short for the player and perhaps needs to be altered. This may have been what took place with Bryan Little and Tobias Enstrom in the game you observed Will. If by chance the League office was unaware of these players sweaters frequently getting tucked your question here just might have raised a red-flag! Great job of "babysitting" Will. ' ' '
