Liverpool suffered more title misery after being held to a 2-2 draw by Manchester City at Anfield. After a dour first half the game exploded into life five minutes into the second half when Martin Škrtel provided the finishing touch to a free-kick from Steven Gerrard to fire the Reds in front. The Reds were staring at a sixth league defeat after City turned the game on their head with goals...

Henry Winter today suggests that - given his cameo on Saturday - that the most effective use of Carlos Tevez may be as an impact player late in the game, one who can take advantage of tired legs with his energy and sparkiness: After the Argentine attacker delivered a feisty second-half cameo to revitalise Manchester City , it was impossible not to conclude that Mark Hughes’s use of Tévez...

There was clearly something at stake, although the muddled action suggested that this was a contest for no more than a spot in next season's Europa League qualifiers. On current form that is exactly the competition where Liverpool and Manchester City will find themselves, but so much better had been expected. Rafael Benítez's team are under the greater scrutiny and regardless of the result...

Post match comments from Stephen Ireland: “Looking back at the end of the season we'll probably see it as a good point but we feel a bit robbed,” Ireland said. “We played well, we went ahead but conceded too early. It was very unfortunate but it could have been worse.” As for City's recent habit of drawing too many games, Ireland added: “It's unfortunate we've drawn those...

Liverpool's stuttering season continued as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Manchester City that did little for either club's hopes of finishing the season in the top four. Martin Skrtel's first goal for the club gave Rafa Benitez's side a 50th-minute lead before two goals in the space of seven minutes put City in the driving seat. Emmanuel Adebayor levelled for City before Stephen Ireland put the...

There were no punch-ups and no fists flying in Manchester City's dressing room last week. Just good old-fashioned verbals. Typically, it was a vintage performance by Craig Bellamy, bawling out his team-mates after they tossed away a win. In the line of fire was City's back four - Pablo Zabaleta, Kolo Toure, Joleon Lescott and Wayne Bridge - following their draw with Burnley. He pointed the finger...
