Manchester City fans in the Transfer Tavern will have been delighted with how their season has gone, however, they will have been disappointed with the team’s blip in the Champions League.
Pep Guardiola’s side coasted to a Premier League title and blitzed every record that was in sight, but they fell short in European competition, which will be on the minds of the locals in the bar.

According to a report in The Sun, Guardiola is prepared to take on Barcelona for teenage sensation Moriba Kourouma, who has been dubbed as the next ‘Yaya Toure’. The 15-year-old is already a part of the famed La Maisa academy, however, the City boss is willing to pay him a big salary as soon as is physically possible.
