For a guy who is enduring the longest winless stretch of his brief yet staggeringly successful managerial career, Pep Guardiola seems unburdened by the lack of results for Manchester City of late.Looking to regroup from being ousted from the EFL Cup, Manchester City try to stop the rot and avoid a seventh consecutive match without a win in all competitions Saturday against West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns.Though the Citizens (6-2-1) are leading the Premier League on goal difference over both Arsenal and Liverpool, things are not all rosy on the blue side in the north of England. Manchester City have not won since a 3-1 victory at Swansea City on Sept. 24, going 0-3-3 in what is the clubs longest winless spell since 2008.Of course, among the opponents Guardiola did not defeat were title hopefuls Tottenham Hotspur, his former club Barcelona and most recently neighbours Manchester United -- though all three of those matches were on the road. And while winning four trophies is no longer in the cards for City following their 1-0 loss Wednesday on the red side of town at United, Guardiola was pleased with how his youthful side responded to the challenges of derby life.Aleix (Garcia) was outstanding -- Pablo Maffeo as well, fighting with (Marcus) Rashford and (Paul) Pogba, said Guardiola, referring to two of the nine changes he made from last weekends 1-1 draw versus Southampton. We made a good performance, so no regrets. We were fighting until the last minute.We are a young team. Kelechi (Iheanacho) is 20, Leroy (Sane) 20, Pablo 19 -- it is a good experience for them.Guardiola conceded the six-match winless stretch is not a good situation, but the game served as a testament to his long-term vision for the club that was not going to be sacrificed in this competition -- even against Citys archrivals.The manager did make one move as a precaution, replacing oft-injured captain and defender Vincent Kompany at halftime. Teammate Gael Clichy noted the team dipped in form after the talismans departure, but supported Guardiolas decision, noting, Hes been out for quite some time and he played 80 minutes three days ago. He was sensible in not getting injured again.A common thread for Citys struggles has been the lack of scoring from Sergio Aguero, though the Argentina international did not play Wednesday at Old Trafford. Aguero, who fired in 11 goals in his first seven matches in all competitions, has not found the back of the net in 325 minutes over his last five contests.But the danger man for City in this match could be David Silva, who has four goals and three assists in his last eight against the Baggies. Aguero, though, hasnt been a slouch with five goals and three assists in eight lifetime contests versus West Bromwich Albion.West Brom (2-4-3) enter this match 13th in the table, ahead of Burnley and West Ham United on goal difference. They are winless in their last four matches (0-3-1) after dropping a 2-1 decision at Anfield to Liverpool last weekend.The Baggies lone goal came from Gareth McAuley on 81 minutes.The defeat again showed what a fine line manager Tony Pulis rides as he seeks his primary target of 40 points and safety in the Premier League. West Brom have struggled offensively all season save their stunning four-goal outburst last month versus West Ham United. Their defence has been just good enough to keep them in games while posting just two clean sheets thus far.The two goals were more or less errors on our part unfortunately, defender Jonas Olsson told West Broms official website. If we had scored our goal earlier we maybe wouldve had a chance to get a point. We lost to a very good side and thats the way it goes sometimes.Pulis, who received a one-year contract extension this week, will have to make at least one change since midfielder Claudio Yacob will serve a one-match ban after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season. He likely will make a second since centre back Jonny Evans is set to return after serving a one-match suspension at Anfield.The series has been one way of traffic as Manchester City have won nine on the bounce in league play since a scoreless draw on Boxing Day in 2011. The Citizens are 12-1-0 against the Baggies in the top flight since a 2-1 setback Dec. 21, 2008.West Brom have been gracious hosts to City at The Hawthorns, losing the last four there by a combined 11-4 scoreline and taking just one point in the last six league contests.Air Max 90 Cheap Wholesale .

But that didnt stop him from scoring a career-high 23 points to lead Nebraska past Sacramento State 83-61.Glynn actually tonight had a bad headache, said Nebraska coach Tim Miles. I dont know if it was a migraine or not. But we had to take him out two or three times and get him hydrated and make sure he got medicine. If he can do that in that condition ... hes really good. Glynn is a guy thats a game changer.Watson didnt mention the headache after the game. Rather, he attributed his scoring to aggressive play.I just tried to play aggressive and execute our game plan, Watson said. That was basically what I tried to do, was play aggressive and try to get my teammates open. I had open shots so I took them, that was basically it.Watson kept Nebraska (1-0) in the game in the first half, tying his career-high with 17 points on 7 of 10 shots. The rest of the Huskers were just 9 of 29 in the half, earning them a halftime butt chewing from Miles.Nebraska opened the second period with a 9-2 run, going up 45-35 on Tai Websters driving layup with 17:22 left. That opening spurt was the game changer, said Sacramento State coach Brian Katz.We had a pretty good first half and the separation happened in the first five points of the second half, Katz said. They got five points in transition and went from 36-33 to 41-33, and I thought that was the difference in the game. The Huskers hit 10 of 12 shots in the first eight minutes of the second half, taking a 58-44 lead on Websters jumper with 12:233 remaining.ddddddddddddI thought the second half was really good, Miles said. But they were pretty good early too. Unfortunately, we missed 12 shots within what, four feet in the first half. I was happy with the team. They came out and did what they had to do to win.Nebraska never trailed, but saw Sacramento State (0-2) tie the game at 31 on Jeff Wus basket with 2:01 left in the first half. Watson responded with a 3-point play to put the Huskers in the lead for good.THE BIG PICTURENebraska: Five of the 10 Huskers who took the floor Sunday were seeing their first action as Huskers. All five came off the bench. They scored just five points combined.Sacramento State: The Hornets hit 48 percent of their shots in the first half to stay close to the Huskers. But Sacramento State struggled from the field in the final 20 minutes, hitting just 9 of 26 attempts and only 2 of 12 from 3-point range.QUOTABLEMiles on Nebraskas first half play: We were just rushing on offense, there was no poise. It was like one, two passes and force your way in there. The reason we missed 12 shots (near the basket) was because they werent very good shots. You cant get an offensive rebound, puke on yourself, then try to put it back in there. It just seemed like we were playing mindless basketball.UP NEXTNebraska hosts the University of Mary, Miless alma mater, Tuesday.Sacramento State will host Antelope Valley Thursday in its home opener.
