Man City

Pep Guardiola had called for more passion from Manchester City players and fans, and got that in an Erling Haaland-inspired 3-0 victory over Wolves.

Guardiola did see his side double their lead inside five minutes of the restart as Gundogan had his heels clipped by Ruben Neves inside the box and Haaland made no mistake when sending Sa the wrong way from the penalty spot. City thought they should have had a shot at adding a second before the break, but Jack Grealish’s penalty shouts fell on deaf ears and failed to convince those in the VAR booth – with the England winger then seeing a strike cleared off the line in stoppage-time. Following a number of half-chances and ambitious efforts from distance, Haaland opened the scoring five minutes before half-time.

The hat-trick man is back – if he was ever away. Erling Haaland's fourth Premier League treble swept him to 25 competition goals, 31 in all, and may signal ...

At the final whistle all of a City persuasion were next to do what is anathema: cheer on their [city rivals](https://www.theguardian.com/football/live/2023/jan/22/arsenal-v-manchester-united-premier-league-live-score-updates) to beat the Gunners and further up the intrigue in the title race. It was immaterial to the result but not to the manager, just one more illustration of how driven he is. The goalkeeper’s lazy pass was mopped up by Mahrez and he tapped to the Norwegian who was never going to miss from yards out. This all began at the opening corner when two Nélson Semedo tussles with John Stones had the latter down and meant City’s love of fluidity had to overcome a disruptor. The numbers are incredible but the reality is still we are a bit behind Arsenal.” “It is just one game, we will see in the future.

Pep Guardiola has revealed why Phil Foden played no part in Manchester City's matchday squad for their 3-0 Premier League victory over Wolves.

It has been a bit up and down and is a little bit uncomfortable so we decided with the doctors to rest it. Jack Grealish and Riyad Mahrez also caught the eye in attacking roles, but Foden was restricted to a spectator brief as he watched on from the stands.

John Stones accepts Manchester City had some wrongs to put right after manager Pep Guardiola rounded on the players last week.

“We had to move forward quickly and it was a great day to put things right. It is more important to have clean sheets. We have four exciting and difficult months. We have got to learn from these things and it happens in football. “We have to do better to get more chances and then take advantage of them. He’s got plenty more to come.

But three goals were more than enough for the three points to put pressure on Arsenal ahead of their clash at home to Manchester United later on Sunday. Guardiola quickly took the chance to give his star striker a rest as Haaland was replaced on the hour mark by Julian Alvarez to Wolves’ relief. The hosts had to come from 2-0 down in a dramatic second half against Spurs, but there was little mystery over the destination of the three points once Haaland had broken Wolves’ resistance five minutes before half-time.

We asked for your opinions after Sunday's game between Manchester City and Wolves at Etihad Stadium. Here are some of your comments: Manchester City.

We have an abundance of midfielders but not a striker apart from the hard-working Podence. Jools: A good result but still not the game that we needed following the derby game. I just think that we need to be moving the ball quicker because that makes a huge difference.

"After we suffered the goal we tried to change a lot of things. "We deserve to lose but I prefer to lose in one way - we have to try to damage the opponent. "In the first half, we were not able to overcome them to arrive in the opposition box. In the second half at least we tried to damage them. "We were frustrated with ourselves and the manager made that clear. "We knew today we had to hit the ground running, set a good tempo and I think we did that." Pep Guardiola had been frustrated with his players in midweek, criticising the lack of fire and there were periods during the first half when that intensity was lacking. His third goal might have been even easier, laid on for him unselfishly by Riyad Mahrez after Sa had passed the ball straight to the winger. Pablo Sarabia had to wait for his full debut, he was among the substitutes. Wolves stifled the home side for much of the first half before Haaland took charge, heading in Kevin De Bruyne's cross. Wolves remain just outside the relegation zone, ahead of Bournemouth on goal difference. The mini drought of two games ended with his header against Tottenham on Thursday evening.

Will the new pieces help Man City keep hold of the Premier League and chase down the final jewel in its infinity gauntlet, the UEFA Champions League title?

(AE) Five players who went to the 2022 World Cup with the USMNT are on this roster (Aaron Long, Walker Zimmerman, Kellyn Acosta, Sean Johnson and Jesus Ferreira) and this camp and games are valuable for MLS-based players to get their fitness up to speed and also prove their worth. (JPW) What a move this would be for a Chelsea team already loaded with attackers, just the latest sign that no one besides (probably) Kai Havertz and Mason Mount are safe in their status with Thomas Tuchel’s Blues. This time around, Lukaku scored 15 goals in 44 appearances (all competitions – 8 in 26 in the Premier League), bringing his Chelsea career total to 15 goals. This is a massive upgrade for Chelsea and proves the ambition of their new owners, as Sterilng will excel in the 3-4-2-1 formation in one of the underneath roles, or even up top as the central striker. His quality is clear for all to see and he would slot in well to the 3-4-2-1 system and is very comfortable on the ball and coming out of the back to start attacks. It is reported (below) that Chelsea will pay the Norwegian side $12.7 million for Fofana. The focus at Chelsea will likely now be on selling players and they will have to move on a lot of fringe players to offset this huge spending spree. Up in north London, calls for Antonio Conte to be fired have come from fans following recent results, leaving Tottenham with an uncertain future and Manchester City next on the fixture list (again). Tottenham (33 points – 5th place), meanwhile, will try to end their losing skid at two games and keep within touching distance of 4th-place Manchester United (39 points). The 27-year-old is in the final year of his contract, which means he’ll come at a bargain price ($15-20 million).
