Manchester City are a team from Manchester, England who play in the Premier League. I started to follow them when I was just watching TV with my brother going through the channels, and saw soccer was on and decided to watch. The game was Manchester City vs Liverpool, I wanted Manchester City to win because my favorite color is blue and that was the color of their kits. Ever since then I have followed this team through some good times and some disappointing times. The season I started watching them was the 2010/2011 season which ended Manchester City finishing 3rd in the league and winning the FA cup, it is a tournament with all the teams in England compete in. Winning the FA cup ended the club's 35 year trophy drought. The following season Manchester City beat local rivals 6-1 away from home and beat them narrowly to the league title in dramatic fashion. On the final day all Manchester City had to do was beat a struggling Queens Park Rangers team, it was easier said than done. It was the 90th minute of the game with five minutes of injury time, and Manchester City were down 2-1. In those five minutes goals from Edin Džeko and Sergio Agüero made the game 3-2 for Manchester City to clinch the title. The Following 2012/2013 season was unfortunately disappointing with Manchester City finishing 2nd in the league to Manchester United and losing in the FA final to Wigan Athletic a team who would get relegated from the top division just a few days later. Since then things have been better winning the league again in 2014 and winning the two Capital One Cups a separate tournament from the FA Cup in 2014 and 2016. And with our current manager Pep Guardiola the future is looking bright for Manchester City.
