The Manchester City midfielder has come out and hit back at Rene Meulensteen’s claims that Manchester City’s squad is made up of selfish players who are seeking personal glory rather than collective success...
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/James-Milner-c17706 has come out and made it clear that Manchester City do not lack unity or team spirit and they are still in the English Premier League title race despite whatever Manchester United think. Manchester United currently
have a five point advantage over the Blue half of Manchester as City are chasing them in the title race.
Milner’s comments were directed at Rene Meulensteen’s comments earlier on in the week when he outlined that City’s players were selfish in their approach to the game unlike the squad at Manchester United under Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s
guidance.
Milner has not played a big role for Manchester City this season as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 has more often than not went with the Englishman on the bench rather than in the starting line up. However Manchester City are in a precarious
situation now as they must win all of their remaining matches and also hope that United drop five points in their last four league matches.
Milner said, "Look at the season we have had and winning the FA Cup last year. That first trophy as a group was great and you can look at games this year when we have been losing and shown character and fight. Even in the FA Cup
game against United we were a man down and losing heavily at half-time. But we came back and could easily have got a draw out of the game.”
He added, "I cannot see a team of individuals doing that. You need that spirit, determination and togetherness to get through the low points of the season and we have done that. We are playing good football, had a great performance
at the weekend and all season we have fought in all competitions and will do that until the end."
