Toure not concerned by dip in Man City home form

Yaya Toure says he is not too worried about Manchester City's recent form slide.


The Sky Blues were beaten at the Etihad Stadium by Juventus in the Champions League last week before losing at home again to West Ham United in the Premier League on Saturday.

After such a brilliant start to the season, it has been a wake-up call for City, but star midfielder Toure does not believe the back-to-back defeats will have too much of a negative affect on the squad.

"I'm not worried," he said.

"Sometimes it is just about luck. We played well against West Ham but we were unlucky again, like we were against Juventus.

"The score did not reflect the whole game.

"We had so many shots and I missed some chances too. It comes down to little margins. We just lacked that little bit of luck. Now we have to deal with this defeat. We have fantastic players in the dressing room and we are going to come back, that's for sure."
