Gianluigi Donnarumma keeps Manchester City in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 14 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Tempers go at Manchester City

Rodri was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Manchester City find a way past Cardiff City

Cardiff City made Manchester City work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Erling Haaland in the eights

A performance of 8.99 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Bolton Wanderers join the queue for Vitor Reis

Add another name to the list: Bolton Wanderers have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Vitor Reis. The answer from Manchester City has not changed — yet.

A masterclass from Phil Foden

Marked 8.81 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

A masterclass from Jérémy Doku

Marked 8.31 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

The manager makes an example of Elliot Anderson

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

One of those days for Rayan Cherki

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.03, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad17 Jul 2028

Nico González: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Manchester City have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market17 Jul 2028

Manchester City say no — this time

The offer from Nottingham Forest for Elliot Anderson was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Tempers go at Manchester City

Jérémy Doku was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Bolton Wanderers watching Abdukodir Khusanov

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Manchester City have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

One of those days for John Stones

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.42, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Market17 Jul 2028

Rotherham United expected to open talks for Spike Brits

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Manchester City will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Squad17 Jul 2028

Steven Wright stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Steven Wright and Manchester City agree another 5 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Loan watch17 Jul 2028

Nico O'Reilly counts the days

“I watch every Manchester City game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Arsenal runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Squad17 Jul 2028

Jérémy Doku has company in his position

The competition arrived without a word said to him about it. Jérémy Doku keeps the shirt for now, at Manchester City's convenience rather than his own.
