    On sportinglife.com it says he's 'hamstrung'. It could just be a twinge, and maybe leaving him out was just a precaution. But I'm still a bit worried.

    This is what I found:

    "Mark Hughes made one change to his City side. Ben-Haim comes in for Richard Dunne, as a precautionary measure, to ensure Dunne is ok for Sunday`s game against Liverpool."

    So looks like he's not a worry.

    Mark Hughes makes just the one forced changed from the defeat at Wigan as Richard Dunne's slight knock means Tal Ben-Haim comes in to replace him with Micah Richards taking the captain's armband
    When there's any preview for the Liverpool game at the weekend, I'll post it here

    Thank God for that........as long as we are as tight at the back as we were in Montenegro, our attacking strengths will ensure the 3 points against Cyprus

    CITY manager Mark Hughes will monitor Richard Dunne’s fitness ahead of the Premier League match against Liverpool on Sunday.

    Republic of Ireland central defender Dunne was forced to sit out the UEFA Cup victory over AC Omonia On Thursday because of a hamstring problem.

    It does not sound too serious.
