They've had their year off.

Yup. A look at their subs bench and it will be obvious they will be up there, Rodri and foden both out also

Lovely scene at Wolves for their 18 and LFC's 20

Very ominous looking already. City had a bung season in 2019-20 and 24-25, and there's every sign that normal service has resumed.
The rest can start planning for a title tilt in 2029.  ::)

Captain Obvious

Jury remains out on Manchester City simply beat what was in front of them tonight.  That game said more about Wolves who will struggle to avoid the drop this season.

City won't have the minerals when playing Liverpool.

1. Based on recent history there's a 6 out of 8 chance City have more minerals than Liverpool.

2. Based on same recent history there's a 0% chance that Liverpool will back up a winning season with another one.

3. Leagues are rarely won on head to head, but more on the domination of the 14-16 weaker teams. As city have proven for years.

Not in Anfield. Just two wins for City in their last 27 matches there and one of those wins was played in empty Anfield due to covid.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

The 6 out of 8 refers to league titles, not matches.

Can Scouse outplay City? No doubt. They're a brilliant team. But there's a 75% chance it won't matter over the season. Numbers are more important than minerals.

Liverpool finished 13 points ahead of City in 1 of the last 1 seasons. Based on numbers and recent history there is a 100% chance this will happen again this year.

Eze needs his asthma inhaler before he goes on the pitch for a few puffs.

Keith Andrews is going to be the first manager to be sacked isn't he.
Tomorrow is not guaranteed

 Chelsea players go down very easily but then again shit is always good for the ground.

Arsenal 1-0 ahead in a half Man United looked the better team. Awful Goalkeeping on the games only goal.
