West Ham v Manchester City Highlights Video

West Ham 1 - 0 Manchester City

Craig Bellamy returned to one of his old stamping grounds as Manchester City aimed to continue on from their midweek UEFA Cup success. The Hammers were hoping to put last week’s FA Cup exit out of their minds.
It was Bellamy who set up City’s best chance of the first but Robinho sent the ball wide. The Brazilian had a second opportunity, this time from a Vincent Kompany shot, but Green saved well. Apart from that, it was all West Ham although their football was sometime overplayed, seeking the perfect goal. Collinson and di Michele both had good chances during the first half but Shay Given was not seriously troubled. Just before time, the game was marred by a bad-looking injury to Valon Behrami, who twisted badly after getting his studs caught and required oxygen and six minutes of treatment before being stretchered off.

Following half time, the action was all heading towards the City goal with Carlton Cole and Scott Parker both having efforts blocked but it took until 20 minutes from end before Jack Collinson coolly volleyed home after Given had kept out a Savio shot. Felipe Caicedo tried to bring City level but both of his attempts lacked direction. West Ham held on to secure 7th position whilst City still only have one away victory this season.

Very different results for these 2 sides last weekend. West Ham fell to a disappointing 2-1 defeat at the hands of Bolton. Man City gave it their all to take a point from Anfield with a 1-1 draw.

2 defeats have threatened the Hammers status in the top half of the Premier League. They will be eager to avoid a third when Man City visit Upton Park. A decent home record coupled with poor away form for Man City has pundits favouring Zola's side.

Man City have been plagued with inconsistent performances. If they turn up for this game they are more than capable of claiming all 3 points in this game. However, if they fail to gel as a unit away form which has seen them win only 1 game this season will continue to disappoint the new club owners.

Liverpool vs Manchester City Highlights Video

Liverpool 1 - 1 Manchester City

Liverpool entertained Manchester City at Anfield hoping to close the gap on leaders Manchester United. Steven Gerrard was not considered fit for selection, possibly with the Champions League in mind, and Xabi Alonso was also missing.

City started the better and should have broken the deadlock early on but Stephen Ireland’s shot following good work by Robinho was easily dealt with by Jose Reina. Liverpool did come into the game and with Fernando Torres desperately trying to give the team the drive normally provided by their absent captain, he served up chances for Albert Riera and Yossi Benayoun that Torres himself would have thrived on. Sadly, neither of the former showed similar guile and wasted both opportunities.



The second half did not see an improvement in Pools fortunes and when Craig Bellamy’s effort went in off Arbeloa, the Kop must have wondered whether it simply wasn’t their day. Rafa Benitez’s threw everything at City and eventually found the equaliser courtesy of Dirk Kuyt’s tidy finish. Benayoun nearly snatched all three points late on but the visitors held on for a well-deserved point.

With six home wins compared to United’s twelve, Liverpool’s chances of winning their first league title in two decades are slipping away.

Liverpool vs Manchester City Live

Arguably the match of the day this Sunday Liverpool host Manchester City at Anfield looking to keep tabs on Manchester United at the top of the league table. Man U pulled out another win on Saturday but did lose any extension of their clean sheet record as Blackburn equalised early on.


Liverpool will be hopeful of claiming all 3 points against Manchester City who are plagued with consistency issues. Manager Mark Hughes was furious with the result against Portsmouth and will be after top performances from all players if they are to hope to take points from Liverpool. City are 9th in the league but if they do not manage to deal with their inconsistent results can drop quickly.

68' Red Card Cristiano Ronaldo
Wayne Rooney's 100th club goal was enough for Manchester United to confirm local supremacy with a 1-0 win over City at Eastlands - but Cristiano Ronaldo did not help much with a needless red card.

Ronaldo's temper has been threatening to boil over for some time now but his decision to push his hands towards Rooney's corner midway through the second half seemed bizarre.

Already booked, referee Howard Webb duly produced a second yellow card, condemning United to a nervy finish in which Patrice Evra cleared off the line from Richard Dunne although Joe Hart also denied Rooney seconds later.

At £32.5million, Robinho did not come cheap.

But with three clinical swipes of the boot he showed exactly why Chelsea wanted him and why Mark Hughes' smashed the British transfer record to get him.

Stoke may not be the most formidable opposition but Robinho proved brains will always overcome brawn as well as giving City's European aspirations a much-needed shove in the right direction.
