Turbulent times for Manchester City

Man City 0 Middlesbrough 2: FA Cup Fourth Round. Patrick Bamford helped Jose Mourinho’s protege Aitor Karanka mastermind one of the most stunning upsets on a day of FA Cup giant-killing, then predicted that the original Special One will inflict further misery on a Manchester City season that is rapidly spiralling out of control.

City kicked off the fourth-round defeat against the Championship side just 19 hours after stepping off a long-haul flight back from a warm-weather training camp in Abu Dhabi.
