Little Shaun Wright Is Out The Door

Pint sized winger Shaun Wright Phillips has resigned himself to leaving the club in the summer. He has had to make do with a place on the bench for most of the season and is now almost certainly set to leave in May. Roberto Mancini singled him out for criticism after City's recent Europa League draw describing him as ineffective. "To be quite honest, I'm here for three months and my heart is set on playing well for that period until the end of the season," said Wright-Phillips. Until the season is over, there's nothing much I can really say on the matter. I'm playing for City and that's the main thing. I don't do too much talking, I let my feet do that for me and that's what I plan on doing. I never think short-term or long-term. I don't feel I can do a job
 for the club, I know I can do a job for the club. And there's a big difference between feeling and knowing. I know what I'm capable of, so it's just a question of whether the club want me or not. I'm never encouraged by another player's misfortune. Adam is a good friend, so I'm disheartened he's injured - for club and country - I'm just concentrating on playing well myself and working hard in training, as I've done before. That's the main thing. There should be opportunities to play, because we're involved in two cup competitions and going well in the league."
