Goal difference could again be the deciding factor in the EPL title race and Manchester City therefore need to throw in more goals as soon as possible in every game, manager Roberto Mancini said on Tuesday.

Manchester United maintained their seven-point lead over current champions City, with 17 games remaining, after the two rivals beat Wigan Athletic and Stoke City 4 0 and 3 0 respectively.
.
Mancini's team took United's title last term when a last gasp 3-2 win over QPR on the final day put them level points but with a better goal difference of 64 against 56 (That thing pain me no be small).
.
This time forescoring United's goal difference is 26 to City's 22.
.
'' When we have a chance it is important to score a goal. We know very well we won the championship last year on goal difference ''. Mancini told Sky Sport.
