Manchester City can afford no more mistakes, says Kompany
Manchester City, who have failed to win back-to-back league games since October, slump to their eighth league loss of their campaign. – Reuters file pic, March 4, 2016.Manchester City cannot afford to make any more mistakes if they hope to launch a serious bid for the Premier League title this campaign, captain Vincent Kompany has said.
Wednesday's 3-0 loss to Liverpool condemned City to their third successive league defeat for the first time since 2008 and left them fourth in the table, 10 points behind leaders Leicester City with a game in hand.
"We can't make any more mistakes but I didn't expect all the other teams to lose," central defender Kompany told British media, referring to midweek losses for title-chasing rivals Tottenham and Arsenal.
"It is an awkward season... good for the fans but you can't predict anything, can you? If there is one guarantee for this season, it is nothing is sure."
