Caretaker Manchester City manager Brian Kidd said Roberto Mancini's sacking has rocked the club.

City overcame its FA Cup final defeat to Wigan Athletic by beating relegated Reading, 2-0, at Madejski Stadium on Tuesday night to guarantee it finished second in the Premier League.

Goals from Sergio Aguero and Edin Dzeko were enough for the host, which began life without Mancini with a win.
