In this episode, we recap Manchester City’s dominant 6-0 FA Cup victory over Bournemouth, highlighting the return of a revitalized and confident Khiara Keating, whose crucial early save set the tone for a clean sheet. We break down the clinical finishing of Laura Coombs and Vivianne Miedema before reacting to the Fifth Round draw, which sees the Blues host Sheffield United at the Joie Stadium on the weekend of February 22nd. Finally, we turn our attention to Wednesday’s massive League Cup semi-final against Chelsea. With Andrée Jeglertz’s side on a 16-game unbeaten run, we analyze whether City’s tactical evolution and home advantage are enough to finally dismantle the Chelsea aura and secure a place in the final.

Manchester City Women kick off 2026 exactly where they left off—at the top of the table. In this episode, we break down a clinical 2-0 win over Everton at the Joie Stadium, featuring a mazy solo goal from Kerolin and another clinical finish from the WSL’s all-time leading talent, Vivianne Miedema.

The headlines don't stop on the pitch, though. We dive deep into the club’s massive statement of intent: the signing of USWNT star Sam Coffey from the Portland Thorns. Plus, we celebrate the sight every Cityzen has been waiting for—Mary Fowler is officially back in squad training as she nears her long-awaited return from injury.

Finally, we look ahead to Sunday’s Adobe Women’s FA Cup clash. City travel south to face a history-making AFC Bournemouth side at a sold-out Snows Stadium. Can the Cherries pull off a giant-killing, or will City’s momentum be too much to handle?
