The Morning Footy crew sets the stage for the weekend’s blockbuster Premier League matchup as struggling Manchester City host Chelsea. With Kyle Walker’s departure raising eyebrows, what does it say about Pep Guardiola’s squad stability? And what’s going on with Phil Foden? The team breaks down the dramatic dip in form from the star midfielder compared to last season.

Meanwhile, can Enzo Maresca’s youthful Chelsea side take advantage of City’s vulnerabilities and pile on the pressure against the reigning champions?
