CITY SLICKERS! The Blues who are making the difference

CITY are 45 games into the 2023/24 season.

- SIMON BAJKOWSKI

Pep Guardiola’s side have worked their way into a position where, with two months of the season remaining, they still have a chance of winning the Treble.

They have at least 13 games left in all competitions and if all goes as they hope it well that will creep up to 17, ending with consecutive Wembley finals for the FA Cup and the Champions League.

■EDERSON City’s star in the Champions League

knock-outs last season but has struggled to maintain those levels...............6

■ORTEGA

Has done all that he can to push Ederson despite City’s early exit from the Carabao Cup. Impressed against Newcastle and could be given the gloves against Arsenal...........................7

■LEWIS

Stood out in the Champions League group stages and trusted at the Emirates in Rodri’s absence..........................6

■WALKER

A strong comeback this year from the captain. His form has been up and down but his positioning has allowed City to be flexible....................................7

■DIAS

Hasn’t really managed to recapture the form that saw him make all the World XIs................................................7
