Rodri Targets Man City Return Before End of Season

wontumionlineSports
Manchester City midfielder Rodri hopes to return to action before the end of the season. Rodri ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee during City’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal in September, an injury boss Pep Guardiola said would keep him out for the rest of the season. City have failed to win any of their past six games in all competitions in Rodri’s absence, and the Spain international hopes to help his team-mates before the season is over. “My target is to come back this season. I don’t give up on this season, [but] I don’t want to make…

Man City players Accuse Arsenal Of ‘Dark Arts’ As Arteta Hails ‘Miracle’

wontumionlineSports,
Manchester City forward Bernardo Silva said only one team came to play football in their 2-2 Premier League draw with Arsenal, who were accused of employing “dark arts” at Etihad Stadium. But Gunners manager Mikel Arteta claimed it was “a miracle” his side came so close to victory after playing the second half with 10 men. John Stones’ 98th-minute equaliser denied Arsenal what would have been a huge victory over the defending champions. After winger Leandro Trossard was controversially sent off in first-half injury time, the Gunners had just 12.5% of possession in the second half. City had 28 shots…

‘Streetwise Arsenal Show They Are Real Deal Amid Man City Pain’

wontumionlineSports,
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta and his players could not hide their pain in the pouring Mancunian rain as a statement win they would rate higher than any other was snatched away at the death. The clock read 97 minutes and 14 seconds – those 14 seconds crucial to the chaotic conclusion – when John Stones rewarded Manchester City’s increasingly desperate efforts with an equaliser. City manager Pep Guardiola led celebrations that smacked of victory rather than a point claimed at the last, this in itself a testimony to tortuous experience this increasingly mature and steely Arsenal put them through. Arsenal…

Man City Open Title Defence With Victory At Chelsea

wontumionlineSports,
Erling Haaland scored on his 100th Manchester City appearance as the Premier League champions began their title defence with a win against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Haaland opened the scoring on 18 minutes with a dinked finish over Robert Sanchez for his 91st City goal since joining from Borussia Dortmund in 2022. Former Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovacic made the game safe late on with a curling shot from just outside the penalty area. A low-key match only fleetingly burst into life, with Kevin de Bruyne curling just wide from the edge of the box shortly after Haaland’s opener, before Sanchez…

‘Time To Resolve’ Man City Charges – Premier League CEO

wontumionlineSports, ,
Premier League chief executive Richard Masters says it is “self-evident” the case around Manchester City’s 115 charges needs to be resolved for the good of the league.

In an interview with BBC sports editor Dan Roan, Masters said he thinks “it is time now for the case to resolve itself”. When asked whether the case casts a shadow over the league, he said: “It’s been going on for…

Liverpool v Man City: Erling Haaland Says Trent Alexander-Arnold ‘Doesn’t Know’ How Treble Feels

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland “doesn’t mind” what Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold says as he “doesn’t know” how it feels to win the Treble. The Reds defender said that Liverpool’s trophies under Jurgen Klopp “will mean more” than City’s under Pep Guardiola. The Premier League leaders are at home on Sunday to City, who won the league, FA Cup and Champions League last term. “I’ve been here one year and I won the Treble and it was quite a nice feeling,” Haaland told Sky Sports. “I don’t think he knows exactly this feeling.
