Jack Gaughan the Northern Sports reporter for The Daily Mail makes his 4th guest spot returning to talk all things Manchester City with CrunkChocolate in a hilarious, laidback, and informative episode

TOPICS:

- Intro

- Does Manchester City end the season in a top 5 position in the Premier League?

- Ticket price problem at Man City and Premier League. Man City and the league are profitable businesses. Why do they seem so interested in taking out the every day, local fanbase? Are we at a point of no return?

- Ederson has dealt with injuries for almost a year. We know how important he is to how Pep wants to play. Can he be relied on anymore? Are there talks of him leaving?

- In our first ever recording you gave me pushback when I wasn’t sold on James McAtee. Pep recently said how he would like James to stay. Have you seen growth from the player this season? Does Pep mean those words or is he trying to raise the transfer fee?

- Morgan Gibbs-White is an undeniable talent. The rumored fee to bring him to Man City feels heavy to me. Is he worth the price? Is there a more affordable English player Man City could bring in?

- Are you coming to the States for the Club World Cup? Thoughts on the competition? How will Manchester City handle the transfer window while in a competition?
