After a chastening experience in the games with Tottenham and Feyenoord, David Mooney is joined by One Football's Dan Burke and Football365's Sarah Winterburn to look at how Manchester City can stop the rot. It's Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday, so things aren't getting any easier any time soon - Neil Atkinson from The Anfield Wrap joins the show to discuss that game at the weekend, while we also hear from journalist and Nottingham Forest fan Nick Miller about the Wednesday night game coming up at the Etihad. Both the Liverpool and Forest games will be City's designated Rainbow Laces matches, so we also hear from a range of LGBTQ+ fans about their experiences at the football. Former City goalkeeper and now City fan Andie Worrall, who is a gay woman, and supporters Oli McCoole, who is bisexual and trans, and Sam White, who is a gay man, discuss attitudes in the Etihad and on social media. ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon.

After the news that Pep Guardiola is going to extend his contract at Manchester City, David Mooney is joined by fans Richard Burns and Rachel Herdson to discuss what a boost it will be. The Athletic's Sam Lee, who broke the story, explains what's happening and what should happen later this week. Jack from Rule the Roost speaks to the show to give us insight into what's happening with Tottenham at the moment, while Luuk from the Kein Geloel podcast explains what to expect from Feyenoord. On Sunday, Taylor Harwood-Bellis became the 19th player to score for their country after graduating from the City academy, when he found the net for England against the Republic of Ireland. We've put Dan Burke to task to take a look at the previous 18. We're also discussing our favourite 'non-obvious' pre- and post-takeover games and goals. ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon.

David Mooney is joined by Adam Carter from StatCity.co.uk and by City fan Joe Butterfield to assess the damage and deal with the fallout from the disappointment (that a lot of people saw coming!). How badly are Pep Guardiola's hands tied at the moment with all the injuries? And how much is this autumn blip like previous autumn blips? The Athletic's noticer-in-chief, Jon Mackenzie, joins the show to analyse the issues City have right now, beyond all the injuries. City ruined another one of David's birthdays this week (and, coincidentally Adam and Joe's birthdays, too) - so we hear from some of the podcast regulars about times when City have made birthday celebrations uncomfortable viewing. Plus some discussion on player of the season so far, City-leaning TV pundits, and players we had been really excited about but who never lived up to expectation. ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon.

It's probably fair to say that Manchester City have had better weeks... David Mooney is joined by City fan KC and the Daily Mail's Jack Gaughan to try and work out what went wrong at both Bournemouth and Sporting. Why have transitions become such a problem, even more than they were earlier in the season? Do City need to be better creating chances and do others need to help Erling Haaland with the goals? Why are they losing control of games in crucial spells? All of that in the show. In losing to Bournemouth, City's longest Premier League unbeaten record came to an end - so which teams are left that have never won against City in the Premier League and which teams did City take the longest to get the better of in the division? Adam Carter from StatCity.co.uk provides the answers. With Brighton on the horizon, The Athletic's Brighton correspondent, Andy Naylor, speaks to the show to tell us about their start to the season. And with the US election dominating the news, Joey and Mulv from the Noisy Neighbours podcast join the show for a chat about American presidents and City links. Plus, do City need a decision on Guardiola's future soon? ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon.
