Platt: City only going to get better

Manchester City assistant boss David Platt has warned Manchester United the Blues will not go away.

City may have conceded defeat to United in their Premier League title defence but their hard-earned 2-1 win in the derby at Old Trafford not only restored pride but made a psychological point.

The aim now for City is to secure second place and regroup sufficiently over the summer to launch a stronger challenge next season.
