Rooney Reviews…Man City: Why I Want Pep to STAY & Are City Title FAVOURITES? | The Wayne Rooney Show

We have an in-depth Manchester City special for this episode and so Wayne, Kelly and Kae are joined by former City midfielder Michael Brown and podcaster David Mooney.

They assess how City’s season has unfolded so far and whether they’ve hit the standards expected of serial winners. They discuss whether City will catch Arsenal in the Premier League title race and what experience of winning multiple trophies does psychologically when the pressure moments arrive in the run-in.

There’s a major focus on the future of Pep Guardiola: will this be his final season in Manchester? How much might his decision hinge on whether City win silverware?

The group also tackles the big off-field question: how the 115 charges for allegedly breaching Premier League financial rules – strongly denied by Manchester City – could influence Guardiola’s thinking, and whether a guilty verdict could make his departure more likely. Wayne explains whether he hopes Pep remains in the league and reveals how he would feel if he were retrospectively awarded a Premier League winners’ medal depending on the outcome of the case.

On the pitch, the group also looks at why Phil Foden’s form has dipped. Is he a victim of tactical evolution, squad rotation, or both? And would he play more minutes at another elite club?

There’s a chat around whether City are maximising Erling Haaland’s talents this season and a look at the impact and importance of January additions Marc Guéhi and Antoine Semenyo, and what they bring to Guardiola’s squad.
