Our survey reveals that a whopping 97.5 per cent of fans expect a trophy within the next three years. What is more, 87 per cent expect the Blues to land a Premier League title in the same time period. Other themes to emerge were that City fans are right behind boss Roberto Mancini, with 85 per cent believing the Blues have improved as a side under his management. There was uproar when Mark Hughes was axed midway through the season ? although the unrest was more to do with how the Welshman was sacked than why ? but Blues fans have rallied behind Mancini. And young Adam Johnson has made a major impact with the Eastlands faithful. Even though the 22-year-old winger missed out on Fabio Capello?s England World Cup squad, he was voted the most improved player and the best young player at the club. The survey also revealed: :: 44 per cent of City fans make Carlos Tevez their favourite player, with Vincent Kompany (11%) second and Nigel de Jong (10%) third. :: 50 per cent of City fans awarded Argentina star Tevez 10 out of 10 for his performance. :: Stephen Ireland was City?s biggest let down, according to respondents, just ahead of Roque Santa Cruz. :: Liverpool striker Fernando Torres is top of the fans? wish-list for summer signings, ahead of another Anfield player Steven Gerrard and Mikel Arteta. :: 86.5 per cent are in favour of City introducing singing sections to the Eastlands stadium. :: Most fans reckon City need to make four signings this summer. :: 73 per cent  feel City will qualify for the Champions League next season. :: A massive 98 per cent believe City?s owners are doing a good job at the club.
