Manchester City news

Gary Neville has ranked Manchester City's new goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma above Arsenal's David Raya and compared the Italian with former Manchester stars Peter Schmeichel and Edwin van der Sar. Neville labelled the former Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper an "absolute animal" after watching him shine in City's 1-1 draw with Arsenal on Sunday.

Bernardo Silva has claimed that Arsenal had an "unfair advantage" over Manchester City during their Premier League clash at the Emirates on Sunday. The match ended in a 1-1 draw after Gabriel Martinelli's dramatic 93rd-minute equaliser cancelled out Erling Haaland's early goal in the first half, with the Gunners extending their unbeaten run against City to six matches.

Bayern Munich's stunning appointment of Pep Guardiola in 2013 was a "masterpiece of discretion," according to former CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. He has now revealed how the deal was kept secret even from the club's sporting director and was finalised when Uli Hoeness flew to New York to get the contract signed.

Pep Guardiola has joked that Manchester City are now a “transition team”, with the demanding Catalan coach reacting to a battling draw at Arsenal that saw the Blues post the lowest possession stats of his 10-year tenure. Guardiola admits that he needs to get “spirit” back in his team after seeing them make a slow start to the 2025-26 Premier League season.

Arsenal and Manchester City played out a dramatic 1-1 draw on Sunday, with the two Premier League rivals unable to be separated through 98 or so minutes. Erling Haaland had given the visitors an early lead, before Pep Guardiola remarkably decided to park the bus to try and sneak the win. Those efforts went up in smoke in added time as Gabriel Martinelli scored to clinch a point for the Gunners.

Mikel Arteta has defended Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres after another quiet outing in a big game, as the Gunners bagged a late equaliser in a 1-1 draw against Manchester City at the Emirates. The £64 million summer signing failed to register a single shot or create any real danger against Pep Guardiola's side, leaving frustrated fans questioning his impact.

Arsenal were dealt a scare during their 1-1 draw with Manchester City on Sunday as Noni Madueke, their most dangerous attacker in the first half, was substituted at the break. Mikel Arteta revealed after the game that the winger, who has impressed in recent weeks while deputising for Bukayo Saka, suffered an injury that prevented him from playing on into the second half.

Pep Guardiola set a career-worst statistic in Manchester City's 1-1 draw with Arsenal at the Emirates. Erling Haaland's first-half goal looked like it would secure the visitors all three points but Gabriel Martinelli's stoppage-time equaliser ensured it was honours even on Sunday. As a result, the ex-Barcelona boss reached a new personal low as a manager.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola seemed to take a leaf out of his great managerial rival Jose Mourinho's book with a park the bus-like approach, but it came back to haunt them in a 1-1 draw at Arsenal. Erling Haaland was at his ruthless best but was taken off surprisingly early on Sunday as Gabriel Martinelli cancelled out his opener in dramatic fashion at the death.

Arsenal left it late to secure a 1-1 draw against Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday, with Gabriel Martinelli coming off the bench to equalise in added time. The result leaves the Gunners five points adrift of early table-toppers and reigning champions Liverpool having won three, drawn one and lost one of their opening five matches this season.

Manchester City gifted a luxurious car worth £280k to ex-sporting director Txiki Begiristain as the Spaniard left the Premier League giants after 13 years. On August 1, City formally announced the departure of their former director of football. Begiristain oversaw the most successful era in City's history as under his leadership the club won 21 major men's titles.

Bukayo Saka is in contention to feature in Arsenal’s heavyweight clash with Manchester City on Sunday after returning to first-team training ahead of the game. The forward has missed the Gunners last three fixtures in all competitions against Liverpool, Nottingham Forest and Athletic Club after picking up a hamstring injury in his side’s 5-0 Premier League victory over Leeds on August 23.

Manchester City star Ruben Dias insisted that he does not care about the newly formed rivalry with Arsenal as the Portuguese defender seeks revenge of the 5-1 loss against the Gunners at Emirates Stadium from last season. Mikel Arteta's side have enjoyed a much superior record against Guardiola's men in recent times as they are unbeaten in their last five head-to-head meetings.
