Since Manuel Pellegrini went to Europe for coach, his team only won one title, that is 2004 Intertoto Cup when he coached Villarreal, which is 10 years from now. So the Carling Cup is not only expected to become the first honor he got in Manchester but also can end his 10-year title drought. Pellegrini said: "what I think is not to win, but win by what means. Personally, I think what I had done in Villarreal and Malaga is more important than the champion, because the difficulty to lead Villarreal to the Champions League semi-finals is much more difficult than to lead a very strong team to win. Of course we will do our best in the game, and the League Cup could be our first trophy this season, because this is the first ending race this season.”
West Ham United in the FA Cup in just 5-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest, but Pellegrini thinks that Aledaisi’s team will not give up. "They really lost badly last game, but I think it is because they save the strength. They did not send the strongest team. I believe we will encounter a very different West Ham tomorrow. " said City coach. "We must have a good performance to beat West Ham United, because the first round at home is very important. If we can scored more than one ball, then the second round will be beneficial for us ."
