Manchester City fans haven't had much to complain about this season. And though Pep Guardiola 's record-breaking squad is already the best in the Premier League, the Catalan coach is set to add to it with Napoli midfielder Jorginho and Leicester forward Riyad Mahrez top of his likely incoming list. But there will be departures - and City fans think they know who they should be. Club legend Yaya Toure has already gone as a free agent after picking up his third Premier League winner's medal with the club. And we polled City fans on who else should be sold or moved on this summer. Unsurprisingly, there aren't many who Blues supporters want to see pushed out. But two players who have been loaned out in recent seasons head a list of four. Almost 93% of those polled think central defender Eliaquim Mangala should leave the Etihad. And not many fewer (90.6%) think Joe Hart should go with him. Hart has spent the last two seasons away from City on loan Torino and then West Ham, with … [Read more...] about Manchester City fans vote to sell four players in summer transfer window

Kompany’s rousing speech in pub packed full of Manchester City fans
Vincent Kompany gave a rousing speech in a pub full of Manchester City fans after the Blues were confirmed as Premier League champions. City have won the title for the third time after West Brom's shock win at Old Trafford on Sunday gave Pep Guardiola's side an unassailable lead at the top of the table. Kompany watched the game with his wife's family, some of whom are Manchester United fans, and used Periscope on the club's Twitter account from the celebrations after the game. He then spoke to Sky Sports before heading to a pub with Kyle Walker and Fabian Delph, packed full of City fans. And he gave a rousing speech, turning the air blue as he celebrated City's first title triumph since 2014. He said: "If there are kids in the room, cover their ears or send them out!

Manchester City fans have BIG role to play now
Vincent Kompany has called upon Manchester City fans to keep the faith - and urge their team on to two famous victories. The Blues skipper has appealed for the Blues' support to help lift the players as they head into a Manchester derby which could end with them winning the Premier League title. And the big defender refused to believe that the Champions League quarter-final dream is over, despite Liverpool's 3-0 lead from the first leg. A fervent atmosphere at Anfield undoubtedly played its part in inspiring Liverpool to a first-half blitz of the Blues. And Kompany wants City fans to raise the roof at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday, as they seek a miraculous comeback. Asked what the response of the City fans would mean, Kompany replied: “It’s everything. It’s everything. “I’ve seen it happen. Big games, big nights, they have always shown up and this will be one of them. “It’s been all nice and easy looking from the outside. It’s not been … [Read more...] about Manchester City fans have BIG role to play now
Case dropped against Manchester City fan charged after AFC Bournemouth match
THE CRIMINAL case against a football fan who ended up on the pitch during an AFC Bournemouth Premier League game has been dropped. Zack Weir was charged after he ended up on the field of play during celebrations of Manchester City star Raheem Sterling’s late goal back in August. The 20-year-old supporter from Bolton was charged with going onto the playing area during a designated football match without lawful authority or excuse at Vitality Stadium. However after pleading not guilty, the Crown Prosecution Service case against Mr Weir was dismissed after no evidence was offered at Poole Magistrates Court on Wednesday. Mr Weir said despite it taking six months he was pleased with the outcome. “This has been consistently in my mind and background for six months so it was a relief for the matter to close,” he said. “Before I travelled down I was confident because the CCTV was pretty clear. You go to football and live sport for the moments like that goal … [Read more...] about Case dropped against Manchester City fan charged after AFC Bournemouth match
