Man City fans boo Premier League anthem in defiant response to financial charges
Manchester City fans roundly booed the Premier League anthem before their fixture against Aston Villa, in the Blues' first game since being charged with multiple breaches of financial regulations.
City were rocked this week when the Premier League charged them with over 100 breaches, with a commission ordered to judge whether they have any merit. The club said they welcomed the chance to prove their innocence, and Pep Guardiola launched an extraordinary attack on the Premier League and the division's other 19 clubs for condemning City before they had been found guilty.

Man City issue Erling Haaland update for Arsenal after Ruben Dias call
Pep Guardiola does not think that Erling Haaland is injured but will wait to see what the Manchester City doctors say this week.
The No.9 came off at half-time in the 3-1 win over Villa, having not taken a penalty kick that the manager wanted him to and seeming to suffer a few knocks. He had treatment on a thigh midway through the half after a collision with Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez, and was not seen for the second half.
Guardiola could not confirm whether the striker will be fit for the top-of-the-table clash with Arsenal. However, the fact that he would have kept Haaland on if City hadn't been 3-0 ahead at half-time indicated the manager's confidence that all will be well.
