Barca Drained The City Players

Samir Nasri: "It was frustrating. Playing against a team with 10 at the back is always difficult, especially when three days earlier we played against Barcelona.

"Everyone was not really fresh in the first half.

"We played better the last 10 minutes of the first half and at half-time the manager told us to get behind their midfield and to play as simple as possible to have a few more opportunities to shoot.

"That is what happened and the most important thing is the win - like Chelsea, who suffered against Everton and then scored in the last minute.

"It is difficult now not to play a league game for three weeks but we have other targets and are going to try to win every game.

"After, we will see. The good thing is we have some players coming back from injury and the team is going to be fresh again."
