Whilst defeats inevitably brings with it the criticism and analysis a side faces, conversely, can draws mask the problems that a side has? Yet another point yesterday, and in the context of the game with the penalty save (more of a miss') and wonderful and brave double save at the end of the first half from Shay Given, it can be viewed as a point gained given that we again avoided what could have been...

Manchester United won without playing well, which is said to be the hallmark of champions. Their supporters, however, have little truck with that, uncomfortably aware that the team have been below their best all season, and that Chelsea increasingly have the look of title favourites. United had the initiative throughout, but Dimitar Berbatov spurned a succession of inviting chances before scoring...

City finally cut loose for the first time this season and overwhelmed a Scunthorpe side with five goals after the Iron had tested City's nerves with a first half equaliser to Steven Ireland's opener. Roque Santa Cruz, Joleon Lescott, Carlos Tevez and Michael Johnson all got on the scoresheet as Mark Hughes rotated his squad for the first time. Wayne Bridge, Kolo Toure, Martin Petrov and Emmanuel Adebayor...

There were no shock defeats in the Carling Cup fourth round as the Premier League teams held their form to continue to the last eight. Manchester City sustained a sublime run that has seen them lose only one game in all competitions so far by winning 5-1 against Championship relegation-battlers Scunthorpe, who left themselves exposed with their free style of play. This competition could offer Mark...

In addition to last night's victory, a positive was that it was achieved with a number of players who - through injury - had yet to really feature for the side this season. In his post-match comments, Mark Hughes singled out Roque Santa Cruz and Michael Johnson in particular: “Roque got a start and a goal as well. I thought his general play was outstanding. He allowed players to flourish around...

With a history of recent slip ups to lower league opposition, there is a tendancy to view fixtures such as last nights with a degree of trepidation, and when we gifted Scunthorpe an equaliser after going ahead so early, there could well have been a sense of foreboding around the stadium. This season though there has been the first suggestions that the old mentality is being cast aside and rather than...

It was hard to know what will have pleased Mark Hughes more. Manchester City’s serene progress through to the Carling Cup quarter-finals at the expense of a Scunthorpe United team who, by the end, you almost felt sorry for, or the return of what felt like a cast of thousands.

Premier League 2009/10 Betting: Outright Market: The first question to ask is: will the Premier League be a four-horse race again? My answer is yes, despite the £100m Manchester City have spent. I don’t see how Mark Hughes’ side can climb from mid-table to champions in just one season, particularly since most of the players they have signed (Carlos Tevez, Roque Santa Cruz, Kolo Toure, Emmanuel Adebayor)...
