Under manager Manuel Pellegrini, Manchester City won the Premier League, claiming their second top-flight title in three seasons. The squad combined attacking flair and depth, with Sergio Agüero, Yaya Touré, David Silva, and Edin Džeko leading the charge. City dominated domestically, scoring prolifically and setting several club records, including consecutive wins. In cup competitions, they captured the League Cup, defeating Sunderland 3–1 in the final, while their FA Cup run ended in the semi-finals. Pellegrini’s tactical approach emphasised possession, pressing, and pace, establishing Manchester City as a dominant force in English football and consolidating their rise under the Abu Dhabi ownership era.
