Here's a short introduction about this season's teams, some predictions and betting advice!
Manchester City FC
Last season:
After a shaky start to the season the Man City machine got going some time into the season. The team were struggling at times with Sergio Aguero’s out injured but Yaya Toure carried the team through the rough times with some help from Edin Dzeko’s goal scoring. That led to the team winnings their second title in three year at the end of the season.
2014/15-season preview:
This summer the club has been quieter in the transfer market than usual. Eliaquim Mangala, Fernando (both Porto), Willy Caballero (Malaga) and Bacary Sagna (Arsenal) are the first team players being brought in. Also Frank Lampard is joining on a 6-months loan deal from the clubs affiliate club New York City. The move was very surprise with Lampard spending most of his career playing for Chelsea. The team has also managed to keep all their key players from last years winning squad.
Player profile:
After playing in a more defensive role during his Barcelona year Yaya Toure finally has been able to show of all his skills after joining Man City. Making goals, assists and other impressive displays last season the Ivorian international once again proved why he is on of the most complete midfielders in the world.
Summary:
Man City are the reign champions going into the season and are together with Chelsea the main favourites of winning the title. Can key players such as Aguero, Toure and Silva stay fresh there is nothing saying they can’t clinch a second consecutive title this year.
Prediction:
3rd place
