Despite key players returning to the squad late after their exertions over the summer, City produced a solid performance down at Stamford Bridge. City were nowhere near their best. But it was still a professional job against a side with some big threats. Pep Guardiola could welcome back the England players to his starting XI for this weekend’s game with Ipswich Town, although there is a case for Rico Lewis to continue playing at right-back over Kyle Walker. City’s display against Chelsea was, in s...

While Ipswich Town lost 2-0 to Liverpool, they did impress against Arne Slot’s side and they could give Manchester City a tough test on Saturday. In the first-half in particular, Kieran McKenna’s side pressed the Reds excellently and looked the more threatening side. However, Liverpool’s much-improved second-half display coupled with their superior quality meant the likes of Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah scored the vital goals to secure the three points for them. Manchester City will also be expecting a game that is anything but a walk in the park for them. Pep Guardiola’s side will also be awa...

Manchester City have had several players at their disposal who have been world-class passers. David Silva’s name is one that stands out in particular — as the Spaniard could both register 15 assists during the 2011/2012 season while also being a master at playing the pass before the one that leads to a goal. The Manchester City legend’s incisive through balls also routinely found the likes of Sergio Aguero and Leroy Sane — who would seemingly be ready to run beyond defences due to the midfield maestro’s one-of-a-kind eye for a pass. Nowadays, Rodri too is one of the best passers in the world. ...
