    VIDEO: Manchester City 1 – 2 Liverpool [Highlights & Goals] (Aggregate 1-5)

    April 10, 2018 - By 

    In comparison to his counterpart, it’s a much more conservative selection from Klopp, who rested several of his key players against Everton. Salah has been passed fit to start and returns in place of Danny Ings, while Dominic Solanke drops out for Roberto Firmino. Jordan Henderson is suspended, so Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain comes in. Andrew Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold were superb at Anfield last week, and both return to Liverpool’s defence. Danilo, Vincent Kompany, Ilkay Gundogan and Fabian Delph drop out, with Kyle Walker, Aymeric Laporte, Kevin De Bruyne and Gabriel Jesus returning. Guardiola seems to be starting with a three-man…

    VIDEO: Manchester City 2 – 3 Manchester United [Premier League] Highlights 2017/18

    April 8, 2018 - By 

    Man City are unbeaten in their last 27 home league games (W22 D5), winning the last 14 in a row. Only twice has a team ever had a longer winning run at home in the Premier League (Man City 20 between March 2011 and March 2012, and Man Utd 19 between October 2010 and October 2011). Manchester United have lost eight of their last 13 Premier League games against Man City (W3 D2) – their previous eight top-flight defeats against Man City came over a 49-game period stretching back to March 1978. There are two changes for United from their…

    VIDEO: Liverpool 3 – 0 Manchester City [Champions League] Highlights 2017/18

    April 4, 2018 - By 

    From five to two, the Premier League participation was whittled down in the last 16, and will be halved again come semi-final time, as Liverpool and Manchester City come to a head. Pep Guardiola’s juggernaut are the favourites for this year’s crown given their dominance but, much like how PSG wanted to avoid Real, City will have wanted to avoid Liverpool, the team whose strengths marry up to their weaknesses perfectly. Guardiola branded the triumvirate of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino “almost unstoppable” but will hope the “almost” part of that assertion is more true than the “unstoppable”…

    VIDEO: Everton 1 – 3 Manchester City [Premier League] Highlights 2017/18

    April 1, 2018 - By 

    A first-half blitz laid the foundations for Manchester City’s latest win as Everton were brushed aside on Saturday. Manchester City warmed up for a season-defining month with a commanding 3-1 win over Everton at Goodison Park to set up a potential Premier League title party against rivals United. Pep Guardiola’s side face Liverpool over two legs in the Champions League quarter-final and welcome their bitter Manchester rivals to the Etihad Stadium in April, when they will also travel to Tottenham. It is a run of games that could see them win the Premier League and take a huge step towards…

    VIDEO: Stoke City 0 – 2 Manchester City [Premier League] Highlights 2017/18

    March 13, 2018 - By 

    Manchester City restored their 16-point lead at the Premier League summit thanks to a David Silva-inspired 2-0 win at Stoke City on Monday. David Silva scored both goals as Manchester City made light work of Stoke City in a routine 2-0 win at the bet365 Stadium, despite being without the injured Sergio Aguero.   Pep Guardiola was unable to select Aguero due to a knee injury, but the Argentina star’s absence was hardly noticed as City edged a little closer to the Premier League title, with Silva stealing the show. Any chance of struggling Stoke causing an upset looked over…

    VIDEO: Manchester City 1 – 2 Basel [Champions League] Highlights 2017/18

    March 8, 2018 - By 

    Mohamed Elyounoussi scored and set up another as Basel beat Manchester City, who progressed to the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Manchester City cruised into the quarter-finals of the Champions League despite falling to a 2-1 loss at home by Basel, Pep Guardiola’s men progressing 5-2 on aggregate.   A comprehensive 4-0 win in Switzerland three weeks ago gave City a foot in the last eight and the chance of a Basel comeback was always extremely remote, but the hosts struggled for cohesion after nine changes and slipped to a first home defeat in any competition since December 2016. Guardiola…

    Chelsea are without N’Golo Kante this afternoon, with Fabregas coming into the team to replace him from the side that was beaten by United last week. Morata also drops to the bench from that team as Pedro replaces his compatriot in the line-up. City have made two changes to their side that beat Arsenal during the week. Zinchenko and Laporte come into the fold this afternoon as Danilo and Kompany drop to the bench. Fernandinho is out due to injury, leaving Gundogan in the holding role once again. Chelsea subs: Willy Caballero, Alvaro Morata, Olivier Giroud, Davide Zappacosta, Gary Cahill,…

    VIDEO: Arsenal 0 – 3 Manchester City [Premier League] Highlights 2017/18

    March 2, 2018 - By 

    Manchester City delivered another sublime show of attacking brilliance as Pep Guardiola’s side marked the manager’s 100th game in charge with a 3-0 demolition of hapless Arsenal. City beat Arsenal by the same scoreline in Sunday’s EFL Cup final win at Wembley, giving Guardiola a first trophy after 18 months in English football. And the runaway Premier League leaders – now 16 points clear of rivals Manchester United – blew Arsenal away before the break, becoming the first team to score three goals away to the Gunners in the first half of a Premier League match. Arsenal made a decent…

    Wigan Athletic 1 Manchester City 0: Pep Guardiola’s City knocked Out of FA Cup

    February 20, 2018 - By 

    It is hard to quantify what constitutes the biggest cup upset, but this has to rank among them. It even has the right to be debated as the greatest ever, given what a brilliant team Manchester City are, how they have dominated and where Wigan are right now. Manchester City’s hopes of an unprecedented quadruple have gone up in flames. “Will Grigg’s on fire,” was the anthem of Northern Ireland’s Euro 2016 campaign, but the striker did not feature for his country during that tournament. His contribution for Wigan, though, was immense.
