Man City boss Eriksson wants more goals from Petrov

Manchester City boss Sven Goran Eriksson wants Martin Petrov to get on the scoresheet more after his strike in Saturday's 3-3 draw with Fulham.

Eriksson said: "He normally scores goals, I don't know how many shots he has had during the season, and he has been in a few good positions, but today he took his chances. They were two nice goals, I'm happy for him, he needed that.

"I think he's a great player, and he's an important one for us. He has pace, good technique and a great shot, I'm very happy for him."
