This is how it is going to be for Manchester City from now on. There will be the occasional flourishes as weaker opponents are eviscerated and the goals rattle in but, away from the Etihad Stadium especially, victories will be hard won, if won at all. Yesterday at The Hawthorns, City drew a blank for the first time in this previously free-scoring season, their stellar cast of strikers unable to penetrate a supremely drilled and dedicated West Bromwich Albion defence. Roberto Mancini's team remain atop the Premier League, but now only by goal difference from their neighbours.
