Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure accepts they must do better away from the Etihad.
Six straight victories have been chalked up at the Etihad Stadium with an astonishing 26 goals scored. Away from home, relegation-threatened Fulham have picked up more points.
"It was a very important win," said Toure, "Our loss at Sunderland was hard to take. It's always difficult when you lose a game like that.
"We want to regain the Premier League title. We knew it would be difficult and if we are to stand a chance of doing that we have to win away from home.
"We are trying to find a balance. At home, we are prolific. Away it's more difficult. Either the referee is not fine or the fans or the opponents are making it really hard. That's part of football. That's the Premier League.
"We have to start winning away from home. It's not just the big teams who are the problem. It's the normal teams. The manager is working on finding the right balance."
