There may have been no game for the first-team this weekend but that doesn't mean there's a break from training.

As always, the players were hard at work at the City Football Academy, preparing for Saturday’s trip to Burnley, and Club photographer Sharon Latham was on hand to snap the session.

Here are the best of the photos from this morning’s events, which included a few of the youngsters. See if you can spot them...

“Keeping” his eye on the ball - get it?! (Sorry...)
