Marked for Christopher Graham

Match16 Feb 2033

Manchester City do the business in Europe

1‑0. Continental football is where a club finds out what it actually is, and Manchester City came through the finding-out well against Young Boys.

Market21 Feb 2033

Gabri Veiga has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Manchester City they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Market21 Feb 2033

Manchester City say no — this time

The offer from Grimsby Town for Malick Fofana 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.

Squad21 Feb 2033

20 days out for Christopher Graham after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Manchester City will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Squad21 Feb 2033

Bart Verbruggen stands alone

7 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Market21 Feb 2033

Kepa Arrizabalaga’s move to Tottenham falls through

The deal that would have taken Kepa Arrizabalaga to Tottenham has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Manchester City with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Match19 Feb 2033

Manchester City cannot stop winning

3 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Squad21 Feb 2033

Jérémy Doku is carrying Manchester City

11 goals and a season average of 7.31. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

Match19 Feb 2033

Omari Hutchinson the difference as Manchester City beat Tottenham

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Omari Hutchinson. 1‑0 against Tottenham, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Market14 Feb 2033

Only the photograph left for Dušan Vlahović

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Dušan Vlahović will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Manchester City the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Market14 Feb 2033

Manchester City say no — this time

The offer from Middlesbrough for Johan Manzambi 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.

Squad14 Feb 2033

A fracture rules Christopher Graham out for 28 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Manchester City will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Player ratings14 Feb 2033

Nobody could get near Malick Fofana

Successful dribbles: 27. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market14 Feb 2033

So close: Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall’s move dies late

The fee was agreed and the flight was looked at — and then the phone stopped ringing. Rotherham United moved on, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall reports back to Manchester City, and everybody pretends Monday is just Monday.

Market14 Feb 2033

Bart Verbruggen wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Manchester City hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad14 Feb 2033

Words exchanged at Manchester City

Abdukodir Khusanov and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match12 Feb 2033

Another one collected away from home

5 on the bounce on the road for Manchester City. The coaches leave early, arrive at unlovely grounds in the dark, and keep coming home with three points.

The dugout14 Feb 2033

The manager makes an example of Bart Verbruggen

“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.
