Training: City get back to business

With the September international programme now out of the way, City’s squad have begun to reconvene at the CFA as the focus returns to domestic matters.

Our immediate attention is trained on this Saturday’s Premier League clash with Brentford at the Etihad.

City will go into the game looking to build on what has been a perfect start to the season so far with Pep Guardiola’s side collecting three wins out of three.

And, as Wednesday’s gallery illustrates, the players were in great spirits as they went about their work – despite the best efforts of some squally September showers!

Check out the best of the action as the players returned to the CFA via the gallery below…
