Manchester City is 1/4 or so of their way through their 2017/18 campaign. They’re 5 points clear of their nearest rival (both geographically and in the standings) in the Premier League.

They are still alive in both domestic cups and have qualified for the knockout stage of the Champions League. Pep & Co. are also playing beautiful football and scoring at a historic clip. The first 25% of this season has been a real treat for City fans! There’s still a long way to go but if the rest of the season is anything like these first games we could witness some truly remarkable events!
