‘Question mark’ hangs over my City future, says Ireland

STEPHEN IRELAND has admitted there is a major question mark over his Manchester City future.

After earning a PFA Young Player of the Year nomination with some stellar performances last term, Ireland has struggled badly this year.

Injury, illness and loss of form have combined to see him go backwards in his quest for a regular starting slot and having missed Wednesday’s defeat to Spurs, Ireland has still only appeared 11 times under Roberto Mancini.
