Sergio Aguero: Says City will work hard to turn season around

Any hope of Roberto Mancini's side retaining the Barclays Premier League title appeared to go up in smoke on Saturday after they suffered an embarrassing 3-1 defeat at Southampton.

City goalkeeper Joe Hart said in the build-up that anything but victory at St Mary's was likely to hand Manchester United the title, with their rivals now able to go 12 points clear at the top with victory against Everton this afternoon.

"Some days, nothing works the way it should," Argentina international Aguero said via his Twitter account, @aguerosergiokun.

"This was one of those days. There's no excuse - we need to work hard to forge ahead.

"It all looks a bit grim right now, but I won't believe giving up is an option."

They were sentiments echoed by captain Kompany, who was forced to watch yesterday's defeat on the south coast from the stands due to injury.

"Our fans sang and stood behind us all game yesterday, despite losing," he said on Twitter this morning.

"Just reminds me that there will always be a lot to play for. #MCFC !!"

m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.

afa has to be favourite for the Everton job now, surely :) He'll realise his ambition to live and work on Merseyside again, get the best out of whoever plays for them, maybe win some cups and be thoroughly loathed by the toffee fans. What's not to like? Go ead, Ken, gimajob!
