Sven: We need to create more

Sven Goran Eriksson says Man City need to create more in front of goal after seeing them go down to Blackburn.

Eriksson seeks improvement in the final third

The Eastlands side often played nice football at Ewood Park, but rarely looked like scoring after falling behind to Benni McCarthy's early goal.

"Maybe we were nicer to see than we were dangerous," he told Sky Sports.

"For all our possession we have to create more chances than we did in this match.

"We have to be a little bit better in the last third, also Blackburn defended very well.

"We have to be better. We have to create more chances if we want to win games in the future."

Although Eriksson felt Tugay and Richard Dunne's dismissals were soft, he believes referee Mike Dean had no choice but to produce red.

"There were no bad fouls. It was not an ugly game," the Swede continued.

"I can't say that the referee did wrongly. I thought he got both decisions right."
