Injuries mount for City

Manchester City face a number of injury doubts ahead of Sunday’s Barclays Premiership clash with Tottenham at Eastlands.

Micah Richards and goalkeeper Nicky Weaver both sustained dead legs in last weekend’s Manchester derby defeat at Old Trafford, Claudio Reyna has a tight hamstring, while Dietmar Hamann picked up a knock in training.

In addition, Ben Thatcher and Bernardo Corradi are both suspended, while Trevor Sinclair and Sun Jihai (both knee) are out with long-term problems.

Provisional squad: Weaver, Isaksson, Hart, Onuoha, Richards, Dunne, Distin, M Mills, Jordan, Ireland, Reyna, Barton, Dabo, Trabelsi, Beasley, Hamann, Vassell, Samaras, Dickov, Miller.
