Elliot Anderson cost a club-record sum and several of the old guard have left, yet the sight of Erling Haaland leading the line remains reassuringly familiar.

That short figure respects a stacked squad, although this isn't simply Guardiola's team with a different man holding the tactics board.

Although Arsenal ended up seven points clear, City still banked 78 points and won twice at Wembley when trophies were on the table.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaaland is the obvious source of confidence. His 2025/26 return read 26 league goals and 37 in total, numbers most strikers would happily take in their finest season. Another Golden Boot is priced at 4/6*. A City title paired with Haaland as top scorer is 5/1*.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt won't all fall neatly into place. Following City's most successful manager is pressure enough before you factor in a midfield rebuild and the know-how that walked out of the door. Then came a 3-0 Community Shield defeat to Arsenal. A meaningless friendly it was not, even if August offers plenty of time to respond.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStill, look at the attacking choices. Haaland can be supported by Antoine Semenyo, Rayan Cherki, Jeremy Doku and Phil Foden. Anderson should add legs and bite in midfield.

Second in the league and out of Europe by March sounds disappointing. Two winners' medals tell a very different story.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheir league form came in waves. City stayed close enough to keep Arsenal looking over their shoulder, but the gap eventually grew to seven points. A final-day defeat against Aston Villa left the Blues on 78.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWembley brought the payback. Nico O'Reilly's brace settled the EFL Cup final against Arsenal, with City winning 2-0. Chelsea were their opponents in the FA Cup final and one goal was enough. Guardiola duly walked away with a domestic double in his last campaign.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaaland's 37 goals led the way. Cherki supplied the invention, Foden chipped in and O'Reilly's knack for a big moment proved invaluable. At the other end, Gianluigi Donnarumma gave City an imposing presence between the posts.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEurope supplied the sore point.
