Training: Back to work as City switch focus to Bournemouth

It was straight back to work for City on Monday as Pep Guardiola's squad got back to business in the wake of Sunday’s superb start to the new Premier League campaign.

Less than 12 hours after our hugely impressive 2-0 victory away at West Ham, the lads were back at the CFA as attention switches to this weekend’s first home game of the season.

City will entertain newly-promoted Bournemouth at the Etihad on Saturday afternoon seeking to build on what was an excellent all-round display at the London Stadium.

It was a memorable start to the 2022/23 campaign with Erling Haaland bagging a brace of goals on what his Premier League debut.

Appropriately enough, blue skies and sunshine were the order of the day with the squad in great spirits as they went about their business.
