Man City silence Pep Guardiola critics three times in 45 minutes with ruthless Bournemouth response

23 days ago Manchester Evening News

Rodri had fired a shot over beforehand, and Ruben Dias flashed a diving header wide after Haaland saw an effort blocked for a corner. Moments earlier, Haaland had given some instructions to Gundogan, presumably for better service, and within seconds Gundogan saw a threaded ball to the striker cut out. After facing various questions this week, Guardiola saw three major criticisms emphatically silenced in the space of 45 minutes. After two games that saw 35 shots but just two goals, Alvarez was a simple solution to those apparent scoring woes. As fans and pundits panicked this week, Guardiola kept calm and carried on to provide simple and effective solutions to the last two frustrating draws.

'I spent maternity leave in a grand country house'

For nine years, Kat Croxford has had possibly one of the most impressive addresses going: Lyme Park, Cheshire. But she’s not part of the landed gentry - she’s the house and collections manager, a job that means she gets to live in a grand house and among luscious gardens, moorland and a deer park. Lyme Park is a gem in the Trust’s portfolio boasting acres of glorious parkland. But her unusual home set-up has also given her another unique experience: maternity leave in a mansion. She then spent two years at Buckland Abbey near Plymouth and three at Plas Newydd in Anglesey, before moving to Lyme Park in 2013.

Bruno Fernandes has spotted a problem with Erik ten Hag's masterplan at Manchester United

Speaking after the game, Fernandes said this enabled him to make runs forward unlike times when the wide men looked for an option inside. "For me, it is difficult to find those positions when the wingers come inside because I have to make the space for the players around me," he told Amazon Prime. He has seen how effective Fernandes can be when his wingers don’t give in to their urges to cut inside. Antony also looks to have pinned down the right flank position while Sancho and Rashford - both of whom like to come inside - are interchangeable on the left. What seems more likely is Ten Hag allowing his wingers to play their game and asking Fernandes to operate within those parameters for the sake of the team.

Man City can finally unleash secret weapon to navigate next seven fixtures and help Erling Haaland

I don’t handle my emotions the best at times, I sometimes don’t think logically and my impulsiveness gets me into situations that I don’t want to be in."

Thousands of 90s kids crammed into the O2 Apollo in Manchester to see the original trio reunite to reign over British pop once more.
