A fantastic game of cup football at the Etihad as Manchester City beat Everton 3-1 and 4-3 over the two legs. The game was played at an excellent tempo and Everton surprisingly took the lead through Barkley, when things seemed to open up for him before he drilled home smartly past Willy Caballero. This in […]
2-2 it ended in City’s last visit to Upton park and it was a largely frustrating one for City as it saw them concede with less than a minute gone. It was a game of two double’s as Enner Valencia and Sergio Aguero scored the goals for their respective teams. Blues manager Manuel Pellegrini will […]
Manchester City ran out 4-0 winners at a snowy Etihad as Crystal Palace carried on their consecutive run of games without a goal to five. City, who had the lions share of possession (72%), dominated the game and, despite a few tentative attempts from the Eagles, deserved their win. Goals from Aguero (2), Silva and […]
Having been held to a 0-0 draw midweek against a stern Everton side, the Blues welcome Crystal Palace who, despite being beaten by rock-bottom Aston Villa on Tuesday night, are having a quietly good season and lie in 8th place. Manchester City midfielder Fabian Delph spoke prior to this game describing the clash against Alan […]
It was a fairly turgid affair at the Etihad as Manchester City drew a blank against an Everton team that beat them in the League Cup a week ago. The rain didn’t help the occasion, which was lacking in chances throughout the first half. Everton looked dangerous on the counter-attack and created a couple of […]
With the game not being shown anywhere, not even dodgy online streaming sites, my usual player ratings wouldn’t have been wholly accurate. However, after having listened to the game on the radio – like most others, highlights of the goals were released. So why not pour over them? Aguero, Kelechi and De Bruyne were the […]
On the way back from Everton after what has become a fairly standard Manchester City away performance. Poor passing, lazy defending and lack of effort were, as usual, on show for all to see. Having gone 1-0 down Touré and co realised they had a football game to win and grew into it slightly more. […]
A monumental victory for City as the Blues came back from being 1-0 down to snatch victory right at the death. Having gone down off the back of a Kolarov own-goal, which was pitifully defended, it looked to be another away loss for Manuel Pellegrini’s men. Yet, when it really mattered Yaya Toure scored another […]
Manchester City were unlucky to draw a blank against a Leicester side who have, against all odds, found themselves 2nd placed going into the new year. City started well and attacked a Leicester side who have often been used to dictating the pace and tempo of games this season. Sterling looked spritely and had a […]
Having not won away from home since early September, Manchester City face a tough away game against table-topping Leicester City tomorrow evening. With Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri declaring the league’s top-scorer Jamie Vardy a doubt with what he described as a ‘fever’, City will have to turn their attention to Algerian winger and one of […]
Record breaking Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy is a doubt for the Foxes’ clash against Man City at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday evening after it was confirmed that the Englishman has been hit with a bout of illness. The current Premier League top-scorer was hauled off in the second half of their game […]
It seems like a long time since Manchester City recorded a comfortable home victory but today they did just that with a 4-1 victory against a meek Sunderland side. City started well and goals from Sterling, Toure and Bony in the first half saw the Blues go in at the break with a three-nil advantage. […]
