Detective Dog

Season 15, Episode 10,   Oct 06, 2023, 12:43 AM

Ball-carrying vs. Controlling players... and is City's squad too small? We also pay tribute to the late Francis Lee.

After a defeat at Wolves and a win at RB Leipzig, David Mooney is joined by Adam Carter from StatCity.co.uk and Dom Farrell from Sporting News to discuss the major talking points. They focus on Rico Lewis after his excellent midweek performance and there's a look at how City can solve the Rodri problem.

Does City's set-up change dramatically with a difference in players available? We discuss ball-carrying players vs. controlling players - and we look at how injuries and suspensions have forced Guardiola's hand on that in the last week.

Is City's squad too small? We look into that, too, as the manager has been speaking about that - and that leads us into previewing the upcoming tie with Arsenal. How will City look to get the better of the Gunners.

The writer and football historian, Gary James, is also on the show, as we pay tribute to the City legend Francis Lee, who died this week.
