The Manchester Evening News<\/em>: \u201cI’d love to stay and fight, and until someone tells me to jog on then I’ll keep trying.<\/p>\n\u201cTo be honest, we’re just being professional at the moment.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere’s a lot of disappointment about what happened and how it happened.\u201d<\/p>\n
The omitted players were only told of their exclusion from the tour by e-mail, but Onuoha is trying not to let the rejection get to him.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou could say that people make mistakes and the situation could have been dealt with a bit differently,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut as far as the players are concerned, none of us are down in the dumps.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe’re just determined that we’re going to give everything we can.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the end of the day, we might not be on tour but we’ve not been shown the door so we’ve got to keep going.\u201d<\/p>\n
The versatile defender, who scored a spectacular goal against Chelsea while on loan at the Stadium of Light, says there is simply nothing else to do but carry on.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe’re still being paid by Manchester City,\u201d Onuoha continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe’re in pre-season so it’s always going to be hard.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut in any games you have, you should always try your best because you have to be ready for a big season.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs far as I’m concerned, I’m going to keep going through pre-season.<\/p>\n
\u201cNothing’s changed on my side and it’s the same with a few of the others too.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don’t have a locker, I don’t have a squad number now, but other than that, it’s same as.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s a case of coming in during the week, training hard and getting ready for any games that we have.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the first team are back in just over a week’s time so things might be different then.\u201d<\/p>\n
Without a squad number or a place in the tour, Onuoha faces a fight to earn his place in Roberto Mancini\u2019s 25-man Premier League squad.<\/p>\n
