Stephen Ireland has been given the all-clear after being taken to hospital last night following Manchester City’s Carling Cup win over Fulham. The midfielder was substituted complaining of dizziness and feeling unwell in the 75th minute, and was later taken for tests.

However, the club this morning have confirmed that nothing was found wrong with the 23-year-old from Cobh, who will now take some time to rest before resuming training, but is expected to be available for Monday’s visit of West Ham.
