From Eurosports.
Manager Mark Hughes is confident the club's owners know exactly the direction Manchester City are moving in and is adamant draws will be turned into victories pretty soon.
Chairman Khaldoon al-Mubarak looked on as City were booed off following the 1-1 draw at home to Hull.
Hughes, who spent £120million on new players during last summer alone, said: "There is pressure to get results, any manager will tell you that. But we are still in the mix at the top end of the league.
"At times we look what we are - a team that has come together very quickly. At others we look strong and established.
"There is a process to go through and I believe the owners understand that concept as well.
"What we have to do is keep picking up points. We are doing that and it is only a matter of time before we start winning again."

To be fair there aren't many better at being calm in the job, and conducting themselves. But i always think it helps when you know you'll be a millionaire even when sacked. As Joe Royle once said "Pressure? Whatever happens I've still got my family and my 2 dogs etc............."
Unfortunately it's results that count and I'm fed up with losing quarter finals!

I think he's starting to show the pressure.
Keegan went the same way and you can see it in their eyes.
His language is also a little different.
Now is a good time for him to get some good news and some more support.
Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.
