Alex James and Simon Bajkowski break down a surreal and defiant weekend for Manchester City on the latest edition of the Talking City podcast.

Despite the noise surrounding the club's guilty verdict and hypothetical points deductions, Enzo Maresca's squad made a massive statement with a dominant 3-0 victory over Liverpool at Anfield.

Alex and Si analyse how City took control in the second half, heavily featuring Jeremy Doku's brilliant performance and defining goal celebration.
