Currently, Manchester City are something that they haven't been in a very long while- vulnerable. We're nearly certain that Slovan Bratislava simply do not have what it takes to knock them off, but future opponents, down the line, have to be licking their chops. With Rodri out for the season, Man City just will not be the same team. You saw that last season when he was … [Read more...] about Manchester City Starting XI Prediction at Slovan Bratislava

Man City Team News at Slovan Bratislava: Haaland, Rodri, De Bruyne
For Manchester City, some of their biggest guns will be either out, or potentially out, due to injury tomorrow night. First off, in case you missed it, Rodri is now done for the season, with an ACL injury. So that's a big blow. Then you have striker Erling Haaland, who is a doubt for the trip to Slovan Bratislava due to a knock. The score draw with Newcastle United on Saturday … [Read more...] about Man City Team News at Slovan Bratislava: Haaland, Rodri, De Bruyne
Manchester City Starting XI Prediction vs Arsenal FC
Friday, at his pre Arsenal FC news conference, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was asked about the ongoing debate over fixture congestion and the added workload that it puts on the players. His own midfielder, Rodri, made comments earlier this week that footballers could strike if they keep up the overscheduling. Pep says that Rodri could really be on to something … [Read more...] about Manchester City Starting XI Prediction vs Arsenal FC
Arsenal FC Starting XI Prediction at Manchester City
Once again, it's Manchester City and Arsenal up at the top of the table, just like its been for the past two seasons. Is this the year student (Mikel Arteta) finally bests teacher (Pep Guardiola)?

Man City Team News vs Inter Milan: Nathan Ake, Savinho, Oscar Bobb
We now know when Nathan Ake might be returning to action for Manchester City. Having suffered a hamstring injury in the Netherlands' UEFA Nations League game with Germany, the Dutchman underwent scans that ultimately determined he'll be out of action until after the October international break is complete. So no Nathan Ake until November, which obviously means no Nathan Ake on … [Read more...] about Man City Team News vs Inter Milan: Nathan Ake, Savinho, Oscar Bobb
Man City Team News vs Brentford FC: Nathan Ake, Savio, Phil Foden
What a bummer for Nathan Ake and Manchester City. Just an awful, awful development this international period. Ake had to be stretchered off last night, after suffering a serious injury in the thigh/hamstring area during the Netherlands 2-2 draw with Germany. See this is why clubs hate international breaks so much. Nathan Ake was visibly in tears, as he was no doubt in a … [Read more...] about Man City Team News vs Brentford FC: Nathan Ake, Savio, Phil Foden
Manchester City Injury Updates: Phil Foden, Oscar Bobb, Savio
The Saudi Pro League transfer window has now officially closed, so that puts an end to any speculation of Ederson and/or Kevin De Bruyne leaving this season.

And what we'll talk about here is the Man City fitness … [Read more...] about Manchester City Injury Updates: Phil Foden, Oscar Bobb, Savio
West Ham Starting XI Prediction vs Manchester City
West Ham United have been very fortunate, having played the early part of the season with no injury concerns at all. Ahead of the Man City clash on Saturday, they emerged unscathed once again tonight, having bested AFC Bournemouth 1-0 in the EFL Cup. The old cliche "it's better to be lucky than good" certainly applies to the Irons, in their League Cup triumph. … [Read more...] about West Ham Starting XI Prediction vs Manchester City
Manchester City Starting XI Prediction at West Ham United
Manchester City visits West Ham United on Saturday, and it'll be the next edition in what has been a very lopsided series. Since Pep Guardiola took control of Man City in 2016 they have never lost a league fixture to the Hammers. In fact, the only victory by the East Londoners, during the Pep era, came in the 2021-22 League Cup, and they needed penalties to get there. Things … [Read more...] about Manchester City Starting XI Prediction at West Ham United
Man City Team News at West Ham: Rodri, Phil Foden, Mateo Kovacic
Erling Haaland gets all the headlines, with Kevin De Bruyne not too far behind him, in this regard, but Rodri is the sparkplug that makes the Manchester City engine roar. The midfield maestro is just as important to City's success as Haaland, De Bruyne, Ruben Dias, Phil Foden etc. Due to match fitness issues Rodri has not featured yet this season, so he is thus a doubt for … [Read more...] about Man City Team News at West Ham: Rodri, Phil Foden, Mateo Kovacic
