The midfielder reports a very good feeling within the squad and a determination to get back to winning way after the Everton blip!
Speaking to the official site he said: “After the game against Everton, I think it was important to have some rest and a break to come back here and start again and try to find the win again.
“We are back to league action and we are in a better position than a few months ago, but we want to keep picking up points.
“We just need to keep going and need to make sure we take as many points as possible by the end of the season.”
As part of the team that won last season at City via a Jack Collison goal he’s looking for more of the same.
He said: “Of course we can win there again, but Stoke did well in their last home game by winning against Arsenal, so we need to go there and try to give our best and come back with the win.”
