Manchester City expect Scott Carson to be ready when called upon, after signing the goalkeeper up to another year at the Etihad.
Liverpool FC legend explains how Man City have learnt from Jurgen Klopp's mistakes
07.05.2023 - 17:27 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler believes Manchester City are determined to not allow their team to become overgrown with older players unlike his former club.
Jurgen Klopp's team have struggled to keep pace with the Premier League title contenders despite battling for a quadruple last season. In contrast, Pep Guardiola's side have enjoyed yet another brilliant season.

"They have six players aged 23 or under who’ve made at least 20 appearances this season. Add [Ruben] Dias and Rodri to that, and they’ve got almost an entire outfield team with many years left in them.
"Yet that’s not the reason I’d suggest the rest
