Check out the best pictures from Saturday’s training at the City Football Academy...
City make the short trip to Old Trafford on Sunday when we face Manchester United in a 16:30 (UK) kick-off.
The firsts keep coming for Enzo Maresca as City boss and this time it’s his maiden Manchester derby in charge, although it’s the 199th of all time.
But he knows exactly what it means to the fans and he was pushing his players on Saturday to make sure we’re ready for the explosive encounter.
City go into the match in fine form with three wins from our opening three Premier League encounters and on the back of an impressive win at FC Porto in midweek.
And the squad was working hard to ensure we are in good shape for our five-mile trip across the city.
