Manchester City return to Premier League action with a clash against Tottenham on Saturday, following a brilliant away performance in the Champions League in midweek.
Man City's 2021/22 Premier League season simulated after quiet January transfer window
06.02.2022 - 23:21 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Following the closure of the January transfer window, Man City will be hoping to extend their advantage at the top of the Premier League table this weekend.
City are currently nine points ahead of rivals Liverpool and have the best defensive record in the league with just 14 goals conceded in 23 games so far this season. Guardiola's side only made the one signing in the January transfer window, with Julian Alvarez signing for £14million from River Plate on a five-and-a-half-year deal, but he will remain on loan at River until the end of the season, before linking up with the City squad in the summer.
So, what could happen in the remainder of the 2021/22 Premier League season for Guardiola's side? And, will their lack of signings have an impact on the rest of their season?
Let’s see what happened!
To simulate the remainder of the season, we used the Football Manager 2022 editor to update all teams, managers and playing squads of all Premier League teams. We then simulated from the end of the January transfer window in-game until the end of the 2021/22 season.
We used the Football Manager 2022 editor to replicate the current Premier League table as it is in real life, with the correct results for every fixture so far in the 2021/22 season. All in-game statistics shown from our simulated season are taken between February 1st, 2021 to May 31st, 2021.
Here's what happened.
It was a brilliant season overall for City, who continued their fine form into the remainder of the season following a quiet January transfer window, with Kevin De Bruyne standing out as the best performer under Guardiola.
The Belgian playmaker registered a total of 21 assists in the 2021/22 season for City, bettering his Premier League record of 20
