Training: Focus switches back to the title race

Check out the best training images ahead of Saturday’s Premier League clash with Chelsea.

After our midweek trip to Copenhagen in the Champions League, our focus moves back to the title race.

And it’s another tough test as Mauricio Pochettino brings his side to the Etihad for the 17:30 (UK) kick-off.

While the season may not have gone as planned for Chelsea who currently sit 10th, their recent form has picked up with four victories from their last six Premier League matches.

City too are in great form, winning our last 11 matches in all competitions, and the side are determined to extend that run further.

So there was plenty of hard work at the CFA on Friday as we get ourselves ready for another huge game.
