City will jet out tomorrow for a sunshine break in Abu Dhabi in embarrassed, rather than holiday mood after dropping two home points against homespun opponents who had previously lost every away game this season. Leading 3-2 after 87 minutes, the money men from Eastlands were left deflated by their fifth draw in succession in the Premier League, Burnley gaining their point with a close-range finish...

This is another very important fixture with the added bonus of it being something of a local derby which does add an extra edge to it & the atmosphere should be excellent here. Manchester City come into this fixture unbeaten in the Premier League since they lost out in that thrilling 4-3 derby defeat by Manchester United but they have had 4 straight draws so they will be looking to change that...

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...

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...

Both players were substituted in the second half - Petrov fell on the floor and called for assistance from the bench in the 67th minute and was replaced by SWP. Toure pulled up in the 90th minute and was replaced by the returning Vincent Kompany. Here is what Mark Hughes had to...
