Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola met the media today, and he provided an update on John Stones, and his recovery from a thigh injury. The English defender has returned to training, and while he obviously will not be ready for this weekend's headliner clash at Liverpool, he might be able to return next weekend, possibly. We could see Stones feature again on Feb. 14, when … [Read more...] about Man City Team News at Liverpool: John Stones, Bernardo Silva, Jeremy Doku

Pep Guardiola Gets Candid About Manchester City Transfer Spending
Pep Guardiola gave some great soundbites today at his midweek press conference, and he certainly knows it. He even said so, at the end of his golden quote. The January transfer window closed yesterday, with Manchester City being arguably the most active club over the spending period. That wasn't too hard to do, as almost everybody else was pretty moribund when it came to … [Read more...] about Pep Guardiola Gets Candid About Manchester City Transfer Spending
Newcastle United Team News at Man City: Bruno Guimaraes, Sven Botman, Lewis Miley

Manchester City Team News at Tottenham Hotspur: Jeremy Doku, Ruben Dias
Jeremy Doku is injured again, and he's also injured in the same part of the body (calf) that he was the last time out. Manchester City assistant Pep Lijnders, instead of the manager himself Pep Guardiola (so this time, we won't be getting an ultra-specific prediction from Guardiola on when Doku will come back), met the media today and gave an update on the situation: "It's a … [Read more...] about Manchester City Team News at Tottenham Hotspur: Jeremy Doku, Ruben Dias
Man City Team News vs Galatasaray: Rodri, Semenyo, Guehi, Gonzalez, Savinho
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was blunt about it- his side is going to be missing several key players on Wednesday night, for a whole host of reasons. Rodri picked up two yellows (which obviously equals one red card) in less than a minute against Bodo/Glimt last week. So Rodri is thus suspended for this week's Champions League clash, against Galatasaray. … [Read more...] about Man City Team News vs Galatasaray: Rodri, Semenyo, Guehi, Gonzalez, Savinho
Man City Team News vs Wolves: Oscar Bobb, Matheus Nunes, Nico Gonzalez
Manchester City winger Oscar Bobb looks likely to miss out on the visit from Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday. Bobb could be a Fulham player by then, or at least in the process of becoming one, and thus held out of the league fixture. Fulham are reportedly willing to bid £35 million to make Bobb their first winter window signing. Bobb was struggling for minutes already, … [Read more...] about Man City Team News vs Wolves: Oscar Bobb, Matheus Nunes, Nico Gonzalez
Manchester City Team News at Bodo/Glimt: Nico Gonzalez, Matheus Nunes
Manchester City suffered a crushing blow, to their Premier League title hopes, in losing the Manchester derby to United yesterday. There is still a chance for them to get back into the title race, but it doesn't look good. Their odds are now better in the Champions League, where a last 16 place is all but assured, and maybe they should prioritize that competition? Up next is … [Read more...] about Manchester City Team News at Bodo/Glimt: Nico Gonzalez, Matheus Nunes
Marc Guehi Set for Manchester City Medical, Ahead of £20m Transfer
At halftime of the January transfer window, Manchester City seem to be winning it. First they splashed the cash (£64m) for Antoine Semenyo, grabbing the Premier League's third leading scorer away from AFC Bournemouth. Now they're finalizing a deal to sign Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi. An agreement has been reached in principle, for about £20m (plus add-ons). … [Read more...] about Marc Guehi Set for Manchester City Medical, Ahead of £20m Transfer
Manchester United Team News vs Man City: Carrick, Mbeumo, Amad, Mazraoui
The (second) Michael Carrick (interim) era of Manchester United football is here, and it begins on Saturday with the big local derby. This time, Carrick will get 17 matches in charge (all in the league) instead of the three that he had last time. Short-term interim boss Darren Fletcher now returns to youth team coaching. The biggest challenge for Carrick is to get his … [Read more...] about Manchester United Team News vs Man City: Carrick, Mbeumo, Amad, Mazraoui
Man City Team News at United: Rayan Ait-Nouri, Omar Marmoush
Rayan Ait-Nouri returned to action for Manchester City last night, making a brief cameo off the bench. Ait-Nouri, back in the fold after Africa Cup of Nations duty with Algeria, came on in the 88' of Man City's 2-0 win over Newcastle United in the first leg of their League Cup semifinal tie. Maybe Ait-Nouri takes on a larger role in the Manchester Derby on Saturday? … [Read more...] about Man City Team News at United: Rayan Ait-Nouri, Omar Marmoush
