Call Your Momma
We’re big fans of pieces by the Players’ Tribune. Their latest offering is extra special as it features our very own Gabriel Jesus.
The Brazilian talks us through his life – from his upbringing in Peri Jardim to his footballing journey – and his time at City, including the true meaning of his ‘telephone’ celebration.
An absolute must-read. Here’s the article in full.
Fantastic Phil
An incredible week for helping City to the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup with a penalty shoot-out victory over Leicester.
With a World Cup gold medal, plus the Golden Ball, and a first-team debut, Stockport-born Foden has enjoyed an exceptional year.
Congratulations, Phil on your award. Richly deserved.
Congratulations to @PhilFoden on winning the BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year award! #mancity pic.twitter.com/sG2CXF4P4X

Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal!
Very cheeky but very good from SPORF, who parody Christmas classic movie Home Alone with Pep Guardiola ‘playing’ the mischievous and clever Kevin McCallister.
It’s the thought process behind this that amuses me most, as if someone was watching the film and commenting on Kevin’s ability to constantly overcome the villainous Harry and Marv.
Somehow, that drew comparisons with Guardiola’s City and thus, this work of art was created…
Christmas Number One
Kudos to Jenny’s mum, who ensures there’ll be a Blue Christmas in their household!
@ManCity When your mum decides that @PepTeam belongs at the top of the tree as well as the league table 👕⚽️🙌🏼 #bluechristmas pic.twitter.com/JlSH82ckJE

Zoology
I have to admit, I cannot explain the meaning of this but I like the description of City as a ‘lion zoo’ – whatever that means…
Manchester City are having a good time, but they’re one lose away to reveal their weaknesses. Now they’re a lion zoo, but if they lose, they will become just an animal zoo where there’s even possible to see Pandas, Penguins and many more like that

A Kun-derful New Year
This is such a brilliant idea. I wonder how many people will put it into action?!
If you watch the Dzeko goal go in against QPR at 11:57:52 on New Year’s Eve, Martin Tyler will say ‘AGUEROOOOOOOOOOO’ at exactly midnight.
