Hughes: No Need To Panic Over Manchester City's Run Of Draws
-
Manchester City manager Mark Hughes does not believe that his side's long run of draws is anything for the club's owners to be concerned about – not yet, anyway.
Hull City were the latest Premier League side to come away from Eastlands with a point on Saturday, meaning that the Citizens have now recorded a club record seven consecutive draws.
The lack of wins has led to some speculation that the Welshman's time at Eastlands could be running out, with some media reports claiming that former Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink is being lined up to replace Hughes.
But the City boss feels that his men will soon return to winning ways.
"It's not an issue yet," he told The Daily Mirror."There's pressure to get results, every manager will tell you that. But we're still very much in the mix at the top of the league.
"We've got two great games coming up which I'm sure will help us. If we can get a positive result on Wednesday [against Arsenal in the League Cup quarter finals] we'll be in great shape for Chelsea."

city made a lot of poor buys.
bridge, barry, lescott and SWP are typical over-priced, over-rated english players.

7 out of 21 possible points is not a good statistic.
They might as well have just won twice, drawn once, and lost the next four matches.
