It’s been a busy start to the year so far, with plenty of goals, awards and milestones catching our eye.
Here, we take a look at some of our favourite social media moments from recent weeks…

WATCH: City 3-0 Wolves | Highlights
Young Guns
First up, we begin with our Under-21s’ Checkatrade success.
Paul Harsley’s side have reached the quarter-final and are set to face Sunderland at the Stadium of Light in the final eight of the competition.
Ian Poveda’s goal against Barnsley in the Round of 32 particularly caught our eye, and did so of the media too!
Take a look and see what you think…
This Man City U21 goal is so good that we are lost for words 😶

Mini Sterling
Is there anything cuter than Raheem Sterling’s son, Thiago, playing football?
Oh, and how good is his touch?! Future star in the making, we think!
Raheem Sterling’s 1 year old son already has unbelievable technique 👏 @sterling7 pic.twitter.com/2ATqBtaWM9

Goals, goals, goals
7-0 and 9-0 for Pep’s side, 4-2 for our Under-21s in the Checktatrade Trophy and 7-1 in the Continental Cup – it’s fair to say we haven’t been short of goals in recent weeks!
No surprise that you guys are loving it!

Another Blue hit their City 100 recently, when Demi Stokes ran-out for the 100th time in a City shirt against West Ham in our FA Women’s Super League clash.
What an achievement. Well done, Demi!
