The Citizens are only fourth in the league following a shock draw at Wolves, but on the whole they continue to impress, and they have had the most shots of any club by far. Pep Guardiola’s men have pulled the trigger 91 times - resulting in a league-high 11 goals so far. The three teams above City in the actual table are Chelsea, Liverpool and Watford. The first two of those clubs are in second and third on the table ranked by shots, with the Blues taking 76 and the Reds hitting 66.

Manchester City’s Tosin Adarabioyo is a reported target for West Brom boss Darren Moore.
Born Abdul-Nasir Oluwatosin Adarabioyo, the highly rated defender grew up in Manchester and slowly made his way through ‘the Citizens’ youth teams.
West Brom set to secure deal for Manchester City starlet Tosin Adarabioyo
He eventually graduated into the under-21s in January 2016 making 44 appearances in Premier League 2, 19 in the UEFA Youth League, and 10 in the FA Youth Cup.
For the first team, Adarabioyo has made one FA Cup appearance, one in Champions League Qualifying, three in the EFL Cup, and another three in the Champions League.
Here’s the full story of the young defender by Birmingham Live's Pearce Bates.
Pep Guardiola's view
“One or two months ago, when we finished the season, I was sent a lot of highlights about the academy players; about Tosin, Brandon Barker, Bersant Celina, Manu Garcia and Aleix Garcia.
“We had an idea about them and trained with them all pre-season. Tosin has a lot of steps to get him better. It’s not done, but he has all the quality.
“He is fast, strong in the air, and has the quality to look forward behind the line for the next pass. He definitely has a future in the first team.
“He is a nice guy, his mind is open, he listens, he trains every day like it’s the last training of his life and I like to work with these kinds of players a lot.
“He has his whole career ahead of him. He doesn’t have to defend anything, saying; ‘I did that, I was this, I won this’. Against true, tough teams - Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich - he played very well.
“He has a lot of things to improve and I hope we can help him to develop his skills.”
Splashing the cash
Despite never having started a Premier League game, the youngster finds himself on £25,000 a week and has chosen to spend his new found wealth on a £2 million mansion.
The player bought his new Cheshire home in January and it consists of six bedrooms, five bathrooms, a home cinema, and a gym across three stories.
