Man City's hearing on FFP allegations could be a make-or-break moment

The biggest challenge to Manchester City's Premier League dominance was due to start on Monday at a hearing into a slew alleged financial breaches. On the line is City's reputation and punishment could be as extreme as expulsion from the league. City, which has won the last four league titles, denies the charges, which include providing misleading information about its finances. It will be down to a team of lawyers to clear the club's name and finally quash accusations that have cast a cloud over its unprecedented period of success. Manager Pep Guardiola confirmed on Friday that the long-awaited hearing into more than 100 charges of alleged financial wrongdoing was due to start. I'm happy it's starting on Monday. I know there will be more rumors, he said. Everybody is innocent until guilt is proven. The chargesCity was accused by the Premier League in February last year of providing misleading information about its finances over a nine-year period between 2009-18 after it was boug

Erik Ten Hag under scrutiny after Manchester United's loss against Brighton

Two games into the Premier League season, and the scrutiny is already back on Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag. Joao Pedro scored in the fifth minute of injury time to give Brighton a 2-1 home win over United on Saturday in a game that showed that the inconsistencies that plagued Ten Hag's team last season still haven't been eradicated. After United failed to clear a corner, Pedro headed home a cross from Simon Adingra to secure a second straight victory for Brighton at the start of its first season under 31-year-old coach Fabian Hurzeler. The two leading title rivals also made it two wins out of two with shows of strength. Erling Haaland scored his seventh Premier League hat trick in Manchester City's 4-1 win over Ipswich, while Arsenal earned a 2-0 win at Aston Villa a team it lost to twice last season before losing the title by two points to City. Like Ten Hag, Sean Dyche could also be feeling the early pressure after his Everton side slumped to another heavy defeat, los

Gundogan set for Man City return after reportedly agreeing to leave Barca

Manchester City and Ilkay Gundogan look set to be reunited. The former Germany midfielder was pictured at the airport on Wednesday and was reportedly catching a flight from Barcelona to Manchester to wrap up his return to City on a one-year deal, with the option of another 12 months. Neither City nor Barcelona have commented publicly on any deal for the 33-year-old Gundogan. Gundogan left City after the 2022-23 season, during which he was captain of the team that won the Premier League-FA Cup-Champions League treble. He spent seven years at the English club but decided to move to Barcelona for a new challenge, and was one of Xavi Hernndez's favourite players during his sole season with the Catalan club. But, Barcelona's delicate economic situation appears to have forced the new coach, Hansi Flick, to part ways with the veteran playmaker. Gundogan's exit should help Barcelona register new midfielder Dani Olmo, which it has so far been unable to do because of the Spanish league's ..

Man City's Phil Foden and Khadija Shaw voted PFA player of the year

Manchester City duo Phil Foden and Khadija Shaw were voted the men's and women's player of the year in English soccer for last season at the Professional Footballers' Association awards. The 24-year-old Foden helped Man City win a fourth consecutive Premier League title, scoring 19 times and providing eight assists. Shaw was the top scorer in the Women's Super League as the Jamaican forward netted 21 goals, although City lost the title on goal difference to Chelsea. Foden and Shaw also won the equivalent award from the Football Writers' Association, which is voted on by journalists. The PFA winners are selected by professional players. Chelsea attacking midfielder Cole Palmer was voted the men's PFA young player of the year, with Manchester United midfielder Grace Clinton winning the women's prize after her performances on loan at Tottenham last season. Palmer was second only to City's Erling Haaland in the Premier League scoring charts with 22 goals and also had more assists than

Man City facing tumultuous season in bid to defend Premier League title

Manchester City's reign of dominance in the Premier League is like nothing previously seen in the 136-year history of England's top division. The Abu Dhabi-owned club is hunting a record-extending fifth straight title under Pep Guardiola and his squad of superstars when the season starts on Friday. The world might be about to discover if it comes with a catch. So much is hanging over City heading into what promises to be a tumultuous year for the serial champions, whatever happens on the field. Can City hold off Arsenal for a third season in a row and perhaps a Liverpool team under a new coach in its post-Jurgen Klopp era? Will this be the final year in charge for Guardiola? The generational coach's latest contract expires at the end of the season and he is wavering about whether to sign a new one. Is this also the last year for Kevin De Bruyne, the playmaker who has bestridden the Premier League for nearly a decade? Perhaps the big question, though, is this: Will City be punis
