Unbeaten in three games and with confidence flooding back, Man City make the journey south to face a resurgent West Ham side, flourishing under the inspirational leadership of Gianfranco Zola and Steve Clarke. These sides are only separated in the table by one place and just a solitary point, with City currently holding tenth position. [...]

Result: Man City 2 -1 FC Copenhagen
An accomplished and professional performance against a thoroughly underwhelming FC Copenhagen side enabled Man City to progress to the next round, the last 16, of the UEFA Cup, where they will face yet another Danish team, AaB Aalborg, who advanced comfortably with a surprising 6 – 1 aggregate victory [...]

After a thoroughly uplifting and exhilarating draw away at Liverpool on Sunday, Man City host FC Copenhagen in the second leg of their UEFA Cup tie. The first encounter, last week in Denmark, ended in a 2-2 draw, so both sides still have a wonderful chance to progress. City will be favourites to advance due to [...]

Result: Liverpool 1 – 1 Man City
An enthralling contest at Anfield on Sunday resulted in a pulsating match and a valuable point for City. Former Scouser Craig Bellamy gave the visitors a second-half lead and they looked to be heading towards a rare away success, only to see their hopes dashed when Dirk Kuyt, the Dutch workhorse and Liverpool’s [...]

With pockets guarded and jewelery securely hidden away, Man City travel to Merseyside to face a Liverpool team still harbouring hopes of winning the Premier League. The Blues were appalling in their previous fixture in the League, away at Portsmouth, although they did improve and manage a draw in midweek in the UEFA Cup against [...]

Result: FC Copenhagen 2 – 2 Man City
An entertaining encounter in Denmark last night culminanted in an enjoyable match for the neutral although a slightly disappointing one for City and their boss Mark Hughes. The visitors took the lead twice in the match, but on each occasion, were pulled back by a resilient, if a [...]

Firstly, I would just like to thank my able deputy and second-in-command; the genius otherwise known as Plattsy, for so capably filling in for me whilst I enjoyed a warm-weather winter’s break in the sunny climes of Madrid. I’m now back refreshed and better than ever for the end-of-season run in.
After a thoroughly depressing, yet [...]

Result:  Portsmouth 2 – 0  Man City
A typically lacklustre City away performance on Saturday saw the Blues miss out on a chance to climb to seventh against Paul Hart’s Portsmouth.  This was a real missed opportunity for the Blues who were up against distinctly average opposition, however goals from Glen Johnson and Hermann Hreidarsson proved [...]

An away trip to the South Coast to face a Portsmouth side lacking in confidence and belief (as well as a manager) offers City a perfect opportunity to cement their place in top echelons of the Premier League. The Citizens come into this game on the back of a hard-fought victory against Middlesbrough, while Portsmouth have been [...]

Result: Man City 1 – 0 Middlesborough
A professional performance from City earned them a deserved victory over a poor Middlesborough side at the City of Manchester Stadium on Saturday. Although many of the plaudits will go to Craig Bellamy, who scored the only goal of the game in the second-half, credit must also be awarded [...]
