Today's game at Anfield offers Mark Hughes's team the ideal opportunity to break a run of stalemates If Mark Hughes has learned one thing in the last month, it is exactly what Rafael Benítez and Liverpool learned last season: draws can drag you down. Five draws, which is what Manchester City have just put together, is hardly an unbeaten run worth bragging about. "You always know there...
This is a fixture with the potential to reinforce the impression that there are changes afoot in the make-up of the elite, with Manchester City intent on breaking into the top four. There is, however, a lot of work still to be done by a team that has drawn five Premier League games in a row after winning five of their first six. Conversely, Liverpool have players like Steven Gerrard and Alberto Aquilani...
Liverpool have scored 17 goals at Anfield; only Arsenal (20) have more goals at home in the Premier League. City drew 1-1 at Anfield last season, ending a sequence of five straight losses there. And in a total of 12 Premier League clashes between these teams there, Liverpool have won nine and drawn two. Sixth-placed City are one point and one place better off than Liverpool and they have conceded only...
There are going to be fixtures at various times that are considered (overwhelmingly by the media it has to be said) as a chance to 'lay down a marker'. Tomorrow's visit to Anfield will no doubt be seen as such an opportunity. Of course, the outcome of tomorrow lunchtime's game is not going to decide anything over the course of a season barely a quarter of the way in but it is a game whereby the result...
Before Adebayor, Robinho and the other eight strikers at City, there used to be Georgios Samaras. Although highly touted by Stuart Pearce, he failed to make an impact in the two years while at the club. When Sven Goran...
The best today's rumours could come up with at short notice was la main de dieu The Mill has often wondered what it might feel like to be bested in single combat by brooding, whispery-voiced, ankle-rippling Manchester City manager Mark Hughes. The Mill imagines it might all happen so quickly. There he is, stepping out from behind the doorjamb, jaw set, the enormous head almost entirely square. There's...
ROBINHO'S outrageous courting of Barcelona has taken a new twist with Roque Santa Cruz revealing his Manchester City team-mate has been completely open about his desire to move to the Nou Camp.
• Negotiations first test of Arnesen's ability in transfer market • Chelsea keen to make signing ahead of Gaël Kakuta hearing Chelsea's pursuit of Atlético Madrid's Sergio Agüero is being driven by the club's director of football, Frank Arnesen, in what represents the first major test of his ability to operate in the transfer market since he assumed responsibility for senior...
Roque Santa Cruz has revealed that his Manchester City team-mate, Robinho has spoken of his desire to make a move to Barcelona. The Robinho to Barca transfer saga has been going on all season and has become really annoying. Robinho is constantly talking to the Brazilian and Spanish press about his desire to move to Spain. Santa Cruz has explained to Catalunya Radio that he often discusses it at Carrington...
ITV's coverage of Doha was too negative. I talked to a mate yesterday and he agreed. He said it was "over the top." In fact, the whole media reaction was too negative. Brazil beat England Reserves 1-0 on a very warm evening on the Persian Gulf. And all our press said it proved Fabio Capello has no depth in his squad. I can't really go along with that. Yes, we all know our technical limitations...

The Brazil coach is likely to keep his Manchester City forward out of the firing line against Oman Even if Dunga wakes up today to read more warnings from Manchester City and Mark Hughes, Robinho should be just a spectator when Brazil help celebrate the 69th birthday of Sultan Qaboos bin Said al-Said by facing Oman and collecting a cheque for US$3m (£1.8m). Although the striker, who has been...
Martin Petrov is facing a couple of weeks on the sidelines after picking up a knee injury in the current international break. The winger has a slight sprain of the inner ligament in the left knee and could be out for up to two weeks. Petrov was with his national squad preparing for a couple of friendlies when he was forced to return back to City’s Carrington training ground, where he is now...
SAO PAULO – Argentina's struggles are giving as much joy to Brazilians as their own team's secured World Cup berth and 11-match winning streak.
