Key Transfers
Erling Haaland / £51.2m / Borussia Dortmund
City won the league last season without a centre-forward but Haaland is a fantastic signing. Haaland will need service and City might have to adapt their style of play but it should be a match made in heaven. 5/5
Kalvin Phillips / £42m / Leeds
The England defensive midfielder was plagued by injuries in 2021/22 but if he's put those issues behind him then his physicality, passing range and tactical awareness should help him make a positive difference for City in the middle of the park. 4/5
Stefan Ortega / Free / Arminia Bielefeld
The German goalkeeper could prove a dependable No.2 for City having registered the second highest save percentage in the Bundesliga last season. 3/5
Gavin Bazunu

Insights
Pep Guardiola's Manchester City have proved too hot to handle for Premier League defences, averaging 97 goals per season over the last five campaigns.
City won all ten of their games against the bottom five last term by an aggregate score of 36-2.
No team has kept more Premier League clean sheets than City in each of the last three seasons. The Citizens have recorded a combined 51 shutouts in that time.
New signing Erling Haaland is the leading candidate for the Golden Boot having scored 86 goals in 89 games for previous club Borussia Dortmund, although no foreign player has ever finished topscorer in their debut Premier League season.
Season Verdict
Manchester City held off Liverpool in a high-class title race to claim their fourth Premier League triumph in five seasons and they are worthy favourites again. The signing of superstar striker Erling Haaland offers another dimension to an attacking unit who have averaged 2.55 goals per league game over the past five years and City have the depth and quality to retain their crown.
