City need time, but three points is unacceptable By Eurosport | Jim White £365million: it is a heck of an investment in personnel, only to end up accruing the lowest points total by an English team in the history of the Champions League. Yes, not even Blackburn's hapless 1995campaign - which degenerated into their players scrapping on the pitch amongst themselves - was as fruitless as Manchester City's efforts this season. Three points: at over £100million apiece that hardly constitutes value. City's abject European failure has many causes, but Roberto Mancini is absolutely right to point out that it takes time to accrue sufficient knowledge of the competition to compete properly. Domestic dominance does not necessarily quickly translate into continental ascendancy. Remember Manchester United being upended by Galatasaray and hammered by Barcelona in the mid-nineties before they found their feet? Remember how long it took Chelsea to convert their potential? Even Liverpool, when they won in 2005, had a several more years of competition experience under their belt than City. But three points. That must hurt. However naive a side might be, that is a feeble return. Particularly as the side which has looked so solid - if not exactly sparkly - in the Premier League this season found itself resembling damp blotting paper when faced with continental opposition. Of course, it didn't help City who that opposition was. As groups of death go, theirs was in the bubonic plague class. From the moment the draw was made, Mancini must have been dreading what was going to come next. Placed in the same group as Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund, two sides with good cause to be optimistic about still being around come the final, there was not even the consolation of a whipping boy against whom City might accrue points. Ajax, as they proved in their games against City, look a side on the march. Still, there was one piece of good fortune for Mancini as he lost once again in Germany last night. At least his team finished bottom of the group. So he won't be obliged come the spring to stumble into the Thursday nightmare of the Europa League. He can instead concentrate on solidifying his grip on domestic issues without the distraction of pointless trips back from eastern Europe just ahead of the weekend. It might be argued that if European experience is what they need, then at least the Europa League would offer that. But Mancini will doubtless consider himself well out of it. If he is not to be engaged in the proper competition, it is better not to be distracted from the domestic challenge by this most pointless of exercises. He had already hinted that if City were to be given a place in the Europa, he would field a reserve team to preserve the first choice for the league campaign. So any learning would have been of limited value, not much more useful than giving his second string a run out. The question now is: how does he make sure it doesn't happen again? His bosses have less inclination than their Chelsea counterparts to issue P45s. But his failure to translate home success into the European triumph they crave has cost him in the past. He was fired by Inter in 2008, despite winning three successive Serie A titles; the reason widely cited was his side's lack of progress in the Champions League. And what happened when he left Milan? In came Jose Mourinho, who, in his one season in charge, won the competition, thrilling his employer. Now we hear that Mourinho is agitating for a move back to England. He has tired of the politics at Madrid and wants a return to the place where he achieved so much with Chelsea. Could history be about to repeat itself? Mancini clearly bristled at the close proximity of his nemesis when the two met in this season's competition. In response, Mourinho was at his most mischievous, cheerfully stating in the press conference after the game at the Etihad that if his Madrid team had performed as badly as City, he would be out of a job. Of course, it may never happen. City's hierarchy may take the view that the Italian's prickly perfectionism is the best way to drive the players to achieve the world domination they crave. Better than Mourinho's capricious politicking. Maybe Chelsea, or even Manchester United, will step in first to sign up the great Portugeezer? Perhaps he was only saying he wanted to go to England to strengthen his negotiating position in Spain? But one thing is for sure: coming bottom of his group with the lowest points total ever recorded by and English representative is not the best way for Mancini to stop having to look over his shoulder.

[h=4]Our city will come to a standstill at 1.30pm on Sunday afternoon for the 163rd Manchester derby, so with that in mind, we’ve compiled a list of vital statistics ahead of the latest Battle of Manchester.[/h] Make sure you’re fully armed with all of the facts, figures and trivia going into this meeting between first and second in the Barclays Premier League.
Home comforts: Man City's current run of 37 unbeaten top-flight home games matches Man Utd's best top-flight run (April 1966-Jan 1968).
Hot heads: Unusually for a derby, City have only had one player sent off in this fixture in the Premier League era. The player in question was Bernardo Corradi who was sent off in the dying embers of the 3-1 defeat at Old Trafford in December 2006. United have had five men dismissed.

Straight in: Since 2002, City have never dropped a Premier League point against Manchester United in a game in which they have scored the opening goal. (P7, W7, D0, L0)
Narrow margins: there have been just five goals scored in the last six meetings between City and United at the Etihad Stadium and no more than one in any of those games.
Instant impact: Edin Dzeko has scored five goals from the bench this season, only one short of the record for a single Premier League season (held by Tore Andre Flo and Jermaine Defoe).
Spotters badge: City have never scored a Premier League penalty against Manchester United, although Darius Vassell has missed one at the City of Manchester Stadium on 5 May 2007.



Prediction fodder: The most common scoreline in the Premier League in matches between the two sides is 1-0 occurring seven times. 1-1 is the joint-second most common scoreline between the pair, occurring 4 times. A 3-1 scoreline has also occurred on four occasions.
Blue Christmas: December is historically the Blues' most goal-laden month in the calendar - at both ends. They have scored a whopping 120 goals but have also conceded 116. It is also the team’s most successful month for points gained in the Premier League with City winning 26, drawing 23 and losing 33 of 82 games in the final calendar month.
Middle Man: Carlos Tevez has scored all four penalties he's hit down the middle of the goal in the Premier League.

Unwelcome precedent: City have lost all 3 of the previous Premier League derbies to have taken place in December although they have all been played at Old Trafford.

[h=4]With the Manchester derby just two days away, it's time for the second instalment of vital statistics ahead of Sunday's showdown at the Etihad Stadium.[/h] Social media's stats aficionado @OptaCity has drilled down into his database of facts, figures and curiosities to put together these ten points of interest.

Unhappy memories: In the Premier League, City have lost 17 times against Manchester United. The Blues have only lost more Premier League games against Arsenal (21), Chelsea (20) and Tottenham Hotspur (19).

Bookable offences: Martin Atkinson has brandished City with 34 yellow cards, red carded two and has given one penalty against City. He has yellow carded 28 and sent off one of the opposition.


Cleanest sheets: The champions have scored 18 goals in their last 10 Premier League games (1.80 gpg) and have conceded a downright stingy four goals (0.40 gpg).

Honours even: City have now drawn more (six) games this season than they did in the entire 2011-12 campaign (five).

Ebenezer Scrooges: No opposition side have managed to have more than four shots on target against City in any of the 15 PL games this season.

Sharp shooters: The only two players to score at a rate of less than 100 mins per goal this season are United's Javier Hernandez (78.2) and City's Edin Dzeko (92.8).


Comeback kings: City (15) and United (21) have come from behind to win a combined 36 points from losing positions in the Premier League this season.

Mixed bag: In the Premier League era, City have won five, drawn two and lost eight of their 15 home games played against Manchester United.
Head start: City have won 61 of the 70 Premier League games (87.14%) in which they have opened the scoring under Roberto Mancini.


Falling behind: City have only gone on to win 8 of the 42 PL games in which they have failed to score the opening goal under Roberto Mancini.
