It’s the Wrong Colour! It’s the Wrong Colour!

After two more wins, David Mooney is joined City fan Chris Higginbottom and One Football's Dan Burke to react to the victories over Manchester United and FC Copenhagen. There's a focus on Phil Foden and Erling Haaland, plus we put United's time-wasting under the spotlight... as the Etihad grew increasingly more frustrated as the game went on. Then it's the dreaded trip to Anfield... But have City ever had a better chance of winning there (in front of fans) during Pep Guardiola's time at the club? We discuss that and we also hear from Neil Atkinson from The Anfield Wrap to get his thoughts ahead of the game. ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BlueMoonPodcast

The performances against Bournemouth and Luton were very different - but the outcome was the same. They discuss Erling Haaland's five-goal rout, the relationship between the striker and other players around him, and how the centre of midfield became so much more stable against Luton. Then there's the defence, which mightn't have improved too much but is now keeping a few more clean sheets... work that one out. Sam Rosbottom remembers the very first Manchester Derby at Eastlands, hearing from some of the scorers that afternoon - and then we preview the upcoming ties with Manchester United and FC Copenhagen. There's also a celebration of some of the best commentary lines about City from the telly. ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BlueMoonPodcast

They look at the shape of the team and the issues City have had controlling games this season, plus there's a focus on Erling Haaland, after his goals have been crucial in the last few matches (and his chances crucial against Chelsea).

We also look ahead to the games with Bournemouth and Luton, while former City chairman David Bernstein gives his thoughts on Financial Fair Play Regulations and the Premier League charges. ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BlueMoonPodcast

Manchester City's winning streak continues and to discuss the victories over Everton and Copenhagen, David Mooney is joined by City fan Ciaran Murray and, from The Times, Paul Hirst. The look at the form of Phil Foden, the injury to Jack Grealish, and the impact of Jeremy Doku. We hear our regular guests' favourite counter-attacking goals as we focus on why City choose so often to reject breaking away, in a way that's at odds with what most of football would think to do - and that's after the perfect goal on the counter against Everton. The Athletic's Chelsea correspondent, Liam Twomey, joins the show to discuss the upcoming game on Saturday, we look ahead to the match with Brentford, plus we discuss the moments in the last few years where City have had a stroke of good fortune. ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BlueMoonPodcast

The winter break is over and Manchester City return with one of the most unwinnable games they could ever wish for... Spurs away in the FA Cup. David Mooney is joined by One Football's Dan Burke and the editor of Football 365, Sarah Winterburn, to preview that game, along with the trip to Burnley. We get insight into Spurs from Rosa from the Hometown Glory podcast, while Joe from TurfCast explains why things haven't gone to plan for Burnley this season. Since it's 20 years to the round where City came back from 3-0 down to beat Spurs 4-3 with ten men in an FA Cup replay, we hear from the players involved in that game to get their memories, too. Plus, we round-up the week's news - looking at Omar Berrada's move to Old Trafford, the departure of Kalvin Phillips, and (very briefly) the arrival of Claudio Echeverri from River Plate. ========== To get bonus podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/BlueMoonPodcast
