Pellegrini: Worst we have played here in a year

City’s dreams of an unprecedented four trophies — or at least a domestic treble — were buoyed by collecting the Capital One Cup last week. But against Championship Wigan, managed by legendary former City player Uwe Rosler, City found themselves 2-0 after an hour to goals from Jordi Gomez and James Perch before a Samir Nasri effort gave them hope.
“I think maybe it was the worst we have played here in a year,” said Pellegrini. “We didn’t have the pace to play against a team that is in a very good place. We knew before the match we were going to play against a difficult team and maybe we thought it was not so difficult and when we reacted it was too late. We finished one trophy and we won that. Now we have to continue playing in the Champions League and the Premier League, we have a lot of things to fight for between now and the end of the season.
