De Jong back in City side

Nigel De Jong returned to the Manchester City side for the Barclays Premier League visit to West Ham.

The midfielder was cup-tied for the UEFA Cup clash against Copenhagen in mid-week but earned an immediate recall with Shaun Wright-Phillips suspended.

The home side brought Jack Collison into their starting XI in place of the banned Mark Noble, while David Di Michele was preferred to Freddie Sears up front.
