A third Premier League defeat in a row isn’t exactly the best preparation for an international break, so David Mooney is joined by Dom Farrell from Sporting News and by the BBC football correspondent John Murray to stew on it all.
Why were City so open at Nottingham Forest and why were a team that haven’t been able to score or win at home all season able to find it so easy to both score and win? We try to get to the bottom of it all.
This isn’t the first time ‘Dr City’ has turned up and nursed an opponent back to health, so we dig through the archives to find some of the more recent times when the opposition have hit form after breaking their duck against City.
And given Rayan Cherki’s goal at the City Ground, we’re looking at the best City consolation strikes.
