There will be streams for sure and suspect Sky or BT will cover this "cup/tournie"

Tickets are between $40-$180 plus fees. I briefly considered making the 6 hour drive from Minneapolis to see this.

this whole pre-season tour is gonna be awful. maybe the last match (whenever it is) if we finally incorporate some players like Silva, Bernardo, Ederson, Fernandinho, Jesus, & Aguero.

I see it's on Premier Sports. Which we don't get. Not sure I'll be up at 2am looking for a stream for a team captained by Foden or Adarabioyo

I will be at the game here vs Liverpool. Ended up deciding to because they were offering buy 1 get one free.

Glad to see Bernardo and Mendy will be with the team. Not as bad as I first thought.

Interesting. I always thought pre-season was to integrate players back into the team after a period away whilst bringing them up to date with new tactics/formations and getting them physically ready for the season ahead. There's obviously the PR side and getting us into new markets, but the priority is the team getting themselves into shape.

But what do I know.
In the words of my Old Man, "Life will never be the same without Man City, so get it in while you can".
