Liverpool claimed victory in the Merseyside derby but Rafael Benítez's team looked more like a Europa League side than a title-winning one It was Michael Owen's first day as a Manchester United player and Gary Neville was showing him around the club's training ground, introducing him to his new team-mates, trying to make a one-time Liverpool hero feel at home in a place that he once regarded...

Sir Alex Ferguson's side can take dignity from their defeat at Chelsea, but they'll also do well to shed a real sense of injustice It is a curious war-dance: a little hop and a skip, then a flurry of frantic hand movements, as if he is somehow trying to swat away an invisible swarm of bees. You can see it pretty much every time a split decision goes against Manchester United and Sir Alex Ferguson...

It is a measure of Manchester City's new ambitions that they will have been disappointed not to have completed a second-half recovery, even having had to play the last 25 minutes with only 10 men. Pablo Zabaleta's second yellow card will cost him a one-match suspension but, of more immediacy, it also significantly damaged their hopes of concocting a winning goal . Mark Hughes's team had been trailing...

Mark Hughes may have spent £120m in the summer but the Manchester City manager has been left fretting about the size of his squad going into Sunday's match, with 11 players either out or struggling because of injury problems. Wigan beat Chelsea in their last match and Roberto Martínez could be forgiven for sensing that City might be vulnerable to another upset given the list of possible...
